How to get the initialisation value for a Java Class reference

Question

I have a Class reference for an arbitrary type. How to get that type\'s initialisation value? Is there some library method for this or do I have to rol

Answer 1

For completeness' sake, this is something that I think belongs to a reflection API, so I have added it to jOOR through #68

Object init = Reflect.initValue(klass);

Notably, Guava has a similar tool and there are JDK utilities that can do this as well
