Description Matt MacIvor 2011-11-01 13:09:30 EDT

If we create a JAXBContext
containing both byte[] and DataHandler classes, we get an unmarshal error
trying to unmarshal a DOM node containing base64Binary data as a byte[].  If
we remove DataHandler.class from the JAXBContext, it works fine. 

Exception [EclipseLink-3001] (Eclipse Persistence Services -
2.3.1.v20111019-r10246):
org.eclipse.persistence.exceptions.ConversionException
Exception Description: The object [4xuxMDM=], of class [class

WORKAROUND:
-----------

TESTCASE DETAILS (REQUIRED):
----------------------------
Note the actual failing code in JRF creates the JAXBContext using the other
API and properly configured service providers, but with the same issue:

jaxbContext = (org.eclipse.persistence.jaxb.JAXBContext)
            JAXBContextFactory.createContext(schemaContentClasses,
properties);
