You are reporting this to the wrong language group. The fact that Java:
A) has a public constructor for Boolean (a type with only 2 possible instances) B) whose doc string says "Note: It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor." and then C) goes on to use it in some library functions (reflection, serialization) are all bugs in *Java*. When they fix them, your problem will go away. Please submit your bug reports to Oracle, and patches to Open JDK. Good luck :) Rich On Apr 7, 2012, at 11:41 AM, Steven Obua wrote: > Well, I am an emotional programmer.
