| -c,-classname classname | Creates a new instance of a class given its fully qualified classname and calls the a constructor |
| -m,-method method | Calls an instance method on the object specified with -object or a static method if no -object |

| -f,-field field | Gets the value of a field of a static class or instance |
-variable is required and the name is the name of an existing or to be created variable in the current scope.
If -classname is passed then the classname is used to either create a new variable or if -m is specified calling a static method on classname.
If -method is supplied then an instance method is called (requires -object)
If -object is supplied then -method is required and the specified method is invoked on the object.

using the same boxing and conversions in Java Objects.
In all cases the result value (new object or return from method call) is assigned to the specified variable.
