[bug-classpath] [Bug classpath/22870] New: deserialisation fails on non-classpath object.

[mark at gcc dot gnu dot org]

I tried to deserialize a stream coming from a Sun JVM (which means a good 
stream) and got this exception:



java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: pvr/net/ServiceEvent

   at java.lang.VMClassLoader.loadClass (Native Method)

   at java.lang.Class.forName (Class.java:210)

   at java.io.ObjectInputStream.resolveClass (ObjectInputStream.java:749)

   at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readClassDescriptor (ObjectInputStream.java:530)

   at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readObject (ObjectInputStream.java:228)

   at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readObject (ObjectInputStream.java:275)

   at pvr.net.IPV4Master$IPV4Connection.send (IPV4Master.java:887)

   ...6 more



Some printlines in the ObjectInputStream.java told me that the class.forName 
was called with a 'null' as classloader, which IIRC is not going to find 
classes that are in my classpath.  (right?)

Which makes the bug that the currentLoader() method returned null.



I ran using jamvm 1.2.4 and current classpath CVS.

Whee; this bug seems to be solved as my P2P software now works fine :)
