regression in CollectionProxy?

[Michael Mogley <mm...@adelphia.net>]

Hi all,

I recently updated my two-month old OJB with the latest version (as of this
morning).  In  my web-app, I have a section of code that retrieves a
CollectionProxy of photos from an album.  When this collection is copied to
an ArrayList, I get a stack.  This code was working before the update.

I've looked at the source and it seems the CollectionProxy.toArray
materializes the real subjects.  If so, why?

Any help greatly appreciated.

Michael
