Hi all,
I am recieving the following exception when attempting to set my mapping file:
org.exolab.castor.mapping.MappingException: Nested error: org.exolab.castor.mapping.MappingException: Could not find the class int
This error only occurs when running as a deployed packagage inside jboss 3.2.3. It works fine when I run a stand alone test outside the applications server.
I am creating the mapping object as follows:
Mapping ordersMapping = new Mapping(this.getClass().getClassLoader());
URL url = "">
ordersMapping.loadMapping(url);
I assume this is a classloader problem but am thrown by the fact that it is a primitive it's having problems with.
The classes that the mapping file is trying to load is packaged in a seperate jar inside the jar where the above code is being executed which is packaged in an ear file. So it's a jar inside a jar inside an ear. All the other code can see these classes I'm not sure why the castor mapper is having so much trouble.
I have copied a portion of the mapping file below (the complete file exceeds the max allowable size by the mailing list). Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Rob
