Description

Due to http://bugs.java.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=5041784, the type extraction from a validator for any array classes does not work in Java < 7.
This leads to the following failure in the test:

ValidatorTypeUtilTest
org.apache.sling.validation.impl.util.ValidatorTypeUtilTest
testGetValidatorTypeWithArrayType(org.apache.sling.validation.impl.util.ValidatorTypeUtilTest)
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Validators may not use parameterized types as type parameter. Only simple class types and arrays of class types are allowed.
