ClassCastException when casting to the same class

Question

I have 2 different Java projects, one has 2 classes: dynamicbeans.DynamicBean2 and dynamic.Validator.

On the other project, I load both of

Answer 1

I had the same issue while using several JBoss instances on different machines. To bad I didn't stumble across this post earlier.
There were artifacts deployed on different machines, two of them declared class loaders with identical name.I changed one of the classloader names and everything worked fine => Beware of Copy&Paste!

Why doesn't the ClassCastException thrown mention the involved class loaders? - I think that would be very useful information.
Does anyone know if there will be anything like this available in the future? Needing to check the class loaders of 20-30 Artifacts is not that pleasant. Or is there something I missed in the exception text?

EDIT: I edited the META-INF/jboss-app.xml file and changed the name of the loader, the idea is to have a unique name. At work we use the artifact id(unique) combined with the version inserted by maven({$version}) during the build.
Using dynamic fields is only optional but helps if you want to deploy different versions of the same application.

    
   com.example:archive=unique-archive-name-{$version}
