Hej, thanks for the detailed report.
Are you able to share the relevant entities that cause this? Thank you in advance.

Of course, going through the SDN code I can see you check for those possibleCircles, that's why in my code the issue applies only to a subset of entities. I can share one of the simpler ones. Please see the screenshots attached. This entity is part of a linked list cause it has a relationship to previous of the same type. My logic prevents pointing at the very same object (node), it's just a linked list of objects of the same type so we keep a relationship to the previous one.

Feels like it's ok to have an entity with possibleCircles. The reason is why only in this case we compare stringified ids with Long params for methods like findAll, findById and so on.

In that case above, with repository defined as here (see screenshot), querying userChangesRepository.findAll() gives out an empty result even though there are many nodes of a kind in the DB. No Exceptions are thrown.

Can I see your Entity definition, pls?

Sure.

I may be having a redundant getNodeId method here, I know. That should not matter though, many Entities extending Entity work fine, except those that have relationships which end up being possibleCircles

I cannot reproduce this, see linked PR.

Make sure you configure the Cypher-DSL dialect, pls

https://docs.spring.io/spring-data/neo4j/reference/getting-started.html#configure-cypher-dsl-dialect

I tried both the main branch and the current 7.1.x branch.

Thank you for your effort, let me see if I can provide simpliest (not)working runnable example. Let's leave this ticket hanging for a moment more please.

Ofc, feel free to take my branch as a working base.

Hey, apparently what solved my issue was downgrading cypherdsl to 2023.2.0 That's what is used in your branch Michael. There's no toString methods performed on entity nodeIds there. I think we can close this issue. Still I'll need to keep my eyes out next time when I need to step versions and cypherdsl. Maybe worth looking at from your side at one point ?

Regards

Hey, thanks for your detailed feedback so far.
Now I would like to keep this open for further investigation (I'm just juggling a bit with time atm).

Thank!!

No worries, feel free to contact me for more details if needed. Cheers.

The issue is now unrelated to Spring Data Neo4j and points towards an rather old version of the CypherDSL.
Closing this issue.
