When I try to create a CIMDataType of type REFERENCE_ARRAY causes an
ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException.  I wonder what type of data it should
return when in this case?

You can run (as it creates REFERENCE_ARRAY CIMDateType)
  java org.snia.wbem.cim.CIMDataType

Or the Test Program:

import java.io.*;
import org.snia.wbem.cim.*;

public class TestCIMDataType
{
  public static void main(String args[])
  {

      CIMDataType dt = new CIMDataType(CIMDataType.REFERENCE);
      System.out.println("CASE 1: This one works:"+ dt);
      System.out.println(" ");

      dt = new CIMDataType(CIMDataType.REFERENCE_ARRAY);
      System.out.println("ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException"+ dt);
   }
}

Trace:
isClassDataInitialized is true  and inType=61
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 61
