(cl spec) ClassLoader.loadClass() clarification to indicate it shouldn't be used for array classes

XMLWordPrintable

      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      As a follow up to the evaluation in bug #6446627 I am requesting that the Javadoc for ClassLoader.loadClass(String, boolean) be updated to explicitly note that parameter "name" does not accept array classes and Class.forName() should be used instead.
