Hi,

When I start my app I sometimes get this exception:

[java.lang.ClassCastException: org.eclipse.persistence.jaxb.javamodel.reflection.JavaClassImpl cannot be cast to org.eclipse.persistence.jaxb.javamodel.xjc.XJCJavaClassImpl]
  at org.eclipse.persistence.jaxb.JAXBContext$TypeMappingInfoInput.createContextState(JAXBContext.java:1092)

  at javax.xml.bind.JAXBContext.newInstance(JAXBContext.java:641)
  at javax.xml.bind.JAXBContext.newInstance(JAXBContext.java:584)

Note that it is nondeterministic , I think that it may depends on sequence order, how perticular classer are loaded. I am using moxy 2.5.2.

Could you advice me how can I debug what is the cause? I have logged classloaders activities but it gives me no clue. I'm able to reproduce this scenario.

Thanks,
Pawel

I think that I found what happened.
We have two services, first is using JAXBContext.newInstance and second is using DynamicJAXBContextFactory.createContextFromXSD methods in their initilization block.

Sometimes it happens that those two services are initialized in pararell which cause race condition. Looks like internal processing is using some static properties which cause this issue.

Is it anywhere recomended to use JAXBContext and DynamicJAXBContextFactory sequentially? Could anyone confirm if this cue is correct?

/many thanks
Pawel

Hey,

There is no suspicious piece of code in EclipseLink visible at first glance. I will need you to submit a bug at bugs.eclipse.org . Please, also include the tests. If it is non-deterministic, there is a chance that we will not be able to reproduce the problem. But I can assure you that we will try to run it several times. Please, in case it is non-deterministic, give us also some estimated guess on how often does it happen - once per 2 runs, 10 runs, 20 runs?

Best Regards
MarcelV
