Instantiation using Reflection

Instantiation using reflection in Java allows for dynamic creation of class instances through methods such as Constructor.newInstance() and Class.newInstance(). While Class.newInstance() is deprecated and bypasses compile-time exception checks, Constructor.newInstance() properly wraps exceptions, enforcing error handling. reflection can also create multiple instances of singleton classes, create arrays dynamically, and is limited by the inability to instantiate enum objects. Accessibility of constructors can be bypassed using the setAccessible() method, enabling greater flexibility in object creation through reflection.
