JavaLoader returning a Generic Class instead or correct object

[Randy Merrill]

I was trying to use the javaloader with the mongodb jar and seem to be only able to get back a java.lang.Class object back.

Here is the code that I was running with the mongo jar in the same directory:

<cfscript>

javaloader = createObject('component','javaloader.JavaLoader').init([ expandPath('./mongo-2.4.jar') ]);

test = javaloader.create('com.mongodb.BasicDBObject').init();

writeDump(getmetadata(test));

</cfscript>

It works for other classes in the jar, but doesn't seem to work for the BasicDBObject class.

Any suggestions?

I think that is just how getMetaData shows the object. If you dump the class name, it should be correct: com.mongodb.BasicDBObject ie   WriteDump(test.getClass().name); -Leigh --- On Mon, 1/10/11, Randy Merrill <zora...@gmail.com> wrote:

I think Leigh is correct.

What happens if you just do:

writeDump(test);

?

You are correct. If I run the writeDump(test.getClass().name); I get the correct response.

Thanks!
