Hi All, I'm receiving strange ClassCastExceptions due to class loader issues in JBoss 4.0.2, I try to turn off parent delegation. According to the post here http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=ClassLoadingConfiguration "Use the following constructs to enabled scoped class loading with the deployment classes overriding the server classes." I have the following jboss-app.xml | <jboss-app> | <loader-repository> | statements.purdueefcu.com:loader=statments-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT | <loader-repository-config> | java2ParentDelegation=false | </loader-repository-config> | </loader-repository> | </jboss-app> | However, I still receive these errors. Whenever I run our POJO code in our integration tests, everything works perfectly. Once I package it up into an ear and deploy in JBoss, I start to see these issues. Specifically it seems to be a hibernate issue with annotations. I'm including the annotations version 3.3.0 ga, and hibernate version 3.2.4.sp1. It seems that either I'm missing a library in the include, or JBoss is not loading my classes first. Is my jboss-app.xml correct?
