I am not sure how say in a Java language a constructor can "conjure
up a value of an unknown type".
... Class anUnknownClass;
Object anInstance;
anInstance = anUnknownClass.getConstructor().newInstance();
If you know that the constructor will require arguments of
types T1 and T2, and you have suitable values v1, v2,
anInstance =
anUnknownClass.getConstructor(T1, T2).newInstance(v1, v2);
will do the job.
