Description Tomas Hoger 2012-10-11 19:14:09 UTC 
java.util.ServiceLoader was creating an instance of a class while doing provide lookup, even when class was not of an expected subtype, resulting in ClassCastException exception to be thrown.  The fix changes the ServiceLoader to check class type before creating instance.
Comment 6 Tomas Hoger 2012-10-17 09:27:29 UTC 
Fixed now in Oracle JDK 7u9 and 6u37.
