Hi, (forwarded to mailing list)

You can pass in a classloader as the second arg to ObjectReader (first arg can
be InputStream or Reader):
http://jsx.org/docs/JSX/ObjectReader.html#ObjectReader(java.io.InputStream,%20ja\
va.lang.ClassLoader)
http://jsx.org/docs/JSX/ObjectReader.html#ObjectReader(java.io.Reader,%20java.la\
ng.ClassLoader)

Or, you can use setContextClassLoader on the current thread:

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/lang/Thread.html#setContextClassLoa\
der(java.lang.ClassLoader)
eg:
Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(myCL);

There's some discussion in the mailing list archives:
