Hi all,

First of all, my problem is probably similar to the following issue: http://groups.google.com/group/powermock/browse_thread/thread/88079512f2dfcbd1/59b5d831e3e7f9b8?pli=1 basically, I have a hibernate configuration that gets loaded in my test.
I'm getting the following error:

java.lang.ClassCastException: com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.parsers.SAXParser cannot be cast to org.xml.sax.XMLReader

I've tried the recommendation suggested in the issue I mentioned above, without any luck:

@RunWith(PowerMockRunner.class)
@PrepareForTest({MyServiceImpl.class})
@PowerMockIgnore( { "com.sun.org.apache.xerces.", "org.dom4j.", "org.xml.sax.*" })
public class MyTest extends InMemoryLookupTests{

private MyServiceImpl service;
...

@Before
public void setup() throws Exception {
    MockitoAnnotations.initMocks(this);
    service = new MyServiceImpl();
    ....
}

.....

}

Could someone please share some light?

Thanks in advance!

Regards,

Alex.
