ClassCastException when primarykey is short in greendao

Question

I created an entity which need to identity by Short only.

Here is my generated code:

public Source(Short id, String name) {
    this.id = id;
    this.name = name;
}

TestCode DatabaseHelperTest.java:

public void testInsertAndLoad(){
    Source source = new Source((short) 0, "TestSource");
    SourceDao sourceDao = daoSession.getSourceDao(); //#line 26
    sourceDao.insert(source);
    Short id = source.getId();
    assertNotNull(id);
}

When I run test, I got the ClassCastException:

java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.Short cannot be cast to java.lang.Long

So, does GreenDAO allow to make short become primary key? And, how can I deal with this exception.

Thanks

Update:

DB Generation code

Entity source = schema.addEntity("Source");
Entity category = schema.addEntity("Category");

source.addShortProperty("id").primaryKey().getProperty();
source.addStringProperty("name").notNull();

category.addIntegerProperty("id").primaryKey().getProperty();
category.addStringProperty("name").notNull();
Property csid = category.addLongProperty("sid").notNull().getProperty();

category.addToOne(source, csid);

Source Properties

public static class Properties {
    public final static Property Id = new Property(0, Short.class, "id", true, "ID");
    public final static Property Name = new Property(1, String.class, "name", false, "NAME");
};

Category Properties

public static class Properties {
    public final static Property Id = new Property(0, Integer.class, "id", true, "ID");
    public final static Property Name = new Property(1, String.class, "name", false, "NAME");
    public final static Property Sid = new Property(2, short.class, "sid", false, "SID");
};

From greenDao website:

Current primary key (PK) restrictions: Currently, entities must have a long or Long property as their primary key. This is recommended practice for Android and SQLite. greenDAO is prepared to handle any primary key scenario in the future, but not everything is implemented completely yet. To work around this issue, you can use a long primary key and use an unique index for the intended “key” properties.

You could try using something like this:

source.addIdProperty();
source.addShortProperty("shortId").unique().getProperty();
source.addStringProperty("name").notNull();
