Java - ClassNotFoundException I have the class included, but why do I get an exception?
<pre><code>public static Reservation[] openBinaryFile( String fileName )
{
    Reservation [] objArray = null;

    try
    { 
        ObjectInputStream inStream = new ObjectInputStream(
            new FileInputStream( fileName ) );

        objArray = (Reservation[])inStream.readObject();

        inStream.close();
    }
    catch( ClassNotFoundException e )
    {
        System.out.println( "Exception: ClassNotFoundException." );
    }
</code></pre>

<p>I have the class included, but why do I get an exception? The class is in the same package as the others. Why am I getting this exception?</p>

<p>EDIT: Here is the stack trace
