 * <p>This class contains a static method for creating an instance of a
 * class from an explicit class name.  It tries to use the thread's context
 * ClassLoader if possible and falls back to using
 * Class.forName(String).  It also takes into account JDK 1.2+'s
 * AccessController mechanism for performing its actions.  </p>
 *
 * <p>This code is designed to compile and run on JDK version 1.1 and later
 * including versions of Java 2.</p>
 *
 * <p>This is <strong>not</strong> the NewInstance accompanying SAX 2.0.2; it
 * represents many fixes to that code.
