I am doing a simple migration from Toplink 10g to native Eclipselink v2.6.4 by following the instructions here (particularly task 3 and 4). Everything compiles ok but when I try to run my app I get the error below.
I tried using the old mapping file (which is still compatible) as well as a new one generated from Eclipselink workbench by importing my old Toplink workbench project.
Note that I'm only doing a migration from Toplink to native Eclispelink. There is no JPA involved.
Any ideas on what`s wrong? It seems like it's trying to improperly using String instead of my actual class, but not sure.
Also, my app has never had a persistence.xml file. Do I need one now?

Here's what I ended up doing:
Now Eclipselink finds my classes and boots up.
Note that my code was only passing in the mapping file and not a classloader to
XMLProjectReader.read();so I guess was using the default classloader.If anyone knows of how to pass in a classloader I'd still be curious to know (where do I get it from?).
