Description from-classpath 2005-02-13 13:03:27 UTC 
I tried to deserialize a stream coming from a Sun JVM (which means a good stream) and got this exception:

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: pvr/net/ServiceEvent
   at java.lang.VMClassLoader.loadClass (Native Method)
   at java.lang.Class.forName (Class.java:210)
   at java.io.ObjectInputStream.resolveClass (ObjectInputStream.java:749)
   at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readClassDescriptor (ObjectInputStream.java:530)
   at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readObject (ObjectInputStream.java:228)
   at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readObject (ObjectInputStream.java:275)
   at pvr.net.IPV4Master$IPV4Connection.send (IPV4Master.java:887)
   ...6 more

Some printlines in the ObjectInputStream.java told me that the class.forName was called with a 'null' as classloader, which IIRC is not going to find classes that are in my classpath.  (right?)
Which makes the bug that the currentLoader() method returned null.

I ran using jamvm 1.2.4 and current classpath CVS.

Whee; this bug seems to be solved as my P2P software now works fine :)
Please close bug.
