[android-developers] Re: reflection

Hi Zsolt,

Thanks for the response.

I am trying to alter something in android framework source , and this
calls for an addition of a new class in framework source.
But I did not want to add any new source under framework, instead
planned to have it under vendor and load that new class dynamically in
framework later.

So I was thinking if reflection will come in handy.

Regards,
Krt
