I don't see how it could ever work, unless some version of java.sql.Timestamp has a default ctor. The following code in BeanSerializer creates the bean:
private Object instantiateBean(Class javaType) throws IllegalArgumentException { try { return javaType.newInstance(); } catch (Throwable t) { throw new IllegalArgumentException("Unable to instantiate '" + StringUtils.getClassName(javaType) + "': " + t.getMessage()); } } The newInstance is only going to work if the class has a default ctor (or in Sun's terminology, a "nullary constructor").
