Method Detail

newInstance

public static Object newInstance(String className,
                                 Object[] consArgs)

Create a new instance of the an object with the passed in class name and passing the arguments passed in to the constructor

Parameters:

className - the name of the class to construct

consArgs - an array of the arguments, or null if no arguments; see convenience constructors if you don't want to have to make the array yourself Note, uses the class types of the passed in arguments to find the constructor

Returns:

a new instance of hte object

newInstanceIfExists

public static Object newInstanceIfExists(String className,
                                         Object[] consArgs)

Same as newInstance, only returns null if class doesn't exist, without throwing an exception.

newInstance

public static Object newInstance(String className,
                                 Object[] consArgs,
                                 Class[] paramTypes)

Create a new instance of the an object with the passed in class name and passing the arguments passed in to the constructor

Parameters:

className - the name of the class to construct

consArgs - an array of the arguments, or null if no arguments; see convenience constructors if you don't want to have to make the array yourself

paramTypes - the param types of the constructor to invoke

Returns:

a new instance of hte object
