GoogleAppEngine and BlazeDS

Google released a java version of the AppEngine. So I was very excited and wanted to see if I can host an application based on the Spring BlazeDS Integration framework. All was fine until I deployed the application and got a "Class Not Found" Exception. Looking at the log found the following: java.lang.management.ManagementFactory is a restricted class. Please see the Google App Engine developer's guide for more details. Check the docs and there is a list of "white-list" classes, and java.lang.management is not there :-(. Was so close! oh well, back to EC2 :-)
