org.bson.codecs.configuration.CodecConfigurationException: Can't find a codec for class [Ljava.lang.String;

I want to run the following command to create a user with MongoDB Java Driver,

    client = new MongoClient(mongoClientURI);
    MongoDatabase database = client.getDatabase("db_1");

    Document createUserCommand = new Document();
    createUserCommand.put("createUser", "abc");
    createUserCommand.put("pwd", "abc");
    createUserCommand.put("roles", new String[]{"userAdmin", "read", "readWrite", "dbAdmin", "dbOwner"});         database.runCommand(createUserCommand);

But following exception occurred:

Exception in thread "main" org.bson.codecs.configuration.CodecConfigurationException: Can't find a codec for class [Ljava.lang.String;.

Looks the roles field which is an array leads to this problem, can some take a look at this problem? Thanks

Solution 
  • createUserCommand.put("roles", new String[]{"userAdmin", "read", "readWrite", "dbAdmin", "dbOwner"});
 database.runCommand(createUserCommand);

    should be 

    List<String> roles = new ArrayList<String>(); 
roles.add("userAdmin); ... createUserCommand.put("roles", roles); database.runCommand(createUserCommand);

    Looks like it support List, not Array, which is really ugl
