Instantiate objects without using new operator

There are a couple of ways.

Here are *some* examples...

String test = "This is a test string.";

Double dbl = 42.9;

Select allOpen in new window

Also, do you mean something like this...

TransformerFactory factory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Transformer transformer = factory.newTransformer();

Select allOpen in new window

In the above, two object have been instantiated without explicitly using the new operator. However, do note that somewhere in those static factory methods, the new operator would have been used to actually instantiate the objects that were returned.
