You need to show us the errors.
Anyway, in this case it's <class name>.class to get the Class instance.

The instanceof keyword is there for a purpose. Even if, sadly, its use exposes a faulty or weak design. As does testing the class of a parameter in any other way.

Again, you have to show us the error. But it sounds like it could be a problem with your classpath or a relative path.

jest in my if statement to use the class like

if(currentData.getClass() == core.data.CryptoFileData.class)
        {
            CryptoFileData data = (CryptoFileData)currentData;
            File outPath = new File(tf_rOutput.getText());
            data.setOutputFile(outPath);
            data.SetPassword(PwdDialog.getPasswordFromUser());
        }

is this the problem sir?..,
