Dynamic instantiate

[zhanghong920]

Hi all,

I'm trying to read the class name from a configure file, and then create an instant of it. The related classes are:

//G:
public interface G{
public void setProperties(Properties p);
public void setDBConnect();
}

//F:
public class F extends SF implements G{
//implement setProperties(), setDBConnect(), and other overriding methods defined in the superclass SF.
}

//A:
public class A{
public static void main(..){
String className = ... //get from the configure file
Properties p = ... //build according to the configuring

Object obj = Class.forName(className).newInstance();
G obj = (G) obj;
obj.setProperties(p);
}
}

Some other unrelated lines are omitted here. The problem is: it's fine in compiling. But when I run: "java A",there's an error message as below:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IncompatibleClassChangeError: class abb.dlt.oai.client.F has interface abb.dlt.oai.client.G as super class
at java.lang.Class.forName0(Native Method)
at java.lang.Class.forName(Class.java:130)
at abb.dlt.oai.client.A.main(A.java:63)

Anything I missed? Thanks a lot,

Sorry I forgot to mention that:
the content of "className" in the main() of A is:
"abb.dlt.oai.client.F"

Thanks for any help.
