You can give the path name in double quotation and get the java class.From the java class you can get array of methods, and by iteration over the array of methods you can name of the methods by its .getName() method, and it can be converted to list.

Class class = Class.forName("com.nextenders.facadeimplementation.facade."
                    + className);
    Method[] mymethods = class.getMethods();

let me know if it works or not

Thanks, Punam

You can do it programmatically using reflection API (obj.getClass().getDeclaredMethods()) or using command line utility javap that is a part of your JDK distribution.

You can use Java Reflection API - To find out about how to use it go through http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/reflect/class/classMembers.html

Class personClass = Person.class;

//Get the methods
Method[] methods = personClass.getDeclaredMethods();

//Loop through the methods and print out their names
for (Method method : methods)
{
    System.out.println(method.getName());
}
