Retrieving a map resource of a class repository where the key of the map is of type Long, it fails due to a RepositoryNotFoundException that is thrown in the method objectToMapKey. The following piece of code is always throwing the exception looking for a repository for the class java.lang.Long:

java
protected RepositoryMetadata repositoryMetadataFor(Class<?> domainType) {
  for(RepositoryExporter exporter : repositoryExporters) {
    RepositoryMetadata repoMeta = exporter.repositoryMetadataFor(domainType);
    if(null != repoMeta) {
      return repoMeta;
    }
  }
  throw new RepositoryNotFoundException("No repository found for type " + domainType.getName());
}

This method is called in the objectToMapKey method of RestController:

java
if(ClassUtils.isAssignable(obj.getClass(), String.class)) {
     key = (String)obj;
   } else if(null != (repoMeta = repositoryMetadataFor(obj.getClass()))) {
     AttributeMetadata attrMeta = repoMeta.entityMetadata().idAttribute();
     String id = attrMeta.get(obj).toString();
     key = "@" + buildUri(config.getBaseUri(), repoMeta.name(), id);
   } else {
     key = conversionService.convert(obj, String.class);
   }

The conversionService is never executed
