The error happens when I create a jar from the source in Eclipse and  
drop it in lib, replacing the current jar file.

I can take the same class files and put them in the classes directory  
without errors. Weird.

GF 6.1. I know, it's old. :) Most of the new work is in Grails.

I used to go to Aberdeen quite often to visit friends. I miss it.

Keepin' it real since 1972
