java get classname

To get the name of a class in Java, you can use the getName() method of the Class class. This method returns a string that represents the fully qualified name of the class.

Here's an example of how to use the getName() method to get the name of a class:

public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    Class cls = java.util.Date.class;
    String className = cls.getName();
    System.out.println(className); // prints "java.util.Date"
  }
}

In this example, the getName() method is called on the Class object for the java.util.Date class to get the name of the class as a string.

You can also use the getSimpleName() method of the Class class to get the simple name of the class (i.e., the name of the class without the package name).
