How to convert json to Object in mule 4

Question

My json looks like this :

{ "key1" : "aa", "key2" : "bb" }

and java class looks like this :

public class Example {

@NotBlank
@Size(min = 3, max = 5)
private String key1;

@Pattern(regexp=".+@.+\\.[a-z]+") // email
private String key2;

}

I used transform connector to convert my payload to json :

%dw 2.0
output application/java
---
payload as Object {class: "Entities/Example"}

I get this error :

"Unable to find class 'Entities/Example'

4| payload as Object {class: "Entities/Example"}
   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Trace:

My package structure looks like this :

The problem is that your script is using a slash to separate the package from the class. It should use a period ('.') instead, as standard in Java. I would also recommend to use the standard Java convention for the packages and include organization or company.

Example:

payload as Object {class: "com.mycompany.projecta.Example"}
