Hi, I have a big problem with my Java process running on Domino 9.0. I'm using NCSO.jar to create a DIIOP Notes session and create a document in a database. My problem is that I'm unable to use some object in remote access. All Notes objets created in my class resolve to lotus.domino.cso package classes, but when I call Session.createStream or Session.createRichTextStyle, it creates lotus.domino.local classes. The result is a ClasCastException when I try to use the local classes in any notes method.

I get :

java.lang.ClassCastException: lotus.domino.local.RichTextStyle incompatible with lotus.domino.cso.RichTextStyle.

import lotus.domino.Session;

import lotus.domino.RichTextItem;

import lotus.domino.RichTextStyle;

...

The method 'appendStyle' needs a lotus.domino.cso object, but the createRichTextStyle creates a lotus.domino.local object. First, I don't understand why the create functions are creating local objects, second, I don't understand why the method 'appendStyle' needs a cso object, and finally, I don't understand why there's no possible cast between the cso and the local types. I have the same problem with the Session.createStream and MimeEntity.setContentFromText(stream, .., ..). In this case, the stream created by the createStream method is from lotus.domino.local, but setContentFromText needs a lotus.domino.cso.Stream.

After a lot of tries and retries, I can't find a solution for that.

Thanks for your help.
