* serialized object or a class name. In the first case all dots in the name are replaced with
* slashes ('/') and ".ser" is appended ("place.for.beans.myBean" becomes "place/for/beans/myBean.ser").

*
* <p>If no such resource exists or if it contains no bean the name is interpreted as a class name of
* which an instance is then created.</p>
*
* <p>If a <code>BeanContext</code> instance is available the created bean is added to it.</p>
*
* <p>If the created Bean is an <code>Applet</code> or subclass and an <code>AppletInitializer</code>
* instance is available the applet is initialized and afterwards activated using the initializer. Additionally
* every instantiated <code>Applet</code> bean is initialized using the {@link Applet.init} method.
* Furthermore every applet gets a default <code>AppletStub</code>. The <code>Applet</code>'s
* document base is the location of the ".ser" file if it was deserialized or the location of its class
* file if it was instantiated.</p>
*
* <p>A <code>ClassNotFoundException</code> is not only thrown when a class name was unknown
* but even when the class has public no-argument constructor
* (<code>IllegalAccessException</code> is wrapped) or an exception is thrown while
* invoking such a constructor (causing exception is wrapped).</p>
