Galder Zamarreno commented on JBCACHE-992:
------------------------------------------

This shouldn't affect the output of this JIRA, but if we prove that JBC builds and runs on JDK 6, bear in mind this:

As far as AS is concerned, Java 6 is not currently supported, at least until the following issue has been resolved 
or the code is changed (I think this might happen in AS 5.0):

    An issue where ClassLoader.loadClass(String) is not resolving arrays is
    showing up as users start to use jdk6:
    http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6434149

    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: [Ljava.lang.String;
    at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:200)
    at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)
    at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:188)
    at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:306)
    at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:276)
    at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:251)
    at test.main(test.java:7)

    The workaround is to use the Class.forName(String, boolean, ClassLoader)
    method.
