Help me, problem with java.lang.reflect.Field

[Nicky]

Hi,
I have a class like this
class A{
public String abc;
}

And i got another class use class A
{
A a = new A();
Field[] fields = a.getClass().getDeclaredFields();
}

The problem is that i can got the name of class A's fields but i cant
got the actual object to deal with. Because i dont know the name of the
class A's field, so i cant use a.a = "asd". I want to set value for
class A dynamically,

Please help me, thanks

Use one of the set methods provided by java.lang.reflect.Field, e.g.:

f.set(a, "asd");

You have already obtained the set of declared fields in an object "a".
To get the value of one of the fields in that object, call f.get(a) or
one of the other, typed methods (f.getLong() etc). To get the value of
the same field in another object (of the same class), do f.get(b),
etc. To set one of the fields, use f.set(a,val), f.set(b,val), etc.

This is described in the documentation for java.lang.reflect.Field,
which I would hope that you've read.

If this isn't what you are asking, you need to be much clearer.
