Value extraction for cascaded validation and type argument constraints: No way to unwrap Iterable without index error during error when using Set.

[SimoneGiusso]

    @PostMapping
    fun get(@RequestBody @Valid mySet: Set<@MyValidAnnotation MyType>): Map<MyType, ResponseDTO> =
        ...

will cause:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: No way to unwrap Iterable without index

Everything is fine if using a List instead of a Set as parameter.

P.S. If you want to replicate the error using kotlin, be sure to enable:

tasks.compileKotlin {
    compilerOptions {
        freeCompilerArgs.add("-Xemit-jvm-type-annotations")
    }
}

Hi @SimoneGiusso,

This appears to be a duplicate of:

• Fix adaptation of violations on Set method parameter #33150

That was fixed in Spring Framework 6.1.11.

In light of that, I am closing this issue.

Please try out 6.1.11. If that does not address the issue you're encountering, please post back here, and we can consider reopening this issue.

Cheers,

Sam
