Different Ways to Create Objects

There are at least four ways to create a new object:

1) Using new

    Car obj = new Car();

2) Using clone

    Car a = new Car();
    Car b = (Car) a.clone();

3) Using Class.forName(...)

    Car obj2 = (Car) Class.forName("Car").newInstance();

4) De-serializing

    InputStream instream = new FileInputStream("Car.ser");
    ObjectInputStream in = new ObjectInputStream(instream);
    Car object = (Car) in.readObject();

although technically, a de-serialized object is an old object that’s been reloaded - possibly...
