Description Rick Barkhouse 2011-11-17 11:06:35 EST

If a user maps a custom subclass of JAXBElement<byte[]>, such as:

public class MyType {
   @XmlElementRef(name = "request",
                  namespace = "ns",
                  type = MyType.Request.class)
   protected MyType.Request request;
   ...
}

public class Request extends JAXBElement<byte[]> {
   public TestRequest(byte[] value) {
      super(new QName("ns", "request"), byte[].class, MyType.class, value);
   }
   ...
}

context creation will fail with:

Exception Description: Class [byte[]] not found.
	at org.eclipse.persistence.exceptions.JAXBException.classNotFoundException(JAXBException.java:657)
	at org.eclipse.persistence.jaxb.javamodel.reflection.JavaModelImpl.getClass(JavaModelImpl.java:82)
	at org.eclipse.persistence.jaxb.javamodel.Helper.getJavaClass(Helper.java:191)
	at org.eclipse.persistence.jaxb.compiler.MappingsGenerator.generateDescriptorForJAXBElementSubclass(MappingsGenerator.java:351)

The TypeInfo holds "byte[]" in 'factoryMethodParamTypes', but this would need to be converted to '[B' in order to do the Class.forName() in JavaModelImpl.

See org.eclipse.persistence.testing.jaxb.xmlelementref.ComplexType for an easy to modify test case.
