Instantiating class from the string variable

[voltron]

You can exec() the code in a dict and get the class as a value in the dict.

Thanks! Looks like what I need.

May I ask for more help? I'm trying to use following approach now

class_def = "class definition here"
globs = {}
exec(class_def, globs)
c = globs["ClassName"]()
# do something with c

To get class by name I parse class_def variable to extract class name. Is it possible to find class without knowing its name?
