Changing Variable & Method Names

Question

I wish to call a colour from the java.awt package, & want to be able to enter the colour on the fly. how do I call 'theColourIWant' & append it to the end so I get Color.theColourIWant.
Another example would be to create multiple instances of a class by incrementing the name by one each time ie
myClass c1 = new myClass;
myClass c2 = new myClass;
& so forth by perhaps using a 'for' statement to increment c1 to c2 & higher. How do you call the new name after appending the incremented number to the 'c'.

Answer 1

There is nothing to stop you from creating a class that extends the java.awt.Color like this:
public class myColor extends Color {
    public final static Color myWhite          = new Color(255, 255, 255);
    public final static Color myLightGray   = new Color(192, 192, 192);
    public final static Color myGray            = new Color(128, 128, 128);
    public final static Color myDarkGray   = new Color(64, 64, 64);
    public final static Color myBlack          = new Color(0, 0, 0);
}Then you can just use myColor.myWhite
