UserController In this the getUsers method doesn't work and caused error

@RestController
@RequestMapping("user")
public class UserController {

    private final Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(UserController.class);

    @Autowired

    @Autowired
    private RoleService roleService;

    @PostMapping("/add")
    public MessageDto addUser(@RequestBody UserDto userDto)
    {
        log.info("Post call have been received at user/add with DTO " + userDto);
                                             //Set<UserRoleDomain>
        UserDomain userDomain = userService.mapUserDtoToDomain(userDto);
        return userService.add(userDomain, roleService.add(userDomain));
    }

    @GetMapping("/get/{userName}")
    public UserDto getUsers(@PathVariable("userName") String userName)

Answer 1

A Stack Overflow error happens when your code has called too many methods without returning and there are too many methods in the stack, causing it to overflow. This commonly happens when you have an infinite loop where a method calls itself repeatedly.

There is a loop happening in your hashCode method in com.examportal.examportalapi.domain.UserRoleDomain which calls com.examportal.examportalapi.domain.RoleDomain.hashCode.

You have the @Data lombok annotation in these two classes. Replace the @Data annotation with just the features you need in the classes. @Data generates hashCode methods that cause your problem. See the documentation: https://projectlombok.org/features/Data

Answer 2

Changed @Data annotation with the following Lombok annotations and it worked for me

@Setter

@Getter

@AllArgsConstructor

@NoArgsConstructor

@ToString

@Entity
