[Ming Jin (JIRA)]

     [ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBRULES-1553?page=all ]

Ming Jin resolved JBRULES-1553.
-------------------------------

    Resolution: Done

Replaced classLoader.loadClass with Class.forName(className, true, classLoader) to avoid the ClassNotFoundException for loading array class types.

> Running a test under JDK 1.6, a ClassNotFoundException would be thrown whenever a loadClass(className) was called while the className was the name of an array object, such as "[B" for byte array, etc.  This is definitely new in JDK 1.6.   The corresponding bug could be found at http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do;jsessionid=2a9a78e4393c5e678a2c80f90c1?bug_id=6434149.
> There are two workaround available:
> 1.  setting an environment variable when starting VM: -Dsun.lang.ClassLoader.allowArraySyntax=true.
> 2.  using Class.forName(className, initializationFlag, classLoader) instead of classLoader.loadClass(className).
