[java] ClassLoader
Author
I''ve been experimenting with the ClassLoader, and everything seems to work up to the point where I have a Class object of my newly loaded .class file. This is the class I''m loading;
public class Tester
{
public void doSomething()
{
System.out.println("w00t");
}
}
If newclass is the Tester class I just loaded, how do I call doSomething() from ''o''?
Object o = newclass.newInstance();
//o.doSomething()

The class is loaded at runtime, so the name of the class can''t be hardcoded (because it could be called anything)
Look classes at package java.lang.reflect
In particular java.lang.reflect.Method
Everybody of us who like code in C++ would like these were part of it.

Since the name of the method you are calling is obviously hardcoded, have the class you load implement an interface with the appropriate method and cast to that.

thanks Pepe, I had been trying to cast it to a superclass that defined the same method, but I couldn't get it to work. Your suggestion works great however, thanks again
