implicit typemapper cannot be defined in a package object (runtime error) about playframework HOT 4 CLOSED

Which version of play are you using? Play used to ship with its own package object models. Duplicate package objects does cause issues

When defined in the package object, it compiles, but fails at runtime (when generating the DDL) with a method not found error.

This was initially created in play-slick (playframework/play-slick#32) but it seems more a play issue than a problem with play-slick.

I'm using the latest (2.1). Is it allowed to define a package object
"models" ? Or what is the recommended way to do this ?

As Nilanjan said, Play used to ship its own models package object, this has been fixed, but that was since the 2.1 release. For now, you'll have to create your package object in another class. In Play 2.2 you will be allowed to define a package object called models.

Thanks for the super quick answer ! I confirm this works in another package object for play 2.1
