Hi,
I'm trying to figure out how to dynamically get access to a class
instance from a string.  Let's say I have a C string with
"NSRectangle" in it.  Is there a way to find the NSRectangle class and
then call alloc on it to generate an instance?  I see how to get a
Selector from a string, but I haven't found anything about getting a
class object.  Is there some part of the Obj-C runtime I can ask for
this info?


You're looking for the Foundation function NSClassFromString().
