    /**
     * Instantiate a bean.
     * <p>
     * The bean is created based on a name relative to a class-loader.
     * This name should be a dot-separated name such as "a.b.c".
     * <p>
     * In Beans 1.0 the given name can indicate either a serialized object
     * or a class.  Other mechanisms may be added in the future.  In
     * beans 1.0 we first try to treat the beanName as a serialized object
     * name then as a class name.
     * <p>
     * When using the beanName as a serialized object name we convert the
     * given beanName to a resource pathname and add a trailing ".ser" suffix.
     * We then try to load a serialized object from that resource.
     * <p>
     * For example, given a beanName of "x.y", Beans.instantiate would first
     * try to read a serialized object from the resource "x/y.ser" and if
     * that failed it would try to load the class "x.y" and create an
     * instance of that class.
     * <p>
     * If the bean is a subtype of java.applet.Applet, then it is given
     * some special initialization.  First, it is supplied with a default
     * AppletStub and AppletContext.  Second, if it was instantiated from
     * a classname the applet's "init" method is called.  (If the bean was
     * deserialized this step is skipped.)
     * <p>
     * Note that for beans which are applets, it is the caller's responsiblity
     * to call "start" on the applet.  For correct behaviour, this should be done
     * after the applet has been added into a visible AWT container.
     * <p>
     * Note that applets created via beans.instantiate run in a slightly
     * different environment than applets running inside browsers.  In
     * particular, bean applets have no access to "parameters", so they may
     * wish to provide property get/set methods to set parameter values.  We
     * advise bean-applet developers to test their bean-applets against both
     * the JDK appletviewer (for a reference browser environment) and the
     * BDK BeanBox (for a reference bean container).
     *
     * @param     cls         the class-loader from which we should create
     * 		              the bean.  If this is null, then the system
     *                        class-loader is used.
     * @param     beanName    the name of the bean within the class-loader.
     *   	              For example "sun.beanbox.foobah"
     * @param     beanContext The BeanContext in which to nest the new bean
     * @param     initializer The AppletInitializer for the new bean
     *
     * @exception java.lang.ClassNotFoundException if the class of a serialized
     *              object could not be found.
     * @exception java.io.IOException if an I/O error occurs.
