try this:
public Object makeInstance(String sClassName)
{
Class rClass = Class.forName(sClassName);
Object rObject = rClass.newInstance();
... do what you want with the object ...
return(rObject);
}
I've not included any checks for possible exceptions like 'ClassNotFound',
but the idea is sound (and I've tried it).
But the best is to read the javadoc documentation for java.lang.Class
