> In JDK 1.5 and prior versions of Java 2, the name returned by Class.getName() could be used with ClassLoader.loadClass to load array types.  This behavior was considered a bug that has been fixed in JDK 1.6.  As a result, calls using encoded array names such as "L[java.lang.Object;" now fail with a ClassNotFoundException.
>  
> See Sun's Java CR 6446627 (http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6446627) et alia.  
> The recommended practice (and the only available option in JDK 1.6) is to use Class.forName(name, verify, classloader) to load a class with a specific class loader within the application.
