> loadClass() first tries to construct an instance of cryptogenClass with a single properties parameter to the constructor. If this fails, it tries again with no arguments. If this second attempt fails, it reports a generic message saying "cannot create instance". This is not very helpful, as it does not pass on any error reported by the code.
> Perhaps it would be better to check which constructor exists, use that, and report any error back to the user? I have a patch to do this, which I will attach.
> Note: This causes a change in behaviour if the class has *both* constructors, since it will only try the one which takes the parameter. However, I think this is more likely to be the correct behaviour.
