Description

As of JDK7 update 21, the default setting for java.rmi.server.useCodebaseOnly is set to true by default, which has the impact of disabling run-time classloading for proxies.

As a result, the qa test suite encounters massive numbers of failures.

The fix is to update the qa runtime properties and policy files to set the property above to "false". As well, consumers of services (and also services, if they offer eventing) must be granted RuntimePermission for "accessClassInPackage.com.sun.proxy".
