Can I use Class.newInstance() with constructor arguments?

Question

I would like to use Class.newInstance() but the class I am instantiating does not have a nullary constructor. Therefore I need to be able to pass in constructor arguments. Is there a way to do this?

Answer 1

You can get other constructors with getConstructor(...).

Answer 2

Class.getDeclaredConstructors(types list).newInstance(args list);

Answer 3

Class.getDeclaredConstructor(String.class).newInstance("HERESMYARG");

Answer 4

Do not use Class.newInstance(); see this thread: Why is Class.newInstance() evil?

Like other answers say, use Constructor.newInstance() instead.
