my e-mail is Thompsonluque @ hotmail.com
I got a java program the implements java.io.Serializable
this program is my shopping cart object where I save
the orders in hash tables during the session when the
session end also the hash table is deleted, this worked
fine , But I made a change , I save the object
in mysql data base with "psInsert.setObject(1, cart);"
where card is
"cart = (ShoppingCart) session.getValue ("cart");"
when the session end I tried to restore the object
from the mysql data base and I got this error;

"java.lang.ClassCastException: [B"

this error is produced for this code

cart = (ShoppingCart) session.getValue ("cart");
cart = (ShoppingCart) rs.getObject(2); <---- error


just in case the mysql is the field where i stored
shop_blob

CREATE TABLE shoppingcart (
shop_email VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL, /* email address */
shop_blob LONGBLOB NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY ( shop_email)
);
