Assuking that the SMNP simply uses Castor for xml data binding (marshalling and unmarshalling), my (wild) guess would be that upgrading the Castor JAR to 1.0.5 (or 1.1) would not cause an harm.
Werner PS Additionally, you could consult with the SNMP adaptor provider and ask them to upgrade. Having said that, you should be able to avoid problems like this by making sure that you understand and use JBoss' classloader schemas. ________________________________ Von: Praveen Jani [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Donnerstag, 22.

I recently upgraded from Castor 0.9.x to Castor 1.0.5. We are using JBoss 3.2 right now that comes bundled with SNMP adapter. Now this adapter is using OLD (0.9.x) castor and therefore spoiling the show at runtime. Does anyone of you experienced this issue and found a way around it? I replaced the castor.jar in SNMP adapter with new castor-1.0.5.jar and it seems to be deploying it successfully. But since we dont use SNMP as of yet, I am not sure if replacing this JAR would cause any issues if we decide to use SNMP in future. I would appreciate your help and suggestions. Thanks, -Praveen
