[Jython-bugs] [issue1446] 1st arg can't be coerced to java.lang.CharSequence[] even when using workaround

[Dan S. <re...@bu...>]

New submission from Dan Salagean <dan...@ya...>:

Environment:
Windows XP SP3, JRE 1.6.0_16, jython 2.5.0

If the java method receives a java.lang.CharSequence parameter, it is 
not coerced by the Jython. 
As a workaround you could use java.lang.String, but it does not work. 
See the example below, using WebDriver 
(http://code.google.com/p/webdriver/).

D:\webDriver>set CLASSPATH=d:\webDriver\json-
20080701.jar;d:\webDriver\junit-3.8.1.jar;d:\webDriver\webdriver-all.jar

D:\webDriver>jython
