Difference between Loading a class using ClassLoader and Class.forName

Question

Below are 2 code snippets

The first one uses ClassLoader class to load a specified class

ClassLoader cls = ClassLoader.getSystemClassL

Answer 1

there's also a difference when loading array-types. I think classloader.loadClass(clazz) cannot handle array-types, but Class.forName(clazz,true,classloader) can.
