TableNameOverride Throwing Error

Expected Behavior

Modifying configuration to use dynamoDBMapperConfig bean with a tableNameOverride should simply change the DynamoDB table name that we are accessing

Actual Behavior

Modifying configuration causes Circular view path [error]

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

1. Followed instructions here to modify a project that successfully does CRUD operations on a DynamoDB Table (Both local and AWS)
2. Ran application and hit endpoint
3. Receive the following error:

Snapshot solved issue and had no breaking changes for my other operations.

One note: I took a look at option ‘a’ and I was already using DynamoDBMapperConfig.Builder() instead of DynamoDBMapperConfig.builder(). So something else you changed in the snapshot was the solution.

[derjust]

@adenix I think right now you have two options:

a) I updated the wiki article. If you follow the changed approach on how to create the DynamoDBMapperConfig via DynamoDBMapperConfig.Builder builder = new DynamoDBMapperConfig.Builder(); you might be golden already

b) OR if you feel lucky you may want to try 5.0.3-SNAPSHOT from the OSSRH snapshot repository which should work with & without the changes on the DynamoDBMapperConfig.Builder - bare in mind this is untested snapshot code!
