> I'm getting an Aegis exception (stacktrace below) when trying to export a 
> service. It looks similar to CXF-3613, but that is closed as fixed in 2.7.1. 
> I also found mention of it in 
> http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/cxf-dev/201301.mbox/%3c399bf167-4cdd-4e5c-b9ce-7dbdfc012...@apache.org%3E
>  from a few months ago but nothing further.
> I tried debugging a bit, and it seems to fail when the service interface has 
> a method declaring a throws clause with a custom exception which is a trivial 
> Exception subclass (with no fields, just standard constructors). Somewhere 
> down the line of dependencies it reaches a java.lang.Class, which has a field 
> of type T[] named enumConstants, it tries to get the base type for component 
> type "T", which returns null, which causes the exception.
> Update: I think I found a temporary workaround: I changed the custom 
> exception to extend RuntimeException instead of Exception, and changed the 
> interface to declare throwing RuntimeException instead of the custom 
> exception, and now I no longer see this exception occurring. The reason for 
> using RuntimeException (rather than Exception) is so that the rest of the 
> code does not require any modification - only the exception class and the 
> interface are changed, and only those will need to be reverted when a proper 
> fix is released.
> However, it's still bad that code needs to be changed in order for DOSGi to 
> work (one of its main selling points is transparency to OSGi services), plus 
> the code loses compile-time exception checking for users of the 
> interface/service.
