JOOQ Cast String to Enum with Converter inline

As asked here the follow up Question to this #58538732

As suggested by Lukas Eder I wrote an EnumConverter to convert the Integer to a DayOfWeek

public class DOWConverter extends EnumConverter<Integer, DayOfWeek>  {

    public DOWConverter()
    {
        super(Integer.class, DayOfWeek.class);           
    }               
}

The select now looks the following 

DataType<DayOfWeek> typeDOW = SQLDataType.INTEGER.asConvertedDataType(new DOWConverter() /*ERROR*/);
Field<DayOfWeek> fieldDOW = DSL.field("{0}", typeDOW, lecture.DAY_OF_WEEK);

create.select( ..., fieldDOW, ...)...

With the Error Message:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problem:
No enclosing instance of type QueryFeaturesTask is accessible. Must qualify the allocation with an enclosing instance of type QueryFeaturesTask (e.g. x.new A() where x is an instance of QueryFeaturesTask).

As stated, using the Converter at CodeGen Time is currently not an option.

It seems that you placed your DOWConverter inside of another class, thus creating an inner class. I recommend you place the converter at the top level, in its own file, making it a top level class. If you must create a nested class, make sure it is not an inner class by making it static:

public class Enclosing {
    // Make this class here static:
    public static class DOWConverter extends EnumConverter<Integer, DayOfWeek> {
        public DOWConverter() {
            super(Integer.class, DayOfWeek.class);           
        }               
    }
}

Oracle's tutorial on nested classes explains this really well.
