Hi,

I do not know where to ask that, so I try it here:

I want to load a (dynamically created) class via URL ClassLoader and
then invoke a public static method on it.

Here is the code:

		Class lexerDefs = Class.forName("parser.LexerDefs", true, loader);
		
		Method getLexerDefs = null;
		
		try {
			getLexerDefs = lexerDefs.getMethod("lexerDefs", new Class[] {});
		} catch (NoSuchMethodException e) {
			fail("Class " + lexerDefs.getName() + " has no method lexerDefs()\n"
+ e.getMessage());
		}
		
		parser.Options.inputFile = this.inputFile;

		System.err.println("invoking: " + getLexerDefs.toString());		

		Object retObject = getLexerDefs.invoke(null, new Object[0]);

But all I get is:
	Class test.TestParserGenerator can not access a member of class
parser.LexerDefs with modifiers "public static"

So loading class seems to work, but I cannot invoke a _public_ method? Why?

Anyone knows about reflection?
