The method java.beans.Beans.instantiate(ClassLoader cl, String beanName)
works wrong instantiating an applet with system class loader under Windows95.
This bug was introduced in JDK1.1.4.


==== Here is the test demonstrating the bug ====
--- SimpleApplet.java ---
import java.applet.*;

public class SimpleApplet extends Applet{}
--- --- --- --- --- ---

--- Test.java ---
import java.beans.*;
import java.applet.*;
public class Test{
    
    public static void main(String[] args){
Test test = new Test();
    }
    Test(){
String bname = "SimpleApplet";
Class bclass = SimpleApplet.class;
SimpleApplet bean;
try {
ClassLoader cl = this.getClass().getClassLoader();
bean = (SimpleApplet) Beans.instantiate(cl, bname);
} catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
    }
}
