FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2-beta-b19)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2-beta-b19, mixed mode)

FULL OS VERSION :
Microsoft Windows 2000 [Version 5.00.2195]

EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
MS Windows Scrip Host version 5.6

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
A simple test bean returns a Properties object froma amethod. The "getPropertyNames" method returns an Enumerator. Method calls on the numerator throw:

java.lang.IllegalAccessException: Class sun.plugin.com.MethodDispatcher can not access a member of class java.util.Hashtable$Enumerator with modifiers "public"
at sun.reflect.Reflection.ensureMemberAccess(Unknown Source)
at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Unknown Source)
at sun.plugin.com.MethodDispatcher.invoke(Unknown Source)
at sun.plugin.com.DispatchImpl.invoke(Unknown Source)

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Compile TestBean.java (below)
Put it in a Jar
Run packager against the jar
Put the jar in j2re1.4.2\axbridge\lib
Put the resultant DLL in j2re1.4.2\axbridge\bin
Register the dll using regsvr32

Create testbean.vbs with the script contents below.
Run in a DOS box using "cscript testbean.vbs"

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
Output from the script:

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
The bean code:

import java.util.*;

public class TestBean
{
public TestBean()
{
name = "defaultname";
}

public String getName()
{
return name;
}

public Properties getSystemEnvironment()
{
return System.getProperties();
}

public void setName(String newName)
{
name = newName;
}

private String name;
}

The script code (executed using Windows Script Engine):

set cn = CreateObject("TestBean.Bean")
oldname = cn.name
WScript.echo(oldname)
cn.name = "new name"
newname = cn.name
WScript.echo(newname)
set props = cn.systemEnvironment
set enumb = props.propertyNames()
WScript.echo("OK to here")
more = enumb.hasMoreElements
WScript.echo("End")
