ID type mismatch when trying to get

Was just testing my code earlier this morning, and found something I cannot seems to resolve.

My SKU class has a custom ID generator(assinged) to take a String:

static mapping = {
    id generator: 'assigned', name: 'sku'
}

I created a SKU object with ID: "1234445" (Normally my SKU id is a mixture of dashes letters and numbers, but just for testing purposes I used a number as String)

Now whenever I try to do an SKU.get("1234445"), I get the following Error:

Provided id of the wrong type

Expected: class java.lang.String, got class java.lang.Long

Obviously I provided a String, somehow it's treating it as a Long when .get is performed, hence causing the error.

Any ideas on how to resolve this besides not using a String that looks like a number for SKU.id (Sku.sku in my case)?

Sorry for the thread necromancy, but I encountered the same problem recently. As it turns out (thanks to @Peter for the solution) you can workaround the issue by defining String id in addition to the String sku. The following is a little ugly but works:

class Sku {
    String id
    String sku
    static mapping = {
        id name: 'sku', generator: 'assigned'
    }
}

Then in a Spock test:

when:
(new Sku(sku: sku)).save()

then:
Sku.get(sku)

where:
sku << ['12345', 'f00-b4r']

Use String id instead of String sku, if want to use SKU.get("123445")

class SKU {
    String id
    static mapping = {
        id generator: 'assigned'
    }
}

def newSku = new SKU()
newSku.id = '123445'
newSku.save(flush: true)

println SKU.get("123445")

If you need to use sku specifically as the identifier then use

SKU.findBySku("123445")

with the mapping you have right now (as mentioned in the question).

SKU.get("1234445" as String)

should work
