You could always do the following inside your loop:

def x = (it as Class).newInstance()

It strikes me that a dynamic language on the JVM should be able to do<br>
something along the lines of:<br>
<br>
{&#39;a.b.c&#39;, &#39;f.y.z.r&#39;, &#39;d.d.d&#39;}.each{<br>
        import it<br>
        def x = new it()<br>
        …<br>
}<br>
<br>
But I am beginning the thing that this is not possible in Groovy (or<br>
Java, JRuby, Clojure, Scala?) whereas it is possible on the PVM with<br>
Python. Mayhap Jython can, which means mayhap JRuby and Clojure can?<br>
