Okay, it's pretty easy to instantiate objects in Java through standard reflection. However there are many cases where you need to go beyond what reflection provides. For example, if there's no public constructor, you want to bypass the constructor code, or set final fields. There are numerous clever (but fiddly) approaches to getting around this and this library provides a simple way to get at them. You will find the official site here. (by easymock)

Nutrient – The #1 PDF SDK Library, trusted by 10K+ developers
Other PDF SDKs promise a lot - then break. Laggy scrolling, poor mobile UX, tons of bugs, and lack of support cost you endless frustrations. Nutrient’s SDK handles billion-page workloads - so you don’t have to debug PDFs. Used by ~1 billion end users in more than 150 different countries.

reflection and instantiation in java
If you provide more detail, I can probably give you a better answer. You should also checkout ClassGraph. It has tons of functions that can make usage of Reflection a whole lot easier.

Custom Annotation Scanning with Spring Boot
There are libraries like classgraph that can be used in java applications that do not use spring framework. If your application do not use spring framework or spring boot, you can refer to the classgraph library documentation and proceed.

Get list of objects/classes/interfaces under a package
I'm building an app with Jetpack Compose in Kotlin, and I would like to get a list of material icons from the package androidx.compose.material.icons. I think scanning the package and get the list of objects would be good enough, so I have tried using classgraph and reflections but both of them return an empty list even when I scanned with no filters i.e just input the package name (I followed their sample code). I hope someone who has done this before can show me the correct approach to this issue, thanks a lot

If you want to remove one language feature in Java what will be your pick and why?
I think objenesis is one of these.

Great answer
Ultimately, there is no reason that "Collections" should be a class. It can never be constructed (probably, though there's workarounds), and any code that treats it as a class is guaranteed to be a bug.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing ClassGraph and Objenesis you can also consider the following projects:
Reflections - Java runtime metadata analysis
jOOR - jOOR - Fluent Reflection in Java jOOR is a very simple fluent API that gives access to your Java Class structures in a more intuitive way. The JDK's reflection APIs are hard and verbose to use. Other languages have much simpler constructs to access type meta information at runtime. Let us make Java reflection better.
ReflectASM - High performance Java reflection
MOOS - C# x64 operating system programming with the .NET native ahead-of-time compilation technology.
