			MyClassLoader cl = new MyClassLoader()
			

			

			

			Object o;
			

			

			

			Class c;
			

			

			

			c = cl.loadClass("ABC");
			

			

			o = c.newInstance();
			

			

			

			((ABC)o).someClassMethod();


Why does the casting in the last line of the Code fails?

Because it is loaded from a different classloader: you'll have ABC class inside system class loader, that is "logically distinct" from the ABC loaded by the one loaded by MyClassLoader. Try to specifying the parent on MyClassLoader passing the SystemClassLoader.
