Instances of the class Class
represent classes and interfaces
in a running Java application. Every array also belongs to a class that is
reflected as a Class
object that is shared by all arrays with
the same element type and number of dimensions. The primitive Java types
(boolean
, byte
, char
,
short
, int
, long
,
float
, and double
), and the keyword
void
are also represented as Class
objects.
Class
has no public constructor. Instead Class
objects are constructed automatically by the Java Virtual Machine as classes
are loaded and by calls to the defineClass
method in the class
loader.
The following example uses a Class
object to print the
class name of an object:
void printClassName(Object obj) { System.out.println("The class of " + obj + " is " + obj.getClass().getName()); }

Method Detail |
public String toString()
getName
. If this Class
object represents a
primitive type, this method returns the name of the primitive type. If
this Class
object represents void this method returns
"void".public static Class forName(String className) throws ClassNotFoundException
Class
object associated with the class or
interface with the given string name. Invoking this method is
equivalent to:
whereClass.forName(className, true, currentLoader)
currentLoader
denotes the defining class loader of
the current class.
For example, the following code fragment returns the
runtime Class
descriptor for the class named
java.lang.Thread
:
Class t = Class.forName("java.lang.Thread")
A call to forName("X") causes the class named X to be initialized.
className
- the fully qualified name of the desired class.Class
object for the class with the
specified name.public static Class forName(String name, boolean initialize, ClassLoader loader) throws ClassNotFoundException
Class
object associated with the class or
interface with the given string name, using the given class loader.
Given the fully qualified name for a class or interface (in the same
format returned by getName
) this method attempts to
locate, load, and link the class or interface. The specified class
loader is used to load the class or interface. If the parameter
loader
is null, the class is loaded through the bootstrap
class loader. The class is initialized only if the
initialize
parameter is true
and if it has
not been initialized earlier.
If name
denotes a primitive type or void, an attempt
will be made to locate a user-defined class in the unnamed package whose
name is name
. Therefore, this method cannot be used to
obtain any of the Class
objects representing primitive
types or void.
If name
denotes an array class, the component type of
the array class is loaded but not initialized.
For example, in an instance method the expression:
is equivalent to:Class.forName("Foo")
Note that this method throws errors related to loading, linking or initializing as specified in Sections 12.2, 12.3 and 12.4 of The Java Language Specification.Class.forName("Foo", true, this.getClass().getClassLoader())
If the loader
is null
, and a security
manager is present, and the caller's class loader is not null, then this
method calls the security manager's checkPermission
method
with a RuntimePermission("getClassLoader")
permission to
ensure it's ok to access the bootstrap class loader.

public Object newInstance() throws InstantiationException, IllegalAccessException
new
expression with an empty argument list. The class is initialized if it
has not already been initialized.
If there is a security manager, this method first calls the security
manager's checkMemberAccess
method with this
and Member.PUBLIC
as its arguments. If the class is in a
package, then this method also calls the security manager's
checkPackageAccess
method with the package name as its
argument. Either of these calls could result in a SecurityException.
Class
represents an abstract class,
an interface, an array class,
a primitive type, or void;
or if the instantiation fails for some other reason.public boolean isInstance(Object obj)
Object
is assignment-compatible
with the object represented by this Class
. This method is
the dynamic equivalent of the Java language instanceof
operator. The method returns true
if the specified
Object
argument is non-null and can be cast to the
reference type represented by this Class
object without
raising a ClassCastException.
It returns false
otherwise.
Specifically, if this Class
object represents a
declared class, this method returns true
if the specified
Object
argument is an instance of the represented class (or
of any of its subclasses); it returns false
otherwise. If
this Class
object represents an array class, this method
returns true
if the specified Object
argument
can be converted to an object of the array class by an identity
conversion or by a widening reference conversion; it returns
false
otherwise. If this Class
object
represents an interface, this method returns true
if the
class or any superclass of the specified Object
argument
implements this interface; it returns false
otherwise. If
this Class
object represents a primitive type, this method
returns false
.
obj
- the object to checkpublic boolean isAssignableFrom(Class cls)
Class
object is either the same as, or is a superclass or
superinterface of, the class or interface represented by the specified
Class
parameter. It returns true
if so;
otherwise it returns false
. If this Class
object represents a primitive type, this method returns
true
if the specified Class
parameter is
exactly this Class
object; otherwise it returns
false
.
Specifically, this method tests whether the type represented by the
specified Class
parameter can be converted to the type
represented by this Class
object via an identity conversion
or via a widening reference conversion. See The Java Language
Specification, sections 5.1.1 and 5.1.4 , for details.
public boolean isInterface()

Class
object represents a
primitive type.
There are nine predefined Class
objects to represent
the eight primitive types and void. These are created by the Java
Virtual Machine, and have the same names as the primitive types that
they represent, namely boolean
, byte
,
char
, short
, int
,
long
, float
, and double
.
These objects may only be accessed via the following public static
final variables, and are the only Class

public String getName()
Class
object, as a String
.
If this Class
object represents a class of arrays, then
the internal form of the name consists of the name of the element type
in Java signature format, preceded by one or more "["
characters representing the depth of array nesting. Thus:
returns "(new Object[3]).getClass().getName()
[Ljava.lang.Object;
" and:
returns "(new int[3][4][5][6][7][8][9]).getClass().getName()
[[[[[[[I
". The encoding of element type names
is as follows:
The class or interface name classname is given in fully qualified form as shown in the example above.B byte C char D double F float I int J long Lclassname; class or interface S short Z boolean
public ClassLoader getClassLoader()
If a security manager is present, and the caller's class loader is
not null and the caller's class loader is not the same as or an ancestor of
the class loader for the class whose class loader is requested, then
this method calls the security manager's checkPermission
method with a RuntimePermission("getClassLoader")
permission to ensure it's ok to access the class loader for the class.
If this object represents a primitive type or void, null is returned.

public Class getSuperclass()
Class
representing the superclass of the entity
(class, interface, primitive type or void) represented by this
Class
. If this Class
represents either the
Object
class, an interface, a primitive type, or void, then
null is returned. If this object represents an array class then the
Class
object representing the Object
class is
returned.public Package getPackage()
Packages have attributes for versions and specifications only if the information was defined in the manifests that accompany the classes, and if the class loader created the package instance with the attributes from the manifest.
public Class[] getInterfaces()
If this object represents a class, the return value is an array
containing objects representing all interfaces implemented by the
class. The order of the interface objects in the array corresponds to
the order of the interface names in the implements
clause
of the declaration of the class represented by this object. For
example, given the declaration:
suppose the value ofclass Shimmer implements FloorWax, DessertTopping { ... }
s
is an instance of
Shimmer
; the value of the expression:
is thes.getClass().getInterfaces()[0]
Class
object that represents interface
FloorWax
; and the value of:
is thes.getClass().getInterfaces()[1]
Class
object that represents interface
DessertTopping
.
If this object represents an interface, the array contains objects
representing all interfaces extended by the interface. The order of the
interface objects in the array corresponds to the order of the interface
names in the extends
clause of the declaration of the
interface represented by this object.
If this object represents a class or interface that implements no interfaces, the method returns an array of length 0.
If this object represents a primitive type or void, the method returns an array of length 0.
public Class getComponentType()
Class
representing the component type of an
array. If this class does not represent an array class this method
returns null.Array

using the methods of class Modifier
.
If the underlying class is an array class, then its
public
, private
and protected
modifiers are the same as those of its component type. If this
Class
represents a primitive type or void, its
public
modifier is always true
, and its
protected
and private
modifers are always
false
. If this object represents an array class, a
primitive type or void, then its final
modifier is always
true
and its interface modifer is always
false
. The values of its other modifiers are not determined
by this specification.
The modifier encodings are defined in The Java Virtual Machine Specification, table 4.1.

public Object[] getSigners()
public Class getDeclaringClass()
Class
object
is a member of another class, returns the Class
object
representing the class in which it was declared. This method returns
null if this class or interface is not a member of any other class. If
this Class
object represents an array class, a primitive
type, or void,then this method returns null.public Class[] getClasses()
Class
objects representing all
the public classes and interfaces that are members of the class
represented by this Class
object. This includes public
class and interface members inherited from superclasses and public class
and interface members declared by the class. This method returns an
array of length 0 if this Class
object has no public member
classes or interfaces. This method also returns an array of length 0 if
this Class
object represents a primitive type, an array
class, or void.
For this class and each of its superclasses, the following
security checks are performed:
If there is a security manager, the security manager's
checkMemberAccess
method is called
with this
and Member.PUBLIC
as its arguments, where this
is this class or the superclass
whose members are being determined. If the class is in a package, then
the security manager's checkPackageAccess
method is also called with the package name
as its argument. Either of these calls could result in a SecurityException.
SecurityManager.checkMemberAccess(Class, int)
,
SecurityManager.checkPackageAccess(String)
public Field[] getFields() throws SecurityException
Field
objects reflecting all
the accessible public fields of the class or interface represented by
this Class
object. The elements in the array returned are
not sorted and are not in any particular order. This method returns an
array of length 0 if the class or interface has no accessible public
fields, or if it represents an array class, a primitive type, or void.
Specifically, if this Class
object represents a class,
this method returns the public fields of this class and of all its
superclasses. If this Class
object represents an
interface, this method returns the fields of this interface and of all
its superinterfaces.
If there is a security manager, this method first
calls the security manager's checkMemberAccess
method
with this
and Member.PUBLIC
as its arguments. If the class is in a package, then this method
also calls the security manager's checkPackageAccess
method with the package name
as its argument. Either of these calls could result in a SecurityException.
The implicit length field for array classs is not reflected by this
method. User code should use the methods of class Array
to
manipulate arrays.
