| Use of JDK 1.6 with TCK: ClassLoader.loadClass cannot load arrays in JDK 1.6
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JDO-488
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-488
Project: JDO
Issue Type: Bug
Components: tck2
Affects Versions: JDO 2 final
Environment: Use of JDK 1.6 when running TCK.
Reporter: David Ezzio
In JDK 1.5 and prior versions of Java 2, the name returned by Class.getName() could be used with ClassLoader.loadClass to load array types. This behavior was considered a bug that has been fixed in JDK 1.6. As a result, calls using encoded array names s
uch as "L[java.lang.Object;" now fail with a ClassNotFoundException.
See Sun's Java CR 6446627 (http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/vie...?bug_id=6446627) et alia.
The recommended practice (and the only available option in JDK 1.6) is to use Class.forName(name, verify, classloader) to load a class with a specific class loader within the application.
