Spring Controller Rest Call Failure

Question

I was making a rest call to Spring Controller, it failed to got through with BAD request (400 cause , original question Spring Controller 400 (Bad Request))

My Initial rest call parameters were:

categoty: "Game"
itemDescription: "adas"
itemDiscount: 1
itemName: "asdas"
itemPrice: 1
itemQuantity: 1

This failed , but when I changed the parameters as below , it worked:

categoty: "Game"
description: "test1"
discount: 10
name: "Test"
price: 10
quantity: 10

My Persistence POJO class was :

import javax.persistence.*;  

@Entity  
@Table(name= "Item")
public class Item {

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.AUTO)
    @Column(name="id")
    private int id; 
    private String itemName,itemDescription,categoty;   
    private double itemPrice;
    private float itemDiscount;
    private int itemQuantity;


    public int getId() {  
        return id;  
    }  
    public void setId(int id) {  
        this.id = id;  
    }  

    public int getQuantity() {  
        return itemQuantity;  
    }  
    public void setQuantity(int quantity) {  
        this.itemQuantity = quantity;  
    }  

    public float getDiscount() {  
        return itemDiscount;  
    }  
    public void setDiscount(float discount) {  
        this.itemDiscount = discount;  
    }  

    public double getPrice() {  
        return itemPrice;  
    }  
    public void setPrice(double price) {  
        this.itemPrice = price;  
    }  
    public String getName() {  
        return itemName;  
    }  
    public void setName(String iName) {  
        this.itemName = iName;  
    }  
    public String getDescription() {  
        return itemDescription;  
    }  
    public void setDescription(String desc) {  
        this.itemDescription = desc;  
    }  
    public String getcategoty() {  
        return categoty;  
    }  
    public void setcategoty(String cat) {  
        this.categoty = cat;  
    }  


}

Can someone help me understand why second type of parameters worked , whereas first one didn't (Ideally first one was one to one mapping to properties in persistence class)?

it is the same to getters and setters, it removed the prefix name from all variables, Check these examples [example 1](https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/help/generating-getters-and-setters.html) and [example 2](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14143528/eclipse-generate-getter-setter-for-domain-objects-and-classmembers-with-m-suff) — Kh.Taheri, Mar 08 '15 at 22:32

Spring calls the setters of your Entity class. (property quantity --> setQuantity(String) - it doesn't look at the name of your members (e.g. itemQuantity).

But: it is always a good idea to name the setters/getter like your members. You should rename your members to match the getters and setter. That makes it more clear.

Besides that, getcategoty and setcategoty should be renamed to camel-case getCategory and setCategory. BTW: is categoty a typo for category?
