Here is the patch (file is : castor-X.Y.Z/src/main/java/org/exolab/castor/xml/UnmarshalHandler.java)
(of course you will need to recompile castor ... : 'ant clean' followed by 'ant jar' will do the job)
==============================================================
/**
* Loads and returns the class with the given class name using the

* @param className the name of the class to load
* @param loader the ClassLoader to use, this may be null.
* *********************************************************************
* PATCH : C.Assemat - 11/05/2007 due to the bug of loadClass in JDK 1.6

private Class loadClass(String className, ClassLoader loader)
throws ClassNotFoundException
{
// -- patch only if jdk 1.6 AND 'array class'
if ( className.startsWith("[") )
return Class.forName(className);
//-- use passed in loader
else if ( loader != null )
return loader.loadClass(className);
//-- use internal loader
else if (_loader != null)
return _loader.loadClass(className);
//-- no loader available use Class.forName
return Class.forName(className);
} //-- loadClass

Cheers,

PS: if someone here is more aware of the Castor's codebase and procedures, he could enter
the bug in some bug's repository and register the patch.

Personally, I would be very surprised to find Java-specific notations in an xsi:type attribute ….. what surprises me is that it seems to work.

But first, could you tell me if the 'xsi:type="java:[I"' notation found in the xml is (seems) correct ? Thanks, Chris Werner Guttmann wrote: That's truly an odd one .. ;-). A few random questions, just to establish a context for me. Are you using a mapping file ? If not, is this discussion based upon Java classes that have been generated from an XML schema ? Or are you using Castor XML without a mapping file, relying on default introspection ?

While trying to 'unmarshal' an xml previously marshalled object, it fails : unable to instantiate [I; java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: [I ... Part of the xml concerned looks like : <targetmap internalkey="33"> <range xsi:type="java:[I"> <integer>12345</integer> <integer>34567</integer> </range> <range ...> ... </range> ... </targetmap> I'm still using 'castor-1.0.2' version and i'm planning to move to 'castor-1.1.1' but anyhow i would like to understand why this problem arises.
