service via JNDI)

I'm assuming the manifest files are defined correctly since both Core.jar and
Util.jar are referenced in the WebUI.war manifest file and Util.jar is
referenced in the Core.jar manifest file.
In the backing bean, I have this piece of code:
String jndi = "DVS3EAR/ChangelistServiceBean/local";
| Object service = new InitialContext().lookup(jndi);
| System.out.println(service instanceof ChangelistService) // prints true
| System.out.println(service instanceof Changelist) // prints false
| Changelist service = (Changelist) obj; // fails with
a ClassCastException
|
Why is this?
At some level, isn't this violating a fundamental java principle? Since
ChangelistService is a Changelist, why can't I cast the service object to be a
Changelist, but can cast it to be of type ChangelistService?
Is this some kind of weird (but legal) classloading?
