I am using version 3.8.0 and I am getting following exception. I am using the ChronicleMap without much customization. I am currently prototyping to exhibit ChronicleMap as a viable option to share data between different JVM processes on the same box. I do not see any problem when I create an instance where I am putting stuff into the ChronicleMap. But, when, I try to use ChronicleMap mainly as a reader then I am seeing this exception everytime.

Most likely reason is wrong version of chronicle-wire dependency used. Chronicle Map 3.8.0 is proven to work with chronicle-bom:1.11.16, which specifies Chronicle Wire version 1.3.6, but no other older or newer version of chronicle-bom or Chronicle Wire.
Update. The new Chronicle Map 3.9.0 version shouldn't have this issue regardless Chronicle Wire version used.
