Casting error during validation with dynamically compiled modules

[aj-stein-gsa]

Describe the bug

It is unclear to me if this OSCAL-specific enough. I presume it is only an issue with OSCAL models validate-content -m ... instance.xml -c constraints.xml, but we need to confirm the issue with other models (perhaps inline Metaschema's own module definitions). If you perform such a command with an OSCAL model and document instance, you will receive an exception and stack trace.

Who is the bug affecting

Developers and engineers using validate-content for iterative development and debugging.

How do we replicate this issue

1. Run a command like below with OSCAL content.
2. Review the exception.

me@computer fedramp-automation % ~/opt/bin/oscal-cli --version
~/opt/bin/oscal-cli metaschema validate-content '/home/me/fedramp-automation/src/content/rev5/examples/ssp/xml/fedramp-ssp-example.oscal.xml' -m  ~/Code/oscal/src/metaschema/oscal_complete_metaschema.xml -c '/home/me/fedramp-automation/src/validations/constraints/fedramp-external-allowed-values.xml' -c '/home/me/fedramp-automation/src/validations/constraints/fedramp-external-constraints.xml' -c '/home/me/fedramp-automation/src/validations/constraints/oscal-external-constraints.xml' --show-stack-trace

Expected behavior (i.e. solution)

The validate-content command should complete execution successfully without exceptions.

@aj-stein-gsa I don't see a stack trace in the output above. Am I missing something?

Ugh, I didn't realize in my haste that the log (even in GitHub Gist) is truncated. I will update!
