Java: creating objects of arrays with different names at runtime and accessing/updating them
- by scriptingalias
Hello,
I'm trying to create a class that can instantiate arrays at runtime by giving each array a "name" created by the createtempobjectname() method. I'm having trouble making this program run. I would also like to see how I could access specific objects that were created during runtime and accessing those arrays by either changing value or accessing them. This is my mess so far, which compiles but gets a runtime exception.
import java.lang.reflect.Array;
public class arrays
{
private static String temp;
public static int name = 0;
public static Object o;
public static Class c;
public static void main(String... args)
{
assignobjectname();
//getclassname();//this is supposed to get the name of the object and somehow
//allow the arrays to become updated using more code?
}
public static void getclassname()
{
String s = c.getName();
System.out.println(s);
}
public static void assignobjectname()//this creates the object by the name returned
{ //createtempobjectname()
try
{
String object = createtempobjectname();
c = Class.forName(object);
o = Array.newInstance(c, 20);
}
catch (ClassNotFoundException exception)
{
exception.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static String createtempobjectname()
{
name++;
temp = Integer.toString(name);
return temp;
}
}
