Java Class.forName() is a static method in the Java Class class used to dynamically load a class by its fully qualified name. This method is often used in situations where classes need to be loaded at runtime, such as in reflection-based operations or when working with plugins. Introduced in Java 1995 with Java 1.0, forName() allows developers to instantiate classes dynamically without hardcoding class names, which is essential for flexible, extensible applications.
