Just thinking aloud here... is there anywhere in your program that you are using Java Reflection?

Beyond this I am afraid I have no more ideas for now :-(

Later,
Andoni.

  HI  Andoni, 
          Thanks for the reply, It uses association that too unidirectional, I have seen the option in sun forum as have you explained to me. I tried to compile classes like this for just to get that error. This scenario won't compile, It gave me a error saying "cycling inheritence".
  Do you know any other scenarios which could cause this problem.
   
  Thanks,
  Jagadish

  Hi Jagadish,

  Do you have a drawing of all your inheritance relationships? This error seems to be caused by a circular inheritance relationship i.e.:

  class ClassOne extends ClassTwo {
  ...
  }

  class ClassTwo extends ClassOne {
  ...
  }

  Obviously there could be many more than two classes involved so it may be best to draw out the class tree. Specially if it is complicated.

  Hope that helps.

  Andoni.
