Object instance by name of class

[Ondrej Sevecek]

Hello,
how to create an instance of some object class by using the class's name?
For example, I want to fulfill this pseudocode:

class MyNewClass
{
....
}

Object NewInstanceOfClass = new CreateTheObjectByClassName("MyNewClass");
Many thanks in advance
Ondra.

using System.Reflection;

//if the containing assembly is already loaded
Activator.CreateInstance("MyNamespace.MyClass");
//if the assembly should be loaded at runtime
Assembly a = Assembly.Load(............)
object obj = a.CreateInstance("MyNamespace.MyClass");
