Starting without �public static void main(String[] args) {} �

[jacob deiter]

public static void main(String[] args) {} is the point where program starts.But I do not want this,I want utility or loader or tool which load my java class,in that utility I specify the starting class and its method name.

Is there any way?

java.exe is the standard Java launcher and requires the class you call to have a main method.
However, you can write your own Java launcher and call whatever method you want. Take a look at the Native Invocation tutorial for some examples of how to do this.

Starting an application and loading a class are two separate things.
You can achieve the later by Class.forName();
