Java Tutorial

Java is a high-level programming language

originally developed by Sun Microsystems andreleased in 1995. Java runs on a variety of

platforms, such as Windows, Mac OS, and the

various versions of UNIX. This tutorial gives acomplete understanding on Java.

This reference will take you through simple

and practical approach while learning JavaProgramming language.

Prerequisites

Before you start doing practice with various

types of examples given in this reference, I'm

making an assumption that you are already

aware about what is a computer program and

what is a computer programming language.


3/366

Where It Is UsedAccording to Sun, 3 billion devices run Java. There are

many devices where Java is currently used. Some ofthem are as follows:

1. Desktop Applications such as acrobat reader, mediaplayer, antivirus etc.

2. Web Applications such as irctc.co.in3. Enterprise Applications such as banking applications.

4. Mobile

5. Embedded System

6. Smart Card7. Robotics

8. Games etc.

4/366

Types Of Java Applications

There are mainly 4 type of applications that can becreated using Java:

1) Standalone Application

It is also known as desktop application or window-based application. An application that we need to

installon every machine such as media player, antivirus etc.AWT and Swing are used in Java for creatingstandalone applications.

2) Web ApplicationAn application that runs on the server side and createsdynamic page, is called web application. Currently,servlet, jsp, struts, jsf etc. technologies are used forcreating web applications in Java.

3) Enterprise Application

An application that is distributed in nature, such asbanking applications etc. It has the advantage of highlevel security, load balancing and clustering. In Java,EJB is used for creating enterprise applications.

4) Mobile Application

An application that is created for mobile devices.

Currently Android and Java ME are used for creatingmobileapplications.

Java Overview Java programming language was originally

developed by Sun Microsystems, which wasinitiated by James Gosling and released in 1995as core component of Sun Microsystems Javaplatform (Java 1.0 [J2SE]).

As of December 08 the latest release of the JavaStandard Edition is 6 (J2SE).

With the advancement of Java and its wide

spread popularity, multiple configurations werebuilt to suite various types of platforms.

Ex: J2EE for Enterprise Applications, J2ME forMobile Applications.

8/366

Features Of Java

Object Oriented :In java everything is an Object.Java can be easily extended since it is based onthe Object model.

Platform independent:Unlike many other

programming languages including C and C++when Java is compiled, it is not compiled intoplatform specific machine, rather into platformindependent byte code. This byte code isdistributed over the web and interpreted byvirtual Machine (JVM) on whichever platform it isbeing run.


9/366

Features Of Java Cont.. Simple :Java is designed to be easy to learn. If

you understand the basic concept of OOP javawould be easy to master.

Secure :With Java's secure feature it enables to

develop virus-free, tamper-free systems.Authentication techniques are based on public-key encryption.

Architectural- neutral :Java compiler generates

an architecture-neutral object file format whichmakes the compiled code to be executable onmany processors, with the presence Java runtimesystem.


10/366

Features Of Java Cont.. Portable :being architectural neutral and having no

implementation dependent aspects of the specificationmakes Java portable. Compiler and Java is written inANSI C with a clean portability boundary means Wemay carry the Java byte code to any platform.

Robust :Robust simply means strong. Java uses strongmemory management. There are lack of pointers thatavoids security problem. There is automatic garbagecollection in Java. There is exception handling and typechecking mechanism in Java. All these points makes

Java robust. Multi-threaded :With Java's multi-threaded feature it

is possible to write programs that can do many taskssimultaneously. This design feature allows developersto construct smoothly running interactive applications.


11/366

Features Of Java Cont.. Interpreted :Java byte code is translated on the fly to

native machine instructions and is not storedanywhere. The development process is more rapid andanalytical since the linking is an incremental and lightweight process.

High Performance:With the use of Just-In-Timecompilers Java enables high performance.

Distributed :Java is designed for the distributedenvironment of the internet.

Dynamic :Java is considered to be more dynamic thanC or C++ since it is designed to adapt to an evolvingenvironment. Java programs can carry extensiveamount of run-time information that can be used to

verify and resolve accesses to objects on run-time.

My First Java Programme

public class MyFirstJavaProgram {

public static void main(String []args) {System.out.println("Hello World");

}

}


13/366

Understanding first java program

class is used to declare a class in Java.

public is an access modifier which represents visibility,it means it is visible to all.

static is a keyword, if we declare any method as static,it is known as static method. The core advantage ofstatic method is that there is no need to create object

to invoke the static method. The main method isexecuted by the JVM, so it doesn't require to createobject to invoke the main method.So it saves memory.

void is the return type of the method, it means it

doesn't return any value,main represents startup of the program.

String[] args is used for command line argument. Wewill learn it later.System.out.println() is used print statement.


14/366

What happens at compile time?

At compile time, Java file is compiled by Java Compiler (It

does not interact with OS) and converts the Java codeinto bytecode.


15/366

What happens at runtime?

Classloader: is the subsystem of JVM that is used to load class files.

Bytecode Verifier: checks the code fragments for illegal code that can violate accesss

right to objects.

Interpreter: read bytecode stream then execute the instructions.


16/366

Questions

Can you save a java source file by other name

than the class name?

Can you have a empty java file?

What if no one class have main function?

How to print Hello World without main

function?

Can you have multiple classes in a java source

file?


17/366

Java is an Object Oriented Language

As a language that has the Object Orientedfeature Java supports the following

fundamental concepts:

1) Classes

2) Objects

3) Encapsulation

4) Abstraction

5) Inheritance6) Polymorphism


18/366

Objects

Let us now look deep into what are objects. If

we consider the real-world we can find manyobjects around us, Cars, Dogs, Humans etc. All

these objects have a state and behavior.

An object is an instance of a class. Therelationship is such that many objects can be

created using one class. Each object has its

own data but its underlying structure (i.e., thetype of data it stores, its behaviors) are

defined by the class.
http://java.about.com/od/c/g/Class.htmhttp://java.about.com/od/c/g/Class.htm


19/366

Classes

A class--the basic building block of an object-

oriented language such as Java

A class is a blue print from which individual

objects are created.

A class specifies the design of an object. Itstates what data an object can hold and the

way it can behave when using the data.

Class is a template that describes the data andbehavior associated with instancesof that

class.


20/366

Classes

The data associated with a class or object is

stored in variables.

The behavior associated with a class or object

is implemented with methods.(Methods are

similar to the functions or procedures inprocedural languages such as C).

Cl E l


21/366

Class Examplepublic class Book {

private String title;

private String author;

private String publisher;

public Book(String bookTitle, String authorName,

String publisherName) {title = bookTitle;

author = authorName;

publisher = publisherName;

}

//all getter and setter methods

}

Obj E l


22/366

Object ExampleAn instance of this class will be a book object:

Book firstBook = new Book(Complete

Reference",ABC",XYZ");Objects can be created by using newkeyword in java.

As mentioned previously a class provides the blueprints forobjects. So basically an object is created from a class. In

java the new key word is used to create new objects.There are three steps when creating an object from a class:

Declaration . A variable declaration with a variable name withan object type. Like Book firstBook

Instantiation . The 'new' key word is used to create theobject.

Initialization . The 'new' keyword is followed by a call to aconstructor. This call initializes the new object.

eg. new Book();


23/366

More Details Of Class A class can contain any of the following

variable types.1) Local variables

2) Instance variables

3) Class variables


24/366


25/366

Rules For Local Variable Local variables are declared in methods, constructors,

or blocks. Local variables are created when the method,

constructor or block is entered and the variable will bedestroyed once it exits the method, constructor orblock.

Access modifiers cannot be used for local variables. Local variables are visible only within the declared

method, constructor or block.

Local variables are implemented at stack level

internally. There is no default value for local variables so local

variables should be declared and an initial value shouldbe assigned before the first use.

E l Of L l V i bl


26/366

Example Of Local Variable


27/366

Problem With Local VariableFollowing example uses agewithout initializing it, so it would give an error at the time of compilation.


28/366

Instance variables

Instance variables are variables within a classbut outside any method. These variables areinstantiated when the class is loaded. Instance

variables can be accessed from inside anymethod, constructor or blocks of thatparticular class.

Eg.

privateStringtitle;

privateStringauthor;

privateStringpublisher;


29/366

Rules For Instance Variable

Instance variables are declared in a class, but outside a

method, constructor or any block. When a space is allocated for an object in the heap a

slot for each instance variable value is created.

Instance variables are created when an object is

created with the use of the key word 'new' anddestroyed when the object is destroyed.

Instance variables hold values that must be referencedby more than one method, constructor or block, or

essential parts of an object.s state that must bepresent through out the class.

Instance variables can be declared in class level beforeor after use.


30/366

Rules For Instance Variable Access modifiers can be given for instance variables.

The instance variables are visible for all methods,constructors and block in the class. Normally it isrecommended to make these variables private (accesslevel).However visibility for subclasses can be given forthese variables with the use of access modifiers.

Instance variables have default values. For numbers thedefault value is 0, for Booleans it is false and for objectreferences it is null. Values can be assigned during thedeclaration or within the constructor.

Instance variables can be accessed directly by calling the

variable name inside the class. However within staticmethods and different class ( when instance variables aregiven accessibility) the should be called using the fullyqualified name .ObjectReference.VariableName.

E l Of I t V i bl


31/366

Example Of Instance Variable


32/366

Class variables

Class variables are variables declared with in a

class, outside any method, with the static

keyword.

Eg.

private static int count=0;


33/366

Rules For Class/Static Variable Class variables also known as static variables are

declared with the statickeyword in a class, but outsidea method, constructor or a block.

There would only be one copy of each class variableper class, regardless of how many objects are createdfrom it.

Static variables are rarely used other than beingdeclared as constants. Constants are variables that aredeclared as public/private, final and static. Constantvariables never change from their initial value.

Static variables are stored in static memory. It is rare touse static variables other than declared final and usedas either public or private constants.

Static variables are created when the program startsand destroyed when the program stops.


34/366

Rules For Class/Static Variable Visibility is similar to instance variables. However, most

static variables are declared public since they must beavailable for users of the class.

Default values are same as instance variables. For numbersthe default value is 0, for Booleans it is false and for objectreferences it is null. Values can be assigned during thedeclaration or within the constructor. Additionally valuescan be assigned in special static initializer blocks.

Static variables can be accessed by calling with the classname . ClassName.VariableName.

When declaring class variables as public static final, then

variables names (constants) are all in upper case. If thestatic variables are not public and final the naming syntax isthe same as instance and local variables.

Example Of Class/Static Variable


35/366

Example Of Class/Static Variable


36/366

A class can have any number of methods to

access the value of various kind of methods.

Like Book Class can have

bookIssue()

addBook()

deleteBook()updateBook()

Source file declaration rules


37/366

Source file declaration rules There can be only one public class per source file.

A source file can have multiple non public classes.

The public class name should be the name of the source fileas well which should be appended by .javaat the end. Forexample : The class name is .public class Employee{}Thenthe source file should be as Employee.java.

If the class is defined inside a package, then the package

statement should be the first statement in the source file. If import statements are present then they must be written

between the package statement and the class declaration.If there are no package statements then the importstatement should be the first line in the source file.

Import and package statements will imply to all the classespresent in the source file. It is not possible to declaredifferent import and/or package statements to differentclasses in the source file.

Reference Data Types

Reference variables are created using defined

constructors of the classes. They are used toaccess objects. These variables are declared to beof a specific type that cannot be changed. Forexample, Employee, Puppy etc.

Class objects, and various type of array variablescome under reference data type.

Default value of any reference variable is null.

A reference variable can be used to refer to anyobject of the declared type or any compatibletype.

Example : Animal animal = new Animal("giraffe");

Java Modifier Types


46/366

Java Modifier Types

Modifiers are keywords that you add to those

definitions to change their meanings. The Java

language has a wide variety of modifiers,

including the following:

Java Access Modifiers

Non Access Modifiers

To use a modifier, you include its keyword in

the definition of a class, method, or variable.

The modifier precedes the rest of the

statement, as in the following examples (Italic

ones)
http://www.tutorialspoint.com/java/java_access_modifiers.htmhttp://www.tutorialspoint.com/java/java_nonaccess_modifiers.htmhttp://www.tutorialspoint.com/java/java_nonaccess_modifiers.htmhttp://www.tutorialspoint.com/java/java_access_modifiers.htm

Access Control Modifiers


49/366

Access Control Modifiers

Java provides a number of access modifiers toset access levels for classes, variables,methods and constructors. The four accesslevels are:

Default:-Visible to the package. No modifiersare needed.

Private:-Visible to the class only .

Public:-Visible to the world. Protected:-Visible to the package and all

subclasses.



50/366


Java provides a number of non-access modifiers

to achieve many other functionality. The staticmodifier for creating class methods and

variables

Thefinalmodifier for finalizing theimplementations of classes, methods, andvariables.

The abstractmodifier for creating abstract classes

and methods. The synchronizedand volatilemodifiers, which

are used for threads.

Naming convention


51/366

Naming convention

A naming convention is a rule to follow as you

decide what to name your identifiers (e.g. class,package,variable, method, etc.), but it is not

mandatory to follow that is why it is known as

convention not rule.

Advantage:

By using standard Java naming conventions they

make their code easier to read for themselves

and for other programmers. Readability of Java

code is important because it means less time is

spent trying to figure out what the code does.


52/366

Class Name should begin with uppercase letter and

be a noun e.g.String,System,Thread etc.

Interface Name should begin with uppercase letter andbe an adjective (whereever possible),

e.g.Runnable,ActionListener etc.

Method Name should begin with lowercase letter and

be a verb. e.g.main(),print{),println(),

actionPerformed() etc.

Variable Name should begin with lowercase letter e.g.

firstName,orderNumber etc.Package Name should be in lowercase letter, e.g.

java.lang.sql.util etc.

Constant Name should be in uppercase letter, e.g.

Method Overloading


53/366

Method Overloading

Method overloading means when two or more

methods have the same name but a differentsignature.

Signatureof a method is nothing but a combinationof its name and the sequence of its parameter

types.

Advantages of method overloading

It allows you to use the same name for a group of

methods that basically have the same purpose.Method overloading increases the readability of theprogram.

Method Overloading


54/366

Method Overloading

Different ways to overload the method

There are two ways to overload the method in Java

1. By changing number of arguments

2. By changing the data type

Note: In Java, Methood Overloading is not possible

by changing return type of the method.


55/366

onstructor


62/366

Constructor is a special type of method that is used

to initialize the state of an object/initialize a valueto instance variable.

Constructor is invoked at the time of object

creation. It constructs the values i.e. data for the

object that is why it is known as constructor.

Constructor is just like the instance method but it

does not have any explicit return type.

aracter st cs or u es or onstructor


63/366

1. Constructor name must be same as its class name

2. Constructor must have no explicit return type.3.Constructor can have arguments

4.Constructor Can be overloaded.

5.Constructor should be public but it can have otheraccess specifier too.

5.Constructor will automaticallyinvoke when you

create object of class using newkeyword.6.Constructor cannot be call explicitly.

7.Constructor cannot be inherited.

ypes onstructor


64/366

yp

There are two types of constructors:

1) default constructor (no-arg constructor)2) parameterized constructor

Remember Point:-

1)If you dont provide any constructor in your class

compiler will provide default constructor.2)moment add any constructor in class u will loose toget default constructor from compiler.

3)Your class should have default constructor in case ofInheritance

4)Same constructor can be call to other constructorusing this and derived class constructor using super

keyword


65/366

Static


66/366

Static

The static keyword is used in Java mainly for

memory management. We may apply statickeyword with variables, methods and blocks. The

static keyword belongs to the class rather than

instance of the class.

The static can be:

1.variable (also known as class variable)

2.method (also known as class method)3.block

Static Variable


67/366

Static Variable

If you declare any variable as static, it is known

static variable It is a variable which belongs to the class and not to

object instance.

The static variable can be used to refer the commonproperty of all objects (that is not unique for

each object) e.g. company name of

employees,college name of students etc.

The static variable gets memory only once in class

area at the time of class loading.

It can be initialize at the time of Object creation.

Static Variable


68/366

Static variables are initialized only once , at the startof the execution . These variables will be initialized

first, before the initialization of any instancevariables.

A single copyto be shared by all instances of the

class A static variable can be accessed directly by

the class name and doesnt need any object.

Syntax : ..

Static variable can be final to make constant.

Syntax: public static final doubleRATE_OF_INT=15.5;

Static Variable Memory Diagram

Static Method


70/366

If you apply static keyword with any method, it isknown as static method.

A static method belongs to the class rather thanobject of a class.

A static method can be invoked without the need

for creating an instance of a class. static method can access static data member and

can change the value of it.

It is a method which belongs to the class and not tothe object(instance)

A static method can access only static data. It cannot access non-static data (instance variables)

Static Method


71/366

A static method can callonlyother static

methods and cant call a non-static method from it.

A static method can be accessed directly by

the class nameand doesnt need any object but can

be call by object.

Syntax : .

A static method cannot refer to this or super

keywords in anyway.

main method is static , since it must be accessible

for an application to run , before any instantiation

takes place.

Static Block


72/366

The static block, is a block of statement inside a Java

class that will be executed when a class is first

loaded in to the JVM

class Test{

static {

//Code goes here

}

}A static block helps to initialize the static data

members, just like constructors help to initialize

instance members


73/366

Questions

Que)Can we execute a program without main()

method?

This reference in java


74/366

this keyword in Javais a special keyword which can

be used to represent current object or instance of

any class in Java.

this can also call constructor of same class in

Java and used to call overloaded constructor.

if used than it must be first statement in constructor

this() will call no argument constructor.

and this(parameter) will call one argumentconstructor with appropriate parameter.

this can be used to return object. this is a valid return

value.here is an example of using as return value.

"this" keyword can not be used in static context i.e.

inside static methods or static initializer block.

if use this inside static context you will get compilation

error as shown in below example:

Java - String Class


80/366

Strings, which are widely used in Java

programming, are a sequence of characters. In

the Java programming language, strings are

objects.

The Java platform provides the String class to

create and manipulate strings.

Creating Strings:

The most direct way to create a string is towrite:

String greeting = "Hello world!";

String greeting = "Hello world!";


81/366

g g g ;

Whenever it encounters a string literal in your

code, the compiler creates a String object withits value in this case, "Hello world!'.

As like any other object, you can create String

objects by using the new keyword and a

constructor.

The String class has eleven constructors that

allow you to provide the initial value of the

string using different sources


82/366

Note: The String class is immutable, so that once it is created a

String object cannot be changed. If there is a necessity to make

a lot of modifications to Strings of characters then you should

use String Buffer & String BuilderClasses.

Cont.

String Length:
http://www.tutorialspoint.com/java/java_string_buffer.htmhttp://www.tutorialspoint.com/java/java_string_buffer.htm


83/366

String Length:

Methods used to obtain information about an

object are known as accessor methods. Oneaccessor method that you can use with strings

is the length() method, which returns the

number of characters contained in the string

object.

String palindrome = "Dot saw I was Tod";

int len = palindrome.length();System.out.println( "String Length is : " + len );

o/p:- String Length is : 17

Concatenating Strings:


84/366

Concatenating Strings:

The String class includes a method for

concatenating two strings:1) method concat

2) + operator

1) string1.concat(string2);

2) "My name is ".concat("Zara");

3) "Hello," + " world" + "!"

char charAt(int index)

Returns the character at the specified index.

int compareTo(Object o)

Compares this String to another Object.

int compareTo(String anotherString)

Compares two strings lexicographically.

int compareToIgnoreCase(String str)Compares two strings lexicographically, ignoring case

differences.

String concat(String str)Concatenates the specified string to the end of this string.

boolean contentEquals(StringBuffer sb)

Returns true if and only if this String represents the same

93/366

Inheritance can be defined as the process where

one object acquires the properties of another.

Inheritance is a mechanism in which one object

acquires all the properties and behaviours of parent

object.

The idea behind inheritance is that you can create

new classes that are built upon existing classes.

When you inherit from an existing class, you reuse

(or inherit) methods and fields.

Inheritance represents the IS-A relationship.

extendskeyword is used to achieve inheritance.

Inheritance Example


94/366

Animal is the superclass of Mammal class.

Animal is the superclass of Reptile class.

Mammal and Reptile are subclasses of Animal class.

Dog is the subclass of both Mammal and Animal classes.

IS-A Relationship


95/366

Mammal IS-A Animal

Reptile IS-A Animal

Dog IS-A Mammal

Hence : Dog IS-A Animal as well

Types of Inheritance


98/366

There exists basically three types of inheritance.

Single Inheritance

Multilevel inheritance

Multiple inheritance

Hierarchical inheritance

In single inheritance, one class extends one class only.

In multilevel inheritance, the ladder of singleinheritance increases.

In multiple inheritance, one class directly extendsmore than one class.In hierarchical inheritanceone class is extended bymore than one class.

Single Inheritance
http://way2java.com/oops-concepts/inheritance/http://way2java.com/oops-concepts/inheritance/


99/366


100/366

Multilevel Inheritance


101/366

Multiple Inheritance


102/366

In multiple inheritance, one class extends multiple

classes. Java does not support multipleinheritancebut C++ supports. The above program

can be modified to illustrate multiple inheritance.

The following program does not work.class Aves { }

class Bird { }

class Parrot extends Aves, Bird { }

Note:-Java supports multiple inheritance partially

through interfaces.


103/366

Disadvantages of Inheritance


104/366

Both classes (super and subclasses) are tightly-

coupled. As they are tightly coupled (binded each other

strongly with extends keyword), they cannot work

independently of each other.

Changing the code in super class method also

affects the subclass functionality.

If super class method is deleted, the code may notwork as subclass may call the super class method

with super keyword. Now subclass method behaves

independently.-

Aggregation In Java


105/366

If a class have an entity reference, it is known as

Aggregation. Aggregation represents HAS-Arelationship

Consider a situation, Employee object contains

many informations such as id, name, emailld etc. It

contains one more object named address, which

contains its own informations such as city, state,

country, zipcode etc. as given below.

Aggregation In Java


106/366

class Employee{

int id;String name;

Address address;//Address is a class

}

In such case, Employee has an entity reference

address, so relationship is Employee HAS-A address.

Why use Aggregation?

Ans:-For Code Reusability.

When use Aggregation?


107/366

Code reuse is also best achieved by aggregation

when there is no is-a relationship.Inheritance should be used only if the relationship

is-a is maintained throughout the lifetime of the

objects involved; otherwise, aggregation is the best

choice.

OverridingI th i h t t lk d b t


108/366

In the previous chapter, we talked about super

classes and sub classes.

If a class inherits a method from its super class,

then there is a chance to override the method

provided that it is not marked final.

The benefit of overriding is: ability to define a

behavior that's specific to the subclass type which

means a subclass can implement a parent class

method based on its requirement.

In object-oriented terms, overriding means to

override the functionality of an existing method.


109/366

Rules for method overriding: The argument list should be exactly the same as


110/366

The argument list should be exactly the same as

that of the overridden method.

The return type should be the same or a subtype ofthe return type declared in the original overridden

method in the superclass.

The access level cannot be more restrictive than theoverridden method's access level. For example: if

the superclass method is declared public then the

overridding method in the sub class cannot beeither private or protected.

Instance methods can be overridden only if they are

inherited by the subclass

Rules for method overriding: A method declared final cannot be overridden.


111/366

A method declared final cannot be overridden.

A method declared static cannot be overridden but

can be re-declared.

If a method cannot be inherited, then it cannot be

overridden.

A subclass within the same package as the

instance's superclass can override any superclass

method that is not declared private or final.

A subclass in a different package can only overridethe non-final methods declared public or protected.

Rules for method overriding:


112/366

An overriding method can throw any uncheck

exceptions, regardless of whether the overridden

method throws exceptions or not.

However the overriding method should not throw

checked exceptions that are new or broader than

the ones declared by the overridden method. The

overriding method can throw narrower or fewer

exceptions than the overridden method.

Constructors cannot be overridden.


113/366

Compare Overloading and Overriding


114/366

Method Overloading Method Overriding

Method overloading is used toincrease the readability of the

program.

Method overriding is used toprovide the specific

implementation

of the method that is already

provided by its super class.

method overlaoding is performed

within a class.

Method overriding occurs in two

classes that have IS-A

relationship.

In case of method overloading

parameter must be different.

In case of method overriding

parameter must be same.


115/366


116/366

Covariant Return TypeTh i t t t ifi th t th t


117/366

The covariant return type specifies that the return

type may vary in the same direction as the subclass.

Before Java5, it was not possible to override any

method by changing the return type.

But now, since Java5,it is possible to override

method by changing the return type if subclass

overrides any method whose return type is Non-

Primitive but it changes its return type to subclass

type.

Let's take a simple example:


118/366

super keywordTh i f i bl th t i d t f


119/366

The super is a reference variable that is used to referimmediate parent class object.

Whenever you create the instance of subclass, aninstance of parent class is created implicitely because itis referred by super reference variable.

Usage of super Keyword:-1. super is used to refer immediate parent classinstance variable.

2. super() is used to invoke immediate parent class

constructor.

3. super is used to invoke immediate parent classmethod.

Final Members: A way for Preventing

O idi f M b i S b l


121/366

121

Overriding of Members in Subclasses

All methods and variables can be overriddenby default in subclasses.

This can be prevented by declaring them as

final using the keyword final as a modifier.For example:

final int marks = 100;

final void display();

This ensures that functionality defined in thismethod cannot be altered any. Similarly, thevalue of a final variable cannot be altered.


122/366

Abstract Classes


123/366

123

When we define a class to be final, it cannot be

extended. In certain situation, we want toproperties of classes to be always extended andused. Such classes are called Abstract Classes.

AnAbstract class is a conceptual class.

An Abstractclass cannot be instantiatedobjectscannot be created.

Abstract classes provides a common root for agroup of classes, nicely tied together in a package:

Abstract Class Syntaxabstractclass ClassName


124/366

124

{

...

abstractType MethodName1();

Type Method2(){

// method body

}

} When a class contains one or more abstract methods, it should be

declared as abstract class.

The abstract methods of an abstract class must be defined in itssubclass.

We cannot declare abstract constructors or abstract static methods.

Abstract Class -Example


125/366

125

p

Shape is a abstract class.

Shape

Circle Rectangle

The Shape Abstract Class


126/366

126

Is the following statement valid?

Shape s = new Shape(); No. It is illegal because the Shape class is an

abstract class, which cannot be instantiated tocreate its objects.

public abstractclass Shape {

public abstract double area();public void move() { // non-abstract

method

// implementation

}

A class with one or more abstract methods isautomatically abstract and it cannot be instantiated.

A class declared abstract, even with no abstractmethods can not be instantiated.

A subclass of an abstract class can be instantiated if

it overrides all abstract methods by implementationthem.

A subclass that does not implement all of thesuperclass abstract methods is itself abstract; and it

cannot be instantiated.

Summary If you do not want (properties of) your class to be


129/366

129

y (p p ) yextended or inherited by other classes, define it as afinal class.

Java supports this is through the keyword final.

This is applied to classes.

You can also apply the final to only methods if you donot want anyone to override them.

If you want your class (properties/methods) to beextended by all those who want to use, then define it asan abstract class or define one or more of its methodsas abstract methods.

Java supports this is through the keyword abstract. This is applied to methods only.

Subclasses should implement abstract methods;otherwise, they cannot be instantiated.

Interface

Si h d d t di f


130/366

Since we have a good understanding of

the extendskeyword let us look into howthe implementskeyword is used to get the IS-A

relationship.

The implementskeyword is used by classes by

inherit from interfaces. Interfaces can never be

extended by the classes.

An interface in the Java programming language is

an abstract type that is used to specify

an interface that classes must implement.

Interface

I t f i t l tit i il t


131/366

Interface is a conceptual entity similar to a

Abstract class. Can contain only constants (final variables) and

abstract method (no implementation) - Different

from Abstract classes.

Use when a number of classes share a common

interface.

Each class should implement the interface.


132/366

Interface Example


133/366

speak()

Politician Priest

Speaker

speak() speak()

Lecturer

speak()

Interfaces Definition


134/366

Syntax (appears like abstract class):

Example:

interfaceInterfaceName {

// Constant/Final Variable Declaration

// Methods Declaration only method body}

interfaceSpeaker {public void speak( );

}

Implementing Interfaces


135/366

135

Interfaces are used like super-classes who

properties are inherited by classes. This is achievedby creating a class that implements the given

interface as follows:

class ClassName implements InterfaceName [, InterfaceName2, ]

{

// Body of Class

}

Implementing Interfaces Exampleclass Politician implements Speaker {


136/366

136

p p {

public void speak(){

System.out.println(

Talk politics);}

}

class Priest implements Speaker {

public void speak(){System.out.println(Religious Talks);

}

}class Lecturer implements Speaker {

public void speak(){System.out.println(Talks Object Oriented Design and

Programming!);

}

}

Extending Interfaces


137/366

137

Like classes, interfaces can also be extended. The new sub-

interface will inherit all the members of the superinterfacein the manner similar to classes. This is achieved by using

the keyword extendsas follows:

interfaceInterfaceName2 extendsInterfaceName1{

// Body of InterfaceName2

}

Inheritance and Interface

Implementation


138/366

Implementation

A general form of interface implementation:

This shows a class can extended another class whileimplementing one or more interfaces. It appears like amultiple inheritance (if we consider interfaces as specialkind of classes with certain restrictions or special features).

class ClassName extends SuperClassimplements

InterfaceName [, InterfaceName2, ]

{// Body of Class

}

Interface Cont..

Interfaces are declared using the interface keyword
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_keywordshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_keywords


139/366

Interfaces are declared using the interfacekeyword.

Interface may only contain method signatureandconstant declarations (variable declarations that are

declared to be both staticand final).

An interface may never contain method definitions. Interfaces cannot be instantiated, but rather are

implemented.

A class that implements an interface mustimplement all of the methods described in the

interface, or be an abstract class.

140/366

Object references in Java may be specified to be of

an interface type. One benefit of using interfaces is that they

simulate multiple inheritance.

All classes in Java must have exactly one base classbecause multiple inheritanceof classes is not

allowed.

A Java class may implementn number of interface. Interface may extends n number of interface.

Comparable Interface


143/366

1. Provides an interface for comparing any two objects of

same class.2. General Form :

public interface Comparable

{

int compareTo(Object other );

}Note : other parameter should be type casted to the class type

implementing Comparable interface

3. Collections. sort method can sort objects of any class that implements

comparable interface.

4. By implementing this interface , programmers can implement the logic

for comparing two objects of same class for less than, greater than or

equal to.

public interface Comparable

{

int compareTo( other );

}

Examples for Implementation

class BOX Implements Comparable

{

public int compareTo(Object other)

{

BOX box = (BOX) other;

......Logic for comparison .}

Method int compareTo(Object obj) needs tobe included in the base class itself.

We can include only single ordering logic.

Different order requires logic to be includedand requires changes in the base class itself.

Each type we need different order we need to

change the code itself.

Allows two objects to compare explicitly.

Syntax :

public interface Comparator{

int compare(Object O1, Object O2);

}

public interface Comparator

{int compare(T O1, T O2);

}

Does not require change in the base class.

We can define as many comparator classes for the base class.

Each Comparator class implements Comparator interface and providesdifferent logic for comparisons of objects.

But as we are passing both parameters explicitly, we have to type castboth Object types to their base type before implementing the logic ORUse the second form

Converting a Class To an Interface Type

1. Interface acts as a super class for the implementation classes.

2. A reference variable belonging to type interface can point to

any of the object of the classes implementing the interface.
