§1.31 Class IllegalAccessException

public  class  java.lang.IllegalAccessException
    extends  java.lang.Exception  (I-§1.30)
{
        // Constructors
    public IllegalAccessException();	§1.31.1
    public IllegalAccessException(String  s);	§1.31.2
}

Thrown when an application tries to load in a class through its string name using

the forName method (I-§1.3.1) in class Class
the findSystemClass method (I-§1.4.3) in class ClassLoader
the loadClass method in class ClassLoader (I-§1.4.4)

but the currently executing method does not have access to the definition of the specified class, because the class is not public and in another package.

An instance of this class can also be thrown when an application tries to create an instance of a class using the newInstance method (I-§1.3.7) in class Class, but the current method does not have access to the appropriate zero-argument constructor.
