Hmmm. Given that the *only* distinction between the two forms of forName are
that the first implies initialize=true while the latter gives
initialize=false, I don't know why anyone would write that code. ???
Class.forName(className) is "equivalent to:
Class.forName(className, true, currentLoader)
where currentLoader denotes the defining class loader of the current class."
