This is pretty easy in Python using the __name__ attribute.

import sys

class A:
 def in(self):
   print("A in")
 def out(self):
   print("A out")

class B:
 def in(self):
   print("B in")
 def out(self):
   print("B out")

classes = {cls.__name__: cls for cls in (A, B)}

ArgType = classes[sys.agrv[1]]

arg = ArgType()

arg.in("test")
arg.out("test")
