Why does is java.lang.URL class not found from ColdFusion 10?

Question

Using facebook4j and to post a link you must create and supply a URL object. However when I try to do so I get a class not found error. Appears CF10 is running on JRE 7.0.15

For example this throws an error

<cfset testurl = createObject("java", "java.lang.URL").init("http://www.google.com") />

but this doesn't for a string object

<cfset testurl = createObject("java", "java.lang.String").init("http://www.google.com") />

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Right after posting of course I find some old documentation mentioning the class name is java.net.URL

Just when you start to think error messages always fib, they throw you a curve ball and tell you the truth ;-) FWIW, class names are also case sensitive. So java.net.URL works, but java.net.url would not.
