> In JDK 1.5 and prior versions of Java 2, the name returned by Class.getName() coul
d be used with ClassLoader.loadClass to load array types.  This behavior was conside
red a bug that has been fixed in JDK 1.6.  As a result, calls using encoded array na
mes
such as "L[java.lang.Object;" now fail with a ClassNotFoundException.

> See Sun's Java CR 6446627 (http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/vie...64
46627) et alia.
> The recommended practice (and the only available option in JDK 1.6) is to use Clas
s.forName(name, verify, classloader) to load a class with a specific class loader wi
thin the application.
