Reflection accessing subclass

[askmax]

Hi,

Can anyone please tell me how I would access a subclass members with
reflection.
So for example:

public class MyTestClass
{
public class SourceObj
{
String mytest1;
}

String mytest1;
int mytest2;
long mytest3;
List<String> mytest4 = new java.util.ArrayList<String>();
HashMap<String,String> mytest5 = new HashMap<String, String>();
SourceObj mytest6 = new SourceObj();
}

I want to set the value of mytest6.mytest1

Thanks,
Max

Have you looked at <http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/reflect/>?

mytest6.mytest1="Foo".

So go ahead. But mytest6 is a SourceObj, which isn't a subclass of
anything except Object.

What is your *actual* problem?
