Java - Compile using .class file

I have the following java class:

public class ExampleClass{

    public static void main(String[] args){
        Operation op1 = new Operation();
    }
}

And then in another location I have this class:

public class Operation{
    public int value;
}

Is it possible to create a new Operation object in ExampleClass WITHOUT directly importing Operation in ExampleClass. I want to compile de Operation.java, then copy the resulted Operation.class file to the location of ExampleClass and use this file to compile ExampleClass.java. Is such a thing possible ?

You can get new instance of Operation by reflection without import it in code.

try {
    Class.forName("package.Operation").getConstructor().newInstance();
} catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}

replace package.Operation with the package of Operation class.
