Good article. Note that this has been discussed and described on the Spring discussion forums: http://opensource.atlassian.com/confluence/spring/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=2669

I switched to JRockit to avoid this issue when developing with TC 5.0.x. Glad to hear it is fixed in TC 6.

I forgot to mention. Yes, I did try flushing introspector caches by IntrospectorCleaupListener (http://www.springframework.org/docs/api/org/springframework/web/util/IntrospectorCleanupListener.html) but, it was still failing.

That’s probably no bug in Tomcat, but in your code and/or libraries you use (not flushing instrospector caches or so)

Hi,
The topic was really nice and informative. I was using TomCAT 5.0.28 now I suppose time has come to move to 6.0.
