UUID not working with JOOQ and PostgreSQL

Question

Whenever I try to set or retrieve a field of UUID type, I get the following error from JOOQ: "Not supported by dialect : Type class java.util.UUID is not supported in dialect null"

Everything else works great and as far as I can tell the dialect is properly set to Postgres. Any idea what's going on?

Answer 1

You're using jOOQ 2.6.4. java.util.UUID types are only supported from jOOQ 3.0 onwards:

• https://github.com/jOOQ/jOOQ/issues/1624
• http://www.jooq.org/notes#3.0.0

But while you're at it, you might want to upgrade to the very latest version (which is 3.4.1, at the time I have provided this answer)
