I am a Java newbie so my questions may look like an easy one. But I need some direction from your guys.

Here is my question: I have a class with bunch of methods, I would like to give these methods to user in a combox to select, based on their selection some code will run. Now I can do this by writing switch selection method. Where based on selection I use switch to run a particular method.

But my list of functions is pretty long close to 200, SO my questions to you is: is there a smarter way of doing this.
Just point me to the right direction and I’ll try to do the rest.

    You can use reflection, specifically: Class.getMethods() or Class.getDeclaredMethods().

    Make sure you understand the differences between them (read the linked javadocs for this), if you don’t – don’t be afraid to ask.
