When you use Class.forName(className)<\/code> method, className<\/code> has to be constructed from your package name and your Class<\/code> name without the .class<\/code> extension.<\/p>\n

For ro.movieapp.activities.MovieActivity.class<\/code> your call should be something like this: Class.forName(\"ro.movieapp.activities.MovieActivity\")<\/code>.<\/p>\n

That being said, it is a really bad idea to do it because it’s an easy source of bugs (your question is a good example). You should keep a reference to your activity’s Class<\/code> inside your Movie<\/code> object.<\/p>\n

My suggestion is to do something like this:<\/p>\n

class Movie {\n\n    private Class<?> activityClass;\n\n    public <C extends AppCompatActivity> void setActivityClass(Class<C> activityClass) {\n        this.activityClass = activityClass;\n    }\n\n    @SuppressWarnings(\"unchecked\")\n    public <C extends AppCompatActivity> Class<C> getActivityClass() {\n        return (Class<C>) activityClass;\n    }\n}\n\n...\n\nfinal Movie movie = new Movie();\nmovie.setActivityClass(MovieActivity.class);\n\n...\n\nfinal Intent intent = new Intent(getActivity(), movie.getActivityClass());\nstartActivity(intent);\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
