Yes, as they will use potentially different classloaders. If you really
want them to be equal I would suggest changing 2 to:
Object o = Beans.instantiate(this.getClass().getClassLoader(),
"com.telesoft.database.DbConfig");
Specifying null will make instantiate use the thread context classloader
(read about it in the docs dude ;-) ). Supplying a classloader gives you
more control of exactly how classloading is accomplished.
Hope this helps :-)
