Method Detail

getConcreteConstructor

public static <T> java.lang.reflect.Constructor<T> getConcreteConstructor(java.lang.Class<T> abstractClass,
                                                                          java.lang.Class<?>... argTypes)
                                                               throws java.lang.ClassNotFoundException

Get the constructor of the concrete, dynamic wrapper class of the given abstract class with matching argument types.

Parameters:

the - argTypes of the constructor to look for. null signify default constructor.

Throws:

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException

makeConcrete

public static <T> java.lang.Class<? extends T> makeConcrete(java.lang.Class<T> abstractClass)
                                                 throws java.lang.ClassNotFoundException

Takes an abstract class and returns a concrete implementation. Note that it doesn't actually implement any abstract methods, it merely makes an abstract class loadable. Abstract methods will throw a AbstractMethodError.

Parameters:

abstractClass - the abstract class

Returns:

a concrete class

Throws:

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException

newInstance

public static <T> T newInstance(java.lang.reflect.Constructor<T> cons,
                                java.lang.Object... params)

Construct a new instance by the given constructor and its arguments. Hopefully faster than looking for constructor in overloaded implementations.

newInstance

public static <T> T newInstance(java.lang.Class<T> c,
                                java.lang.Class<?>[] paramTypes,
                                java.lang.Object[] params)

Utility method for safely invoking a constructor that we do not expect to throw exceptions.

Parameters:

c - the class to construct

paramTypes - the types of the parameters

params - the parameter values

Returns:

the new instance
