Hi Roman, the PDs have to be registered to make out-of-the-box encoders (new XMLEncoder(...)) be able to process instances of those classes. However: If you want to split Swing out of the class library there is no point in trying to register a PD for them since the class isnt there anyway.
I prepare a patch that will resolve this issue by using Class.forName() which is allowed to fail for such classes. Btw: Currently the encoder relies on the StAX implementation. If someone decides to rip that out one has to provide an alternative gnu.java.beans.encoder.Writer implementation. cya Robert Roman Kennke wrote: > Hi Robert, > > Is it really necessary to directly reference all those classes in > java.beans.Encoder.setupDefaultPersistenceDelegates()?
