Class IllegalAccessException

public  class  java.lang.IllegalAccessException
    extends  java.lang.Exception  
{
        // Constructors
    public IllegalAccessException();	
    public IllegalAccessException(String  s);	
}

Thrown when an application tries to load in a class through its string name using

• the forName method in class Class
• the findSystemClass method in class ClassLoader
• the loadClass method in class ClassLoader

but the currently executing method does not have access to the definition of the specified class, because the class is not public and in another package.

An instance of this class can also be thrown when an application tries to create an instance of a class using the newInstance method in class Class, but the current method does not have access to the appropriate zero-argument constructor.
