Thanks for the help. The 3rd party classes, i must use, seem to act up in 1.1.6 and greater. For instance, when I call a certain method using the 1.1.6 jdk, the function throws a NullPointerException during the execution, but when it is run in a 1.1.5 jdk this does not seem to occur. I suppose the exception handling was improved in 1.1.6 and the sloppy coding has caught up with them. The library is a piece of "Middleware" that allows access to a enterprise Web Based EDMS. The actual function that is called in this environment runs correctly and returns the appropriate information to the Middleware method. The error occurs in a function called .unMarshal(). I suspect that it is in some sort of socket clean up that is occuring, since communication with the server is performed via sockets.
