Passing self reference to a method call.

Question

I have classes 'A' & 'B'.
A's method 'M1' calls a B's method 'M2'which takes object of type 'A' as an argument.
Is it possible to use 'this' keyword or do I need to use Class.forName('A')
If not, is there a better way to accomplish the same.
Ex:
public class A
public M1()
//calls a method M2 on B that takes object of type 'A' as argument
B b = new B().M2(this);
}//end of class
public class B
public Object M2(A a)
}//end of class B
Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Class.forName("A") returns an object of type Class, not an object of type A. So it won't work. this would work.
