XStreamMarshaller does not support unmarshalling using SAX XMLReaders

[bassegio14]

I'm getting this error when update from spring 2.5.6 to 3.0.1.
After the update I could remove spring-ws-1.5.6-all.jar from my classpath , because it is contained in the new Spring release, but I had to add org.springframework.xml-1.5.9.A.jar.

When debugging I can see the public final Object unmarshal(Source source) method on the org.springframework.oxm.support.AbstractMarshaller being called with source having the type org.springframework.xml.transform.StaxSource.

However the test : StaxUtils.isStaxSource(source) returns false because this test succeeds if the type is org.springframework.util.xml.StaxSource.

In my spring config I have the following

<bean id="dataItemReader" class="org.springframework.batch.item.xml.StaxEventItemReader">
		<property name="fragmentRootElementName" value="request" />
		<property name="resource"
			value="file:${input.data.file}" />
		<property name="unmarshaller" ref="messageMarshaller" />
	</bean>

	<bean id="messageMarshaller" class="org.springframework.oxm.xstream.XStreamMarshaller">
		<property name="aliases">
			<util:map>
				<entry key="request" value="mypackage.Message" />
			</util:map>
		</property>
	</bean>

Is this a known problem ?
