I have a situation that is driving me crazy, does anyone have ideas?

I have an abstract class - "abstractClass"

From it I specify another concrete class - "concreteClass"

I made a ClassLoader that goes out and dynamically loads in "concreteClass"
from a directory and creates an object of it using instanceOf();
"concreteObject", no problem so far.

When I inspect "concreteObject" in the debugger, all data appears to be in
order. When I try to cast "concreteObject" to it's parent type,
"abstractClass", I get a Class Cast Exception.

Anyone have any ideas? Please feel free to EMAIL me as well...
