Java in a Nutshell

Benot Garbinato

Goals of this lesson


To remind you about: object-oriented programming (OOP) the Java language & platform

Java in a Nutshell Benot Garbinato

Object-Oriented Programming
Any object-oriented Programming language should feature:
encapsulation inheritance polymorphism

Java is such an object-oriented programming language


Java in a Nutshell Benot Garbinato

Encapsulation (1)
Encapsulation is about distinguishing specification from implementations The specification expresses what all objects of some type are expected to do An implementation expresses how some objects of that type are doing it
Java in a Nutshell Benot Garbinato

Encapsulation (2)
In Java, a class defines both a specification (type) and an implementation of that specification In Java, an interface defines a pure specification It it thus impossible to instantiate (create an instance) 0f an interface One or more Java classes can implement a given interface
Java in a Nutshell Benot Garbinato

Inheritance (1)
Types and subtypes express specification relationships, i.e., relevant design relationships Classes and subclasses express implementation relationships and are irrelevant at the design level In Java, a class inheritance relationship defines both a subtype and a subclass relationship In Java, an interface inheritance relationship is merely a synonym of subtype relationship
Java in a Nutshell Benot Garbinato

Inheritance (2)
class inheritance ! subtyping " subclassing

interface inheritance ! subtyping

Java in a Nutshell Benot Garbinato

Polymorphism (1)
Substitution Principle:
An object of some subtype of type T can be used wherever an object of type T is required
Vehicle v1 = new Vehicle(); Vehicle v2 = new Car(); Vehicle v3 = new Bicycle(); ... myScreen.drawInColor(v1); myScreen.drawInColor(v2); myScreen.drawInColor(v3); ...
Java in a Nutshell Benot Garbinato

Polymorphism (2)
Polymorphic variables can store objects of varying types The declared type of a variable is its static type The type of the object a variable refers is its dynamic type The Java compiler checks for static-type violations The Java runtime checks for dynamic-type violations
Car c = new Car(); Vehicle v = new Car();
Java in a Nutshell Benot Garbinato

what is the type of c and v ?

Polymorphism (3)
Methods calls are also said to be polymorphic, meaning that the dynamic type of the variable rather than its static type determines the method to be called The method of the subclass is said to override the method of the superclass
class Vehicle { void print(){ System.out.println(I am a vehicle);} } class Bicycle extends Vehicle {} class Car extends Vehicle { void print(){ System.out.println(I am a car);} }

Vehicle v1 = new Vehicle(); Vehicle v2 = new Bicycle(); Vehicle v3 = new Car(); v1.print(); v2.print(); v3.print();

what gets printed?

Polymorphism (4)
Vehicle v1
instance of

Vehicle
void print(){...}

:Vehicle v1.print(); Vehicle v2


instance of

Bicycle

Vehicle
void print(){...}

:Bicycle v2.print(); Vehicle v3


instance of

Car
void print(){...}

Vehicle
void print(){...}

:Car v3.print();

A simple example (1)


public interface MouseListener { public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e); // Invoked when the mouse has been clicked on a component. public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent e); // Invoked when the mouse enters a component. public void mouseExited(MouseEvent e); // Invoked when the mouse exits a component. public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e); // Invoked when a mouse button has been pressed on a component. public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent e); // Invoked when a mouse button has been released on a component.

import java.applet.Applet; import java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; public class Spot extends Applet implements MouseListener { private java.awt.Point clickPoint = null; private static final int RADIUS = 7; public void init() { addMouseListener(this); } public void paint(Graphics g) { g.drawRect(0, 0, getSize().width - 1, getSize().height - 1); if (clickPoint != null) g.fillOval(clickPoint.x - RADIUS, clickPoint.y - RADIUS, RADIUS * 2, RADIUS * 2); } public void mousePressed(MouseEvent event) { clickPoint = event.getPoint(); repaint(); } public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent event) {} public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent event) {} public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent event) {} public void mouseExited(MouseEvent event) {}

Java as programming platform


The Java platform consists of... The specification of a programming language The specification of a rich collection of standard Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) The specification of a virtual machine (bytecodes) Various implementations, e.g., one from a Sun Microsystems (JavaSoft), but also others(IBM, BEA Virtual Machines, etc.)

Development process

Java Virtual Machine

Java in a Nutshell Benot Garbinato

Java Development Kit (JDK)


JDK is a compile-time environment that offers: a reference implementation of the Java language; a reference implementation of the core Java APIs; various development tools, e.g., javadoc, javah, etc. JDK is also a runtime environment that offers: a reference implementation of the Java virtual machine with: incremental garbage collection, green & native threads, just-in-time compilation, etc.
