FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
JDK1.6.0-beta2

ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
windowXP

EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
JDK1.6.0-beta2

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
XMLEncoder miss write out javabean property of Point on JDK1.6.0-beta2,other JDK version 1.4 and 1.5 is ok.

REGRESSION. Last worked in version mustang

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
import java.awt.Point;

public class MyBean {

// if change code to: Point location = null.
// location information can be write out in xml.
    Point location = new Point();
 
    public Point getLocation() {
     return location;
    }

    public void setLocation(Point location) {
     this.location = location;
    }
