Error description
When using the MQ JMS provider in client-then-bindings mode, a ClassCastException can be thrown when calling createContext() methods.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server V9.0 on z/OS using the JMS 2.0 API * * and the MQ JMS messaging provider. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When using client-then-bindings * * transport mode, a ClassCastException * * can be thrown when calling * * createContext()methods. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** If a bindings connection is possible then a ClassCastException can be thrown on z/OS. This is because the initial underlying MQ connection process succeeds, but this then drives code that creates a JMS Connection instead of a JMSContext object, which in turn causes the ClassCastException when the JMSContextHandle is created to hold it.
Problem conclusion
The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 9.0.0.10. Please refer to the Recommended Updates page for delivery information: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=180&uid=swg27004980
