[aperi-dev] ClassCastException

[Rodica Ciurea <rodica_ciurea@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I noted that sometimes when getting
the attributes from the Device Server a ClassCastException appears.

This seems to have generated the 170151
bug (No Managed-disks showed up in Create Virtual
Disks).

I think it is safer to cast to a Number
when using the GUIEntityUtil.getNumberValuemethod:

        short
nativeStatus = GUIEntityUtil.getNumberValue((ShortNumber)
attr
         
      .get(TResStorageExtentTable.NATIVE_STATUS)).shortValue();

because we can't be sure if the HashMap
contains a short or an integer.

The value can be stored into a short
because the DB type for NATIVE_STATUS is smallint, but in some places it
was recorded in the HashMap as an integer.
