[swift-users] Reflection in Swift 3?

[Rick Mann]

So, it seems there's still no way to do something like instantiate a class given only its name (as a String)?

In my situation, I have a number of subclasses (or protocol implementations), which parallel some other class hierarchy. I need to dynamically create one based on the name of another. I don't want the latter classes to "know" anything about the former.

Thanks,
