Creating Objects With User specified Name

Nov 17th, 2008

HI Folks ,

Sorry if it is the Repeated Question....

---> I want to Create An Object for a Class With user specified name.?

Example :
Class Name : Simple
User Specified Name for a Object : SunServer

i want like this

Simple "userSpecified Name" = new Simple();
how to replace the "userSpecified Name " variable in the above line with SunServer..

String UserSpecified = SunServer;

Simple UserSpecified = new Simple();

Above line is Wrong bcz we already defined UserSpecified Variable as a String Type and we cant create an Object for a class(Simple) with same variable.

i want to do create Objects with name as User specified "Something like at Runtime"
.

are you wanting dynamic variable names?

if so you can't do that in java
you can use an ArrayList or HashMap to store a name and a class

 Help with Code Tags 
 Java Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
String userSpecifiedName = "SunServer";
HashMap<String, Simple> map = new HashMap<String, Simple>();
 
Simple simpleClass = new Simple();
map.put(userSpecifiedName, simpleClass);
String userSpecifiedName = "SunServer";
HashMap<String, Simple> map = new HashMap<String, Simple>();

Simple simpleClass = new Simple();
map.put(userSpecifiedName, simpleClass);
