Unsafe call to 'Class.newInstance()'
Reports calls to java.lang.Class.newInstance().

A quick-fix is suggested to replace the call with a call to the java.lang.reflect.Constructor.newInstance() method, which avoids this problem by wrapping any exception thrown by the constructor in a (checked) java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException.
Example:
After the quick-fix is applied:
