I am storing a list of classes through (Classname.class) and would like to instantiate one? Is this possible?
newInstance seems to the method I am after but it doesn’t support a constructor?
You cannot construct new classes this way.
If you have the name of a class you can use Class.forName(className) to load/reference a class.
If you have the byte code for a class you want to create you can have a class loader load the byte code and give you the class. This is likely to be more advanced than you intended.
