java.util.Locale does not have a no-arg default constructor

[prasad.deshpande]

Hi,

Firstly, my issue is related with jboss & CXF but i'm not using inbuild cxf support in jboss. I have an ear in which I've deployed a webservice as war file using CXF's spring deployment.

Packaging works fine on jboss 5.1.0.GA released version. I've then checked-out jboss 5.1.0 from SVN & using it. But the same war doesn't deploy with this checked-out version. It gives me error.

Caused by: com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.IllegalAnnotationsException: 1 counts of IllegalAnnotationExceptions java.util.Locale does not have a no-arg default constructor.

    this problem is related to the following location:

Do you think it could be because of classloading issue or any or jar file has changed/updated in SVN after 5.1.0.GA is released? I suspect XmlSchema.jar. Also the version I'm using of CXF is 2.2.6 if that helps.

Found the cause of above problem. It was asm.jar in <Jboss_home>/common/lib directory. I package asm.jar with my application but because of this jar present in above directory, it was getting loaded first causing problem.
