ClassCast Exception when returning an object from the Digester.parse method

[du...@bankone.com]

Hello, when I use the digester I am having an issue when I try to get the
return object from the digester.parse method. I know what kind of object it
is returning, but when I try to cast it as that object it throws a
ClassCast Exception.  What is strange is that when I cast it as an object,
it works fine and when I get the className on the object it is the object
type that I am expecting. But again when I try to cast that to the object
type that I know it is, it throws the ClassCast Exception. This is how I am
putting the class onto the digester stack.

digester.addObjectCreate("site-config",
"techone.groups.appcontainer.conf.SiteConfig", "className");

Any help would be greatly appreciated - dk

this smells like a classloader problem.

you might need to take a look at digester.setContextClassloader and 
digester.setClassloader methods.
