cassandra-driver-mapping: InvalidTypeException: Invalid 32-bits float value, expecting 4 bytes but got 6
<p>As I got issues with <code>spring-data-cassandra</code> with <code>docker</code> as describer <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41108050/unable-to-connect-to-cassandra-from-docker-container-using-spring-data-cassandra?noredirect=1#comment69422977_41108050">here</a> I switched to use <code>com.datastax.cassandra</code> library for cassandra operations but I am getting issues while mapping the resulted object using <code>entity mapper</code> as per this <a href="http://docs.datastax.com/en/developer/java-driver/2.1/manual/object_mapper/using/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">link</a></p>

<p>Here is my code ...</p>

<pre><code>public String getUser(String userName) {
    Mapper&lt;User&gt; mapper = manager.mapper(User.class);
    User result = mapper.get(userName);  // no issue getting User
    String accountNum = result.getAccountId();
    return accountNum ;
}

public Account getAccount(String accountNum){
    Mapper&lt;Account&gt; mapper = manager.mapper(Account.class);
    Account account = mapper.get(accountNum); // getting error here
    return account;
}
</code></pre>

<p>Account.java </p>

<pre><code>@Table(name = "account")
public class Account {
    @PartitionKey
    private String accountNum;
    private String accountsubtype;
    private float currentbalance;
    private String customertype;
    private String firstname;
    private boolean isactive;
    private String payments;
    private String status;
    ....
    //Getters &amp; Setters 
}
</code></pre>
