Java: Dynamic Class Loading

Reflection can break encapsulation, be slow, and lead to code that is hard to maintain.

Reflection allows you to access private fields and methods, which can lead to violations of encapsulation, increasing the risk of bugs and security vulnerabilities. It can also degrade performance because runtime-type checks are more expensive than compile-time checks. For example, using Reflection to access private fields in a security-sensitive application could expose it to attacks.
