Jon Liss created JBAS-9496: ------------------------------ Summary: Deploy fails when using an XStream annotation with "Array component type byte is not handled" RE Key: JBAS-9496 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBAS-9496 Project: Application Server 3 4 5 and 6 Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Components: Deployers Affects Versions: 6.1.0 Environment: JBoss 6.1.0 Final on Windows; Oracle JDK7; XStream 1.4.2 Reporter: Jon Liss Assignee: Ales Justin XStream 1.4.2 provides an annotation called @XStreamConverter - this includes an array of bytes (see http://xstream.codehaus.org/javadoc/com/thoughtworks/xstream/annotations/...)

Any reason all the other primitive types (boolean/char/short/int/long/float/double) are handled but bytes aren't? Can you fix please? XSteam is really useful so to have it breaking this way isn't good... -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
