Hello world,

First of all, sorry if this topic has already been discussed. I've not found the discussion yet.

I'm trying to send a specialized class (implementing interfaces and/or extending class) over socket transport through jboss remoting with jboss serialization.
I'm disapointed to see jboss remoting and/or serialization send my objects over the transport layer as their specialized form (aka lastest leaf in inheritance tree) and ignore their defintion or forced casting as super class and/or interface.

You understand it causes classloader exception if this specialized class is not defined on both side.

So i had a look on remote classloading (http://docs.jboss.org/jbossremoting/docs/guide/2.5/html/ch09.html) but, as far i understand only the server side can copy classes that client encounters. Right?
Precisely i need the contrary : i'd like the client to export visibility on its classes ... and i see nothing in the doc.

For the moment my server is in a sar in a AS context and my client is a junit code but the target is also full AS.

How should i do?

For information, i'm using jboss 5.1.0.GA and i'd like not to upgrade its integrated libs jboss-remoting-2_5_1 and jboss-serialization-1.0.3.GA.

Any advice/hint is welcome,

Thx.
