  ****************************************************************
  Setting an anyType property to a simple value should throw a
  ClassCastException in BO-mode, as in SDO-mode. The
  specification behavior had been modified to avoid a
  ClassCastException for BO-mode, but this is no longer a
  requirement.
  

Problem conclusion

• Setting an anyType property to a simple value will now throw a
  ClassCastException in BO-mode.
  
  APAR PM18740 is currently targeted for inclusion in Service
  Level (Fix Pack) 1.0.1.7 of WebSphere Application Server v7
  Feature Pack for Service Component Architecture (SCA) Refresh
