13. Casting caught Exception to Real Type    coderanch.com

Heh - that's pretty horrid. Though I would point out for Christopher's benefit that if you're trying to extract some sort of String description of an exception, toString() is often a better choice than getMessage() - at least for a "general" catch block that catches something like all Exceptions or all RuntimeExceptions. The toString() method usually gives you the exception class ...

It's not really that you can't downcast - it's that you can't turn an object into something it's not by downcasting. That will give you runtime problems. Here's an example:- class CastTest { public static void main (String args[]) { Object myArray[] = new Object[2]; myArray[0] = new Object(); myArray[1] = new String ("Hi"); System.out.println("Attempting first cast"); String myString = (String) ...

29. down cast only throw exception    coderanch.com

No, you misunderstood something. I advice you to reread the subject. Just think about it logically: Class B extends A. It means that B has everything which A has plus it can have some other methods and fields. So whenever you need an A instance you can use a B instance since it contains everything what is needed for the A ...

Looks like a classloader issue. The two classes may have the same fully-qualified name, but if they're loaded by different classloaders, they're completely different classes as far as the runtime is concerned. Where is this code running? You say you're doing something in the main method, right? What's kicking off your Spring bean factory?

Okay...well, why are you putting all those different things in one Vector? How will you differentiate among which is which? Seems (from a preliminary, outside perspective) like it would be better to have a separate data structure for each data type, or a single encapsulating Object to contain the String/Integer/Boolean data, then make a Vector of that Object. But I digress... ...

First investigate. In stead of doing the cast directly, catch the return value in a variable of type Object (assuming it is Object) and investigate what type that object actually is through debugging, System.out, whatever. With that information in hand it might be easier to reason where you are making a mistake and what type of mistake you are making.
