Problem during dynamic casting

Question

Hi Guys,
Need you help
Situation is like this �.I have a function which accept the Sting parameter
Which is actually a full name of class �.using reflection I created the class and object
Now I want to cast this newly created object to their original class type
Code is somehow like this
Public void checkThis (String name) throws Exception{
Class c = Class.forName(name.trim());
Object o = c.newInstance();     
System.out.println(" class name = " + c.getName());
throw ()o; //// here I want to cast this object to their orginal class type
I tried throw (c.getName())o;
But it is not working
}

You are trying to do the impossible, for example, this just doesn't work:
String classname = ...
Class cls = Class.forName(classname);
Object obj = cls.newInstance();
classname x = (classname) obj; //??? There is no way to name this legal syntax!Solution: you must statically know an interface or superclass for the dynamic class:
Runnable r = (Runnable) obj;
new Thread(r).start(); //etcOr work with the Object reference, using reflection to apply methods, etc.
