How to create a class instance by using class name in Java?

--
The Class.forName() method allows you to map a case-sensitive class name to the Class instance representing gaven class. Then you can invoke its newInstance() to create an instance of that class.  For Example:    Class tc = Class.forName("com.abcde.common.Type");
   Tyep myType = tc.newInstance();
In the event that the Class could not be found, resolved, verified, or loaded, Class.forName
throws one of several different Exceptions, all of which are listed in the javadoc page for
java.lang.Class.
Another example to check where class's jar file is:

    try {
        String qualifiedClassName="org.xbill.DNS.DSRecord";
        Class qc = Class.forName(qualifiedClassName);
        CodeSource source = qc.getProtectionDomain().getCodeSource();
        if ( source != null ) {
            URL location = source.getLocation();
            System.out.println( qualifiedClassName + " : " + location );
        }
        else {
            System.out.println( qualifiedClassName + " : "
                 + "unknown source, likely rt.jar" );
        }
     }
     catch ( Exception e ) {
        System.err.println( "Unable to locate class on command line." );
        e.printStackTrace();
     }

WebSphere MQ Interview Questions

What is MQ and what does it do? Ans. MQ stands for MESSAGE QUEUEING. WebSphere MQ allows application programs to use message queuing to participate in message-driven processing. Application programs can communicate across different platforms by using the appropriate message queuing software products. What is Message driven process? Ans . When messages arrive on a queue, they can automatically start an application using triggering. If necessary, the applications can be stopped when the message (or messages) have been processed. What are advantages of the MQ? Ans. 1. Integration. 2. Asynchrony 3. Assured Delivery 4. Scalability. How does it support the Integration? Ans. Because the MQ is independent of the Operating System you use i.e. it may be Windows, Solaris,AIX.It is independent of the protocol (i.e. TCP/IP, LU6.2, SNA, NetBIOS, UDP).It is not required that both the sender and receiver should be running on the same platform What is Asynchrony? Ans. With messag...

Asynchronous Vs. Synchronous Communications

Synchronous (One thread):   1 thread -> |<---A---->||<----B---------->||<------C----->| Synchronous (multi-threaded):   thread A -> |<---A---->| \ thread B ------------> ->|<----B---------->| \ thread C ----------------------------------> ->|<------C----->|
