Hello,

I'm new to XMLEncoder and trying to grasp it's basics.

This works fine:

###############################################################
import java.beans.*;
import java.io.*;

public class TestIntegrated
{
    private int value;

    public TestIntegrated(){
        value = 0;
    }
   
    public int getValue(){ return value; }
    public void setValue(int value){ this.value = value; }

    public static void main(String[] args)
        throws FileNotFoundException{
       TestIntegrated t = new TestIntegrated();
   
       t.setValue(5);

       XMLEncoder e = new XMLEncoder(
            new BufferedOutputStream(
            new FileOutputStream("Test.xml"))
        );

        e.writeObject(t);
        e.close();
    }
}
###############################################################

If I split this in two Classes, it won't work anymore.
The error message is:

java.lang.IllegalAccessException: Class sun.reflect.misc.Trampoline
can not access a member of class Test with modifiers "public"
Continuing ...
java.lang.Exception: XMLEncoder:
discarding statement XMLEncoder.writeObject(Test);
Continuing ...

code:

###############################################################
import java.io.*;

class Test implements Serializable{
    private int value;

    public Test(){
        value = 0;
    }
   
    public int getValue(){ return value; }
    public void setValue(int value){ this.value = value; }
}
###############################################################
import java.beans.*;
import java.io.*;

public class TestMain
{
    public static void main(String[] args) throws FileNotFoundException{
       Test t = new Test();
   
       t.setValue(5);

       XMLEncoder e = new XMLEncoder(
            new BufferedOutputStream(
            new FileOutputStream("Test.xml"))
        );

        e.writeObject(t);
        e.close();
    }
}

Any Ideas why this won't work? I'm using java version 1.5.0_09.

Thanks, Manuel Kasten
