Ok I am going to try and keep the code base and build against rev's that my framework providers are currently released and buolding against.
thats why I asked this question... because my wife said... 'why dont you fix it yourself'... and seeing I ate and breathed HibernateDescriptorDecorator.JAVA morning noon and night for many years... i actually patched it in my dreams and souped it up way beyond spec. So i would like to try and fix it myself and beat the committers to the punch. How would you approach this stack trace... ? build issue? I am building against 5.3.7 tapestry (and no offense to the tap folks, I feel tapestry is beyond ripe now). Any help is appreciated. Thanks
