// Java program to demonstrate
// cast() method

import java.util.*;

public class Test {

    public static Object obj;

    public static void main(String[] args)
        throws ClassNotFoundException
    {

        // returns the Class object for this class
        Class myClass = Class.forName("Test");

        System.out.println("Class represented by myClass: "
                           + myClass.toString());

        // Cast the object obj to object of myClass
        // using cast() method
        System.out.println("Object " + obj + " after cast "
                           + "upon to class Test: "
                           + myClass.cast(obj));
