how to add collections of composite messages in rosjava

edit

much like this question, how do I go about adding a composite collection of messages within another message for publishing. The "new from type factory" method doesn't seem to work:

INFO: Registering subscriber: Subscriber<Topic<TopicIdentifier</chatter>, TopicDescription<test_composite_msgs/Outer, 3f4a2aed31229268793bfb902c4e86bd>>>
Exception in thread "pool-1-thread-9" java.lang.ClassCastException: org.ros.internal.message.$Proxy2 cannot be cast to org.ros.internal.message.RawMessage

Here's my loop code:

        protected void loop() throws InterruptedException {
            test_composite_msgs.Outer outter = node.getTopicMessageFactory().newFromType(test_composite_msgs.Outer._TYPE);//publisher.newMessage();
            outter.setInnerMsgs(new ArrayList<test_composite_msgs.Inner>());
            test_composite_msgs.Inner in = node.getTopicMessageFactory().newFromType(test_composite_msgs.Inner._TYPE);
            outter.getInnerMsgs().add(in);
            publisher.publish(outter);
            sequenceNumber++;
            Thread.sleep(1000);
        }

My example Inner and Outer messages definitions:

Outer.msg:

test_composite_msgs/Inner[] innerMsgs

Inner.msg:

string name
string value
