loadClass

public static java.lang.Class loadClass(java.lang.ClassLoader loader,
                                        java.lang.String name)
                                 throws java.lang.ClassNotFoundException
This methods load a class given the classloader and the name of the class, and work for extended names of primitive types.

If you try to do ClassLoader.loadClass("boolean") it barfs it cannot find the class, so this method cope with this problem.

                                     throws java.lang.ClassNotFoundException
