EOEntity entity = EOModelGroup.defaultModelGroup().entityNamed(entityName); Class class = _NSUtilities.classWithName(entity.className()); Method method = class.getMethod(methodName, parameterTypes); method.invoke(null, parameters); //null target for static methods

For instance, you may be better served using the clazz pattern if you want static methods you can override.
