Differences between C & CPP & JAVA:-

C-lang Cpp-lang Java –lang
#include<stdio.h> #include<iostream.h> Import java.lang.System;
Void main() Void main() Import java.lang.String;
{ Printf(“hi ratan”); { Cout<<“hello ratan”; Class Test
} } { Public static void main (String [] args)
{System.out.println (“hi java”);
}
}

Implementation languages: implementation languages: implementation languages

COBOL,FORTRAN,BCPL, B… c ,ada,ALGOL68….. C,CPP,ObjectiveC…
In c-lang the predefined cpp language the predefined In java predefined support is
support is available in the is maintained in the form of available in the form of
form of header files. header files. packages.
Ex:- stdio.h , conio.h Ex:- iostream.h Ex: java.lang, java.io,java.awt
The header files contain The packages contains

In above first example we are In above first example we are
using printf predefined in above exampe we are using
using cout predefined
function that is present in two classes(String,System) these
function that is present in
stdio.h header file hence stdio.h header file hence classes are present in java.lang
must include that header file must include that header file package must import it by using
by using #include statement. by using #include statement. import keyword.
Ex:#include<stdio.h> Ex:#include<stdio.h> a) Import java.lang.*; all lasses
b)Import java.lang.System; required
In C lang program execution Import java.lang.String; classes

In C lang program execution
In above two approachaes 2nd good

JAVA Features :-(buzz words)

1. Simple 7. Secure
2. Object Oriented 8. Dynamic
3. Platform Independent 9. Distributed
4. Architectural Neutral 10. Multithread
5. Portable 11. Interpretive
6. Robust 12. High Performance
1. Simple:-
Java is a simple programming language because,
 Java technology has eliminated all the difficult and confusion oriented concepts
like pointers, multiple inheritance in the java language.
 Java uses c,cpp syntaxes mainly hence who knows C,CPP for that java is simple
language.
2. Object Oriented:-
 Java is object oriented technology because it is representing total data of the class in
the form of object.
 The languages which are support object,class,Inheritance,Polymorphism,
Encapsulation,Abstraction those languages are called Object oriented.
3. Platform Independent :-
When we compile the application by using one operating system (windows) that Compiled file
can execute only on the same operating system(windows) this behavior is called platform dependency.
Example :- C,CPP …etc
When we compile the application by using one operating system (windows) that Compiled file
can execute in all operating systems(Windows,Linux,Mac…etc) this behavior is called platform
independency.
Example :- java,Ruby,Scala,PHP …etc
9|Page
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
4. Architectural Neutral:-
Java tech applications compiled in one Architecture/hardware (RAM, Hard Disk) and that
Compiled program runs on any architecture (hardware) is called Architectural Neutral.
5. Portable:-
In Java the applications are compiled and executed in any OS (operating system) and
any Architecture (hardware) hence we can say java is a portable language.
6. Robust:-
Any technology good at two main areas that technology is robust technology.
a. Exception Handling
b. Memory Allocation
Java is providing predefined support to handle the exceptions.
Java provides Garbage collector to support memory management.
7. Secure:-
 To provide implicit security Java provides one component inside JVM called Security
Manager.
 To provide explicit security for the Java applications we are having very good predefined
library in the form of java.security package.
8. Dynamic:-
Java is dynamic technology it follows dynamic memory allocation (at runtime the
memory is allocated).
9. Distributed:-
By using java it is possible to develop distributed applications & to develop distributed
applications java uses RMI,EJB…etc
10. Multithreaded: -
 Thread is a light weight process and a small task in large program.
 In java it is possible to create user thread & it possible to execute simultaneously is called
multithreading.
 The main advantage of multithreading is it shares the same memory & threads are
important at multimedia, gaming, web application.
11. High Performance:-
If any technology having features like Robust, Security, Platform Independent, Dynamic and
so on then that technology is high performance.
Types of java applications:-
1. Standalone applications:
 It is also known as window based applications or desktop applications.
 This type of applications must install in every machine like media player, antivirus …etc
 By using AWT & Swings we are developing these type of applications.
 This type of application does not required client-server architecture.
10 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
2. Web applications:
a. The applications which are executed at server side those applications are called web
applications like Gmail, facebook ,yahoo…etc .
b. All applications present in internet those are called web-applications.
c. The web applications required client-server architecture.
i. Client : who sends the request.
ii. Server : it contains application & it process the app & it will generate response.
iii. Database : used to store the data.
d. To develop the web applications we are using servlets ,structs ,spring…etc
3. Enterprise applications:-
 It is a business application & most of the people use the term it I big business application.
 Enterprise applications are used to satisfy the needs of an organization rather than
individual users. Such organizations are business, schools, government …etc
 An application designed for corporate use is called enterprise application.
 An application in distributed in nature such as banking applications.
 All j2ee & EJB is used to create enterprise application.
4. Mobile applications:-
 The applications which are design for mobile platform are called mobile applications.
 We are developing mobile applications by sing android,IOS,j2me…etc
 There are three types of mobile applications
o Web-application (gmai l ,online shopping,oracle …etc)
o Native (run on device without internet or browser)ex:phonecall,calculator,alaram,games
These are install from application store& to run these apps internet not required.
o Hybrid (required internet data to launch) ex:whats up,facebook,LinkedIn…etc
These are installed form app store but to run this application internet data required.
5. Distributed applications:-
Software that executes on two or more computers in a network. In a client-server environment.
Application logic is divided into components according to function.
Ex : aircraft control systems ,industrial control systems, network applications…etc
Types of software :
The set of instructions that makes the computer system do something.
1) Application software
The program that allows the user to perform particular task.
Ex: business apps, entertainment apps,ms-office…etc
2) System software
The programs that allow the hardware to run properly.
Ex: operating system, device drivers…etc

Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Install the software and set the path :-

1) Download the software.
2) Install the java software in your machine.
3) Set the environmental variable.
Download the software:-
 Download the software from internet based on your operating system & processor
because the software is different from operating system to operating system &
processor to processor.
Open the Google site type the jdk8 download as shown below.
After clicking above link we will get below window then accept license agreement by clinking radio
button then choose the software based on your operating system and processor to download.
For 32-bit operating system please click on Windows x86

For 64-bit operating system please click on Windowsx64
Install the java software in your machine:-
 Install the java software just like media players in your machine.
 After installing the software the installation java folder is available in the fallowing
location by default.(but it possible to change the location at the time of installation).
Local Disk c: --->program Files--->java --->jdk(java development kit),jre(java runtime nvironment)
After installing To check whether the java is installed in your system or not open the command prompt
type javac command.
Process to open command prompt: Start --->run---->open:cmd---->ok
C:\Users\RATAN>javac
12 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Whenever we are getting above information then decide in our system java is installed
but the java is not working.
Why java is not working Reason:-
C:\Users\RATAN>javac
Whenever we are typing javac command on the command prompt operating system will
pickup javac command search for that command,
a) in the internal operating system calls but javac is not available in the internal system calls list.
b) If it not available in internal system calls list then immediately it won’t raise any error, it will
search in environmental variables
In above two cases if the javac command is not available then operating system will raise error
message “javac is not recognized as an internal or external command”
To overcome above problem to make eligible javac command operating system set
environmental variables.
The location of javac command is : C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0\bin
Right click on mycomputer --->properties----->Advanced system setting--->Environment Variables --
User variables--->new----> variable name : path
Variable value : C:\programfiles\java\jdk1.6.0_11\bin;
----->ok---->ok
Now the java is working in your system to check open the new command prompt & type javac
command then we will get list of commands then decide in your system java is working.
In your system or your friend system to check java is installed or not open the command prompt
& type javac command
a) If error message displayed java is not working.('javac' is not recognized as an internal or external command)
b) If list of commands are displayed then decide java is working properly.

Java coding conventions:-

Classes:-
 Class name start with upper case letter and every inner word starts with upper case letter.
 This convention is also known as camel case convention.
 The class name should be nouns.
Ex:- String StringBuffer InputStreamReader ……etc
Interfaces :-
 Interface name starts with upper case and every inner word starts with upper case letter.
 This convention is also known as camel case convention.
 The class name should be nouns.
Ex: Serializable Cloneable RandomAccess
Methods :-
 Method name starts with lower case letter and every inner word starts with upper case letter.
 This convention is also known as mixed case convention
 Method name should be verbs.
Ex:- post() charAt() toUpperCase() compareToIgnoreCase()
Variables:-
 Variable name starts with lower case letter and every inner word starts with upper case letter.
 This convention is also known as mixed case convention.
Ex :- out in pageContext
Package :-
 Package name is always must written in lower case letters.
Ex :- java.lang java.util java.io …etc
Constants:-
 While declaring constants all the words are uppercase letters .
Ex: MAX_PRIORITY MIN_PRIORITY NORM_PRIORITY
NOTE:- The coding standards are mandatory for predefined library & optional for user defined library
but as a java developer it is recommended to fallow the coding standards for user defined library also.

Steps to Design a First Application:-

Step-1:- Select an Editor.
Step-2:- Write the application.
Step-3:- Save the application.
Step-4:- Compilation Process.
Step-5:- Execution process.
Step1:- Select an Editor

Editor is a tool or software it will provide very good environment to develop java application.
Ex :- Notepad, Notepad++,edit Plus…..etc
IDE:- ( Integrated development Environment )
IDE is providing very good environment to develop the application.
Ex:- Eclipse,MyEclipse,Netbeans,JDeveloper….etc
IDE is a real-time standard but don’t use IDE to develop core java applications because 75%
work is done by IDE & remaining 25 % work is down by developer.
75% work of IDE is:-
 Automatic compilation.
 Automatic package import.
 It shows all the predefined methods of classes.
 Automatically generate try catch blocks and throws (Exception handling)
 It is showing the information about how to fix the bug………………………etc
Note :- Do the practical’s of core java only by using Edit Plus software.
Step 2:- Write a program.

 Write the java program based on the java API (Application Programming Interface) rule and
regulations .
Open editplus --->file ---->new ----->click on java (it display sample java application)
 Java is a case Sensitive Language so while writing the program you must take care about the
case (Alphabet symbols).
Example application:-
import java.lang.System;
import java.lang.String;
class Test //class declaration
{ //class starts
public static void main(String[] args) //program execution starting point
{ //main starts
System.out.println("hi Ratan"); //printing statement
} //main ends
}; //class ends
class A
{
};
class B
{
};
15 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
In above example String & System classes are present predefined java.lang package hence must
import that package by using import statement.
There are two approaches to import the classes in java,

1) Import all class of particular package.
a. Import java.lang.*; //it is importing all classes of java.lang package.
2) Import required classes
a. Import java.lang.System;
b. Import java.lang.String;
In above two approaches second approach is best approach because we are importing
application required classes.
Note: The source file is allows declaring multiple java classes.
Step3:- save the application.

 After writing the application must save the application by using (.java) extension.
 While saving the application must fallow two rules
o If the source file contains public class then public class name & Source filename must be
same (publicClassName.java). Otherwise compiler generate error message.
o if the source file does not contain public class then save the source file with any name
(anyName.java) like A.java , Ratan.java, Anu.java …….etc .
Note: - The source file allowed only one public class, if we are trying to declare multiple public classes
then compiler generate error message.
example 1:- invalid

//Ratan.java example 2:- valid example 3:- invalid
public class Test //Test.java //Test.java
{ }; public class Test public class Test
class A { }; { };
{ }; class A public class A
{ }; { };
Application location:-
D: (any disk)
|-->rattan (any folder)
|-->Sravya.java (your file name)
16 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Step-4:- Compilation process.

Compile the java application by using javac command.
Syntax:- Javac filename
Javac Test.java
Process of moving application saving location:-

C:\Users\hp> initial cursor location
C:\Users\hp>d: move to local disk D
D:\>cd ratan changing directory to ratan
D:\ratan>javac Sravya.java compilation process
Whenever we are performing compilation the compiler will check the syntax errors.
 If the application contains syntax errors then compiler will generate error message in the form of
compilation error.
 If the application does not contains syntax errors then compiler will generate .class
files.(conversion of .java to .class)
Note: - in java .class files generated by compiler at compilation time and .class file generation based
on number of classes present in source file.
If the source file contains 100 classes after compilation compiler generates 100 .class files
The compiler generate .class file and .class file contains byte code instructions it is intermediate code.
Process of compiling multiple files:-

D:
|-->ratan
|-->Sravya.java
|-->A.java
|-->B.java
|-->C.java
javac A.java one file is compiled(A.java)
javac B.java C.java two files are compiled
javac *.java all files are compiled
17 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Step-5:- Execution process.

Run /execute the java application by using java command.
Syntax:- Java class-name
Java Test
Whenever you are executing particular class file then JVM perform fallowing actions.
 JVM wills loads corresponding .class file byte code into memory.
 After loading .class file JVM calls main method to start the execution process.
In above two cases if the class file or main method is not available then at runtime JVM will generate
error message.
If the main method is not available: “Main method not found in class A, please define the main method”.
If the .class is not available : “Could not find main class”.
Executing all generated .class files based on example given in second step:-
Test class ---> class is loaded & main is present
A class ---> class is loaded but main is not present
B class ---> class is loaded but main is not present
XXX class ---> XXX class is not present
D:\ratan>java Test
Hi Ratan
D:\ratan>java A
Error: Main method not found in class A, please define the main method as:
D:\ratan>java B
Error: Main method not found in class B, please define the main method as:
D:\ratan>java XXX
Error: Could not find or load main class XXX
Note 1: - compiler is translator it is translating .java file to .class where as JVM is also a translator
it is translating .class file to machine code.
Note 2:- Compiler understandable file format is .java file but JVM understandable file format is
.class file.
Note 3:- It is possible to compile multiple files at a time but it is possible to execute only one .class
file at a time.
Note 4:- The .java file contains high level language (English) but .class file contains byte code
instructions.
Note 5:- java is a platform independent language but JVM is platform dependent.

Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Conclusion 1:- Java contains 14 predefined packages but the default package in java is java.lang
class Test
{ public static void main(String[] args)
{ System.out.println("hi ratan");
}
}
Conclusion -2:-
The class contains main method is called Main class and java allows to declare multiple main
class in a single source file.
class Test1
{ System.out.println("Test1 World!");
}
}
class Test2
}
}
class Test3
}
}
D:\morn11>java Test1 D:\morn11>java Test2 D:\morn11>java Test3
Test1 World! Test2 World! Test3 World!
Conclusion -3:- The source file is allows to declare only one public class, if you are declaring morethan
one public class compiler generate error message.
public class Test
{ System.out.println("Hello World!");
}
}
public class A{ }
error: class A is public, should be declared in a file named A.java
conclusion-4 The below example compiled & executed but it is not recammanded because the class
name starting with lower case letters.
class test
{ System.out.println("Ratan World!");
}
}
G:\>java test
Ratan World!

Class Elements:-
Class Test{
1. variables int a = 10;
2. methods void add() {business logic }
3. constructors Test() {business logic }
4. instance blocks {business logic }
5. static blocks static {business logic }
}
Java Comments:-
 Comments are used to write the detailed description about application logics to understand the
logics easily.
 Comments are very important in real time because today we are developing the application but
that application maintained by some other person so to understand the logics by everyone writes
the comments.
 Comments are non-executable code these are ignored at compile time.
There are 3 types of comments.
1) Single line Comments:-
By using single line comments it is possible to write the description about our programming
logics within a single line & these comments are Starts with // (double slash) symbol.
Syntax:- //description
2) Multi line Comments:-
This comment is used to provide description about our program in more than one line &
these commands are start with /* & ends with */
Syntax: - /*----satement-1
----statement-2
*/
3) Documentation Comments:-
By using documentation comments it possible to prepare API(Application programming
interface) documents.(e will discuss later chapte)
Syntax: - /*
*statement-1
*statement-2
*/
Example:-
/*project name:-green project
team size:- 6
team lead:- ratan
*/
class Test //class declaration
{ //class starts
public static void main(String[] args) // execution starting point
{ //main starts
System.out.println("ratan"); //printing statement
}//main ends
};//class ends

Separators in java:-
Symbol name usage
() parentheses used to contains list of parameters & contains expression.
{} braces block of code for class, method, constructors & local scopes.
[] brackets used for array declaration.
; semicolon terminates statements.
, comma separate the variables declaration & chain statements in for.
. period used to separate package names from sub packages. And also
used for separate a variable,method from a reference type.
Print() vs Println ():-

Print():- used to print the statement in console and the control is present in the same line.
Example:- System.out.print(“Sravyainfotech”);
System.out.print(“core java”);
Output:-SravyaInfotechcorejava
Println():- used to print the statements in console but the control is there in next line.
Example:- System.out.println(“Sravyainfotech”);
System.out.println(“core java”);
Output: - Sravyainfotech
Core java

Java Tokens:-
 Smallest individual part of a java program is called Token.
 It is possible to provide any number of spaces in between two tokens.
Example:-
Class Test
{
Public static void main
( String[] args )
{ int a = 10 ;
System . out . println (
“java tokens”);
}
} Tokens are---------class , test , { , ” , [ …………….etc
Escape Sequences:-
A character preceded by a backslash (\) is an escape sequence and has special meaning to the compiler.
The following table shows the Java escape sequences
class Test
{ System.out.println("Hello \t World");
System.out.println("Hello\bWorld");
System.out.println("Hello\nWorld");
System.out.println("hi Hello\rWorld xxxx hi anu");
System.out.println("Hello \f World \f hi anu");
System.out.println("Hello World \'ratan\'");
System.out.println("Hello World \"Anu\"");
System.out.println("Hello\\World");
}
}

Java identifiers:-
Every name in java is called identifier such as,
 Class-name
 Method-name
 Variable-name
Rules to declare identifier:
1. An identifier contains group of Uppercase & lower case characters, numbers ,underscore & dollar
sign characters but not start with number.
int abc=10; ---> valid int _abc=30; ---> valid int $abc=40; ---> valid
int a-bc=50; --->not valid int 2abc=20; ---> Invalid int not/ok=100 --->invalid
2. Java identifiers are case sensitive of course java is case sensitive programming language. The
below three declarations are different & valid.
class Test
{ int NUMBER=10;
int number=10;
int Number=10;
};
3. The identifier should not duplicated & below example is invalid because it contains duplicate
variable name.
class Test
{ int a=10;
int a=20;
};
4. In the java applications it is possible to declare all the predefined class names & interfaces
names as a identifier but it is not recommended to use.
class Test
{ int String=10;
float Exception=10.2f;
System.out.println(String);
System.out.println(Exception);
}
};
5. It is not possible to use keywords as a identifiers.

class Test
{ int if=10;
int try=20;
};
6. There is no length limit for identifiers but is never recommended to take lengthy names because
it reduces readability of the code.

Java primitive Data Types:-

1. Data types are used to represent type of the variable & expressions.
2. Representing how much memory is allocated for variable.
3. Specifies range value of the variable.
There are 8 primitive data types in java

Data Type size(in bytes) Range default values
byte 1 -128 to 127 0
short 2 -32768 to 32767 0
int 4 -2147483648 to 2147483647 0
long 8 –9,223,372,036,854,775,808 to 9 ,223,372,036,854,775,807 0
float 4 -3.4e38 to 3.4e 0.0
double 8 -1.7e308 to 1.7e308 0.0
char 2 0 to 6553 single space
Boolean no-size no-range false
Byte :-
Size : 1-byte
MAX_VALUE : 127
MIN_VALUE : -128
Range : -128 to 127
Formula : -2n to 2n-1 -28 to 28-1
26 25 24 23 22 21 20
64+32+16+8+4+2=128
Note :-
 To represent numeric values (10,20,30…etc) use byte,short,int,long.
 To represent decimal values(floating point values 10.5,30.6…etc) use float,double.
 To represent character use char and take the character within single quotes.
 To represent true ,false use Boolean.
Except Boolean and char remaining all data types consider as a signed data types because we can
represent both +ve & -ve values.
Float vs double:-
Float will give 5 to 6 decimal places of accuracy but double gives 14 to 15 places of accuracy.
Float will fallow single precision but double will fallow double precision.
Syntax:- data-type name-of-variable = value/literal;
Ex:- int a=10;
Int ------ Data Type
a ------ variable name
= ------ assignment
10 ------ constant value
; ------ statement terminator

printing variables :-
int a=10;
System.out.println(a); //valid
System.out.println("a"); //invalid
System.out.println('a'); //invalid
User provided values are printed Default values(JVM assigned values)

int a = 10; int a;
System.out.println(a);//10 System.out.println(a);//0
boolean b=true; boolean b;
System.out.println(b);//true System.out.println(b);//false
char ch='a'; char ch;
System.out.println(ch);//a System.out.println(ch);//single space
double d=10.5; double d;
System.out.println(d);//10.5 System.out.println(d);//0.0
Example :-//Test.java
class Test
{ float f=10.5;
System.out.println(f);
double d=20.5;
System.out.println(d);
}
}
D:\ratan>javac Test.java
Test.java:3: error: possible loss of precision
float f=10.5;
required: float found: double
in above example decimal value(10.5) by default double value hence compiler
generating error message so to represent float value use f constant or perform type casting.
float f =10.5f; //using f constant (valid)
float f =(float)10.5; //using type casting (valid)
variable declarations:
int a=10; ----> integer variable
double d=10.5; ----> double variable
char ch='a'; ----> char variable
boolean b=true; ----> boolean variable
float f=10.5f; ----> float variable
String str=”ratan”; ----> String variable
Note: String is not a data type & it is a class present in java.lang package to represent group
of characters or character array enclosed with in double quotes.

java flow control Statements

There are three types of flow control statements in java
a. Selection Statements
b. Iteration statements
c. Transfer statements
1. Selection Statements
a. If
b. If-else
c. Switch
d. else-if
If syntax:-
if (condition)
{ true body;
}
else
{ false body;
}
 If statmenet is taking condition that condition must be Boolean condition. Otherwise compiler will
generate error message.
Example-1:- Normal example
class Test
{ int age=20;
if (age>22)
{ System.out.println("if body / true body");
}
else
{ System.out.println("else body/false body ");
}
}
}
Example -2:- For the if the condition it is possible to provide Boolean values.
class Test
{ if (true)
{ System.out.println("true body");
}
else
{ System.out.println("false body");
}
}}
27 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example-3:-in c-language 0-false & 1-true but these conventions are not allowed in java.
class Test
{ if (0)
}
else
}
}
}
Example-4:
class Test
{ int a=20;
if (a=10)
}
else
}
}
}
error: incompatible types: int cannot be converted to Boolean
Example-5:- The curly brases are options but without curly braces it is possible to take only one
statement that should not be a initialization.
class Test
{ if (true)
System.out.println("true body");
else
System.out.println("false body");
}
}
Case 1: valid Case 3:Invalid

If(true) If(true)
SOP(“hi ratan”); Int x=100;
Case 2: valid Case 4: valid

If(true); If(true)
{Int x=100;}
Note : In java semicolon is empty statement

Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Switch statement:-
 Switch statement is used to declare multiple selections
 Switch is taking the argument, the allowed arguments are
o Byte,short,int,char (primitives)
o Byte, Short,Integer,Character,enum (1.5 version)
o String (1.7 version).
 Inside the switch it is possible to declare more than one case but it is possible to declare only one
default.
 Based on the provided argument the matched case will be executed if the cases are not matched
default will be executed.
 While declaring switch statement braces are mandatory otherwise compiler will generate error
message.
Note : Float and double and long is not allowed for a switch argument because these are having too
large values.
Syntax:-
switch(argument)
{
case label1: statements;
break;
case label2 : statements;
break;
| |
| |
default : statements;
break;
}
Example-1: Normal input and normal output.

class Test
{ int a=10;
switch (a)
{ case 10:System.out.println("anushka");
break;
case 20:System.out.println("nazriya");
break;
case 30:System.out.println("samantha");
break;
default:System.out.println("ubanu");
break;
}
}
}
29 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example-2: Inside the switch the case labels must be unique; if we are declaring duplicate case labels
the compiler will raise compilation error “duplicate case label”.
class Test
{ int a=10;
switch (a)
{ case 10:System.out.println("anushka");
break;
case 10:System.out.println("nazriya");
break;
default:System.out.println("ubanu");
break;
}
}
}
Example-3: Inside the switch for the case labels & switch argument it is possible to provide
expressions (10+10+20 , 10*4 , 10/2).
class Test
{ int a=99;
switch (a+1)
{ case 10+20+70 :System.out.println("anushka");
break;
case 10+5 :System.out.println("nazriya");
break;
case 30/6 :System.out.println("samantha");
break;
default :System.out.println("ubanu");
break;
}
}
}
Example-4:- Inside the switch the case label must be constant values. If we are declaring variables
as a case labels the compiler will show compilation error “constant expression required”.
class Test
{ int a=10;
Int b=20;
switch (a)
{ case a:System.out.println("anushka"); break;
case b:System.out.println("nazriya"); break;
default:System.out.println("ubanu"); break;
}
}
}
30 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example 5: It is possible to declare final variables as a case label. Because the variables are replaced
with constants during compilation.
class Test
{ final int a=10;
switch (a)
{ case a:System.out.println("anushka"); break;
default:System.out.println("ubanu"); break;
}
}
}
Example-6:- inside the switch the default is optional.

class Test
{ int a=10;
switch (a)
{ case 10:System.out.println("10");
break;
}
}
};
Example 7:- Inside the switch cases are optional part.

class Test
{ int a=10;
switch (a)
{ default: System.out.println("default");
break;
}
}
};
Example 8:- inside the switch both cases and default Is optional.
public class Test
{ int a=10;
switch(a)
{
}
}
}
31 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example -9:- Inside the switch independent statements are not allowed. If we are declaring the
statements that statement must be inside the case or default.
public class Test
{ int x=10;
switch(x)
{ System.out.println("Hello World");
}
}
}
Example-10:- internal conversion for unicode. Unicode values a-97 A-65

class Test
{ int a=65;
switch (a)
{ case 66:System.out.println("10"); break;
case 'A':System.out.println("20"); break;
default: System.out.println("default"); break;
}
}
};
Example -11: internal conversion of unicodes.
class Test
{ char ch='d';
switch (ch)
{ case 100:System.out.println("10"); break;
case 'A':System.out.println("20"); break;
default: System.out.println("default"); break;
}
}
};
Example-12:- inside the switch the case label must match with provided argument data type
otherwise compiler will raise compilation error “incompatible types”.
class Test
{ char ch='a';
switch (ch)
{ case "aaa" :System.out.println("samantha"); break;
case 65 :System.out.println("anu"); break;
case 'a' :System.out.println("ubanu"); break;
}
}
}
32 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example -13:-
 Inside the switch statement beak is optional.
 If we are not providing break statement then from the matched case onwards up to break
statement will be executed, if there is no break statement then end of the switch will be
executed. This situation is called as fall though inside the switch case.
class Test
{ int a=10;
switch (a)
case 20:System.out.println("20");
break;
default: System.out.println("default");
break;
}
}
};
Example -14: The advantage of fall through is used to executed common actions for multiple cases.
class Test
{ int a=2;
switch (a)
{ case 1:
case 2:
case 3:System.out.println("Q-1");
break;
case 4:
case 5:
case 6:System.out.println("Q-2");
break;
}
}
};
Example-15:- Inside the switch it is possible to declare the default statement at starting or middle or
end of the switch.
class Test
{ int a=100;
switch (a)
{ default: System.out.println("default");
}
}
};
33 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example -16:- The below example compiled and executed in 1.7 version & above because switch is
taking String argument from 1.7 version.
class Sravya
{ String str = “aaa”;
switch (str)
{ case "aaa" : System.out.println("Hai");
case "bbb" : System.out.println("Hello");
default : System.out.println("what");
}
}
}
Example -17:- Inside switch the case labels must be within the range of provided argument data type
otherwise compiler will raise compilation error “possible loss of precision”.
class Test
{ byte b=126;
switch (b)
default:System.out.println("default");
}
}
};
Else-if lader:-
class Test
{ int a=20;
if (a==10)
{ System.out.println("ten");
}
else if (a==20)
{ System.out.println("twenty");
}
else if (a==30)
{ System.out.println("thirty");
}
else
{ System.out.println("default condition");
}
}
};

Iteration Statements:-
By using iteration statements we are able to execute group of statements repeatedly or more
number of times.
1) For
2) For-each
3) while
4) do-while
for syntax:-
for (initialization ;condition ;increment/decrement )
{ Body;
}
Flow of execution in for loop:-

Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example-2:- In the initialization part it is possible to take any number of System.out.println(“ratna”)

statements and each and every statement is separated by comma(,) .
class Test
{ int i=0;
for (System.out.println("Aruna"), System.out.println("Ratan");i<10;i++)
{ System.out.println("Rattaiah");
}
}
}
Example 3:- compilation error more than one
initialization not possible. Ex :-declaring two variables are possible.
class Test class Test
{ public static void main(String[] args) { public static void main(String[] args)
{ for (int i=0,double j=10.8;i<10;i++) { for (int i=0,j=0;i<10;i++)
{ System.out.println("Rattaiah"); { System.out.println("Rattaiah");
} }
} }
} }
Conditional part of for loop:-

Example 1:- Inside for loop conditional part is optional if we are not providing condition at the time
of compilation compiler will provide true value.
for (int i=0; ;i++)
}
Increment/decrement:-
Example-1:- Inside the for loop increment/decrement part is optional.
class Test
{ for (int i=0; i<10 ; )
}
}
}
Example 2:- in the increment/decrement it is possible to take the any number of SOP() statements
and each and every statement is separated by comma(,).
for (int i=0;i<10;System.out.println("aruna"),System.out.println("sravya"))
i++;
}
Note : Inside the for loop each and every part is optional.
for(;;)------------represent infinite loop because the condition is always true.
36 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Unreachable statement:-
Ex:- compiler is unable to identify the ex:- compiler able to identify the unreachable
unreachable statement. Statement.
{ for (int i=1;i>0;i++) { for (int i=1;true;i++)
{ System.out.println("ratan"); { System.out.println("ratan");
} }
System.out.println("rest of the code"); System.out.println("rest of the code");
} }
} }
Note:- When you provide the condition even though that condition is represent infinite loop compiler
is unable to find unreachable statements,(because that compiler is thinking that condition may fail).
When you provide Boolean value as a condition then compiler is identifying unreachable
statement because compiler knows that condition never change.
While loop:-
Syntax:- while (condition) //condition must be Boolean & mandatory.
{ body;
}
Example-1 :-
class Test
{ int i=0;
while (i<10)
{ System.out.println("rattaiah");
i++;
}
}
}
Example-2 :- compilation error unreachable statement.
class Test
{ int i=0;
while (false)
{ System.out.println("rattaiah"); //unreachable statement
i++;
}
}
}
37 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Do-While:-
 If we want to execute the loop body at least one time them we should go for do-while statement.
 In do-while first body will be executed then only condition will be checked.
 In the do-while the while must be ends with semicolon otherwise compilation error.
Syntax:- do
{ //body of loop
} while (condition);
Example-1:-
class Test
public static void main(String[] args)
{ int i=0;
do
i++;
}while (i<10);
}
}
Example-2 :- unreachable statement

class Test
{ int i=0;
do
}while (true);
System.out.println("Sravyainfotech"); //unreachable statement
}
}
Example-3 :-
class Test
{ int i=0;
do
}while (false);
System.out.println("Sravyainfotech");
}
}
38 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
For-each loop:- (introduced in 1.5 version)

 For loop is used to print the data & it is possible to apply conditions.
 For-each loop is used to print the data but it is not possible to apply the conditions. To print the data
starting element to ending element without conditions use for-each loop.
class Test
{ int[] a={10,20,30,40};
//printing data by uisng for-loop
for (int i=0;i<a.length;i++)
{ System.out.println(a[i]);
}
//printing data by using for-each lopp
for (int aa: a)
{ System.out.println(aa);
}
}
};
Iterator vs Iterable:-
 The target elements in for-each loop should be iterable. And it is interface present in java.lang
package.
 If an object is iterable that class should implements Iterable interface.
 Iterator is cursor we will discussed in Collections framework.
39 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Transfer statements:-
By using transfer statements we are able to transfer the flow of execution from one position to
another position.
o break
o continue
o return
o try
o goto
break:-
Break is used to stop the execution. And is possible to use the break statement only two areas.
a. Inside the switch statement.
b. Inside the loops.
Example-1 :- break means stop the execution come out of loop.

class Test
{ for (int i=0;i<10;i++)
{ if (i==5)
break;
System.out.println(i);
}
}
}
Example-2 :- if we are using break outside switch or loops the compiler will raise compilation error
“break outside switch or loop”
class Test
{ if (true)
{ System.out.println("ratan");
break;
System.out.println("nandu");
}
}
};
Continue: skip the current iteration and it is continue the rest of the iterations normally.
class Test
{ for (int i=0;i<10;i++)
{ if (i==5)
continue;
}
}
}

Java Variables:-
 Variables are used to store the constant values by using these values we are achieving project
requirements.
 Variables are also known as fields of a class or properties of a class.
 All variables must have a type. You can use primitive types such as int, float, boolean,
etc. Or array type or class type or enum type or interface type.
 Variable declaration is composed of three components in order,
o Zero or more modifiers.
o The variable type.
o The variable name.
Example : public final int x=100;
public int a=10;

public ----> modifier (specify permission)
int ----> data type (represent type of the variable)
a ----> variable name
10 ----> constant value or literal;
; ----> statement terminator
There are three types of variables in java
1. Local variables.
2. Instance variables.
3. Static variables.
Local variables:-
 The variables which are declare inside a method or constructor or blocks those variables are
called local variables.
class Test
{ public static void main(String[] args) //execution starts from main method
{ int a=10; //local variables
int b=20;
System.out.println(a);
System.out.println(b);
}
}
 It is possible to access local variables only inside the method or constructor or blocks only, it is
not possible to access outside of method or constructor or blocks.
void add()
{ int a=10; //local variable
System.out.println(a); //possible
}
void mul()
{ System.out.println(a); //not-possible
}
 For the local variables memory allocated when method starts and memory released when
method completed.
 The local variables are stored in stack memory.
41 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Instance variables (non-static variables):-

 The variables which are declare inside a class but outside of methods those variables are called
instance variables.
 The scope (permission) of instance variable is inside the class having global visibility.
 For the instance variables memory allocated during object creation & memory released when object
is destroyed.
 Instance variables are stored in heap memory.
Areas of java language:-

There are two types areas in java.
1) Instance Area.
2) Static Area.
Instance Area:- Static Area:-
void m1() //instance method Static void m1() //static method
{ Logics here //instance area { Logics here //static area
} }
Instance variable accessing:-
(Instance variables & methods)
Directly can access (Access by using

Object)
Instance Area Static Area

Example:-
class Test
{ //instance variables
int a=10;
int b=20;
//static method
{ //Static Area
Test t=new Test();
System.out.println(t.a);
System.out.println(t.b);
t.m1(); //instance method calling
}
// instance method
void m1() //user defined method must called by user inside main method
{ //instance area
}//main ends
};//class ends
42 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Static variables (class variables):-

 The variables which are declared inside the class but outside of the methods with static modifier
those variables are called static variables.
 Scope of the static variables with in the class global visibility.
 Static variables memory allocated during .class file loading and memory released at .class file
unloading time.
 Static variables are stored in non-heap memory.
Static variables & methods accessing:-
(Static variables& static methods)
Access by using class name
Static area instance area

class Test
{ //static variables
static int a=1000;
static int b=2000;
public static void main(String[] args) //static method
{ System.out.println(Test.a);
System.out.println(Test.b);
Test t = new Test();
}
//instance method
void m1() //user defined method called by user inside main method
}
};
Static variables calling: - We are able to access the static members inside the static area in three ways.
 Direct accessing.
 By using class name.
 By using reference variable.
In above three approaches second approach is best approach .
class Test
{ static int x=100; //static variable
{ System.out.println(a); //1-way(directly possible)
System.out.println(Test.a); //2-way(By using class name)
Test t=new Test();
System.out.println(t.a); //3-way(By using reference variable)
}
};
43 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example: - When we create object inside method that object is destroyed when method completed, if
any other method required object then create the object inside that method.
class Test
{ //instance variable
int a=10;
int b=20;
static void m1()
{ Test t = new Test();
}
static void m2()
}
{ Test.m1(); //static method calling
Test.m2(); //static method calling
}
};
Example:-
class Test
{ int a=10;
int b=20; // instance variables
static int c=30; static int d=40; //static variables
void m1() //instance method
{ System.out.println(a);
System.out.println(Test.c);
System.out.println(Test.d);
}
static void m2() //static method
System.out.println(Test.c);
System.out.println(Test.d);
}
Test.m2(); //static method calling
}

Variables VS default values:-

Case 1:- for the instance variables JVM will assign default values.
class Test
{ int a;
boolean b;
{ Test t=new Test();
}
};
Case 2:- for the static variables JVM will assign default values.
class Test
{ static int a;
static float b;
}
};
Case 3:-
 For the instance and static variables JVM will assign default values but for the local variables the
JVM won’t provide default values.
 In java before using local variables must initialize some values to the variables otherwise
compiler will raise compilation error “variable a might not have been initialized”.
class Test
{ int a;
int b;
}
};
D:\>javac Test.java
Test.java:6: variable a might not have been initialized
Q) The below example valid or Invalid?

class Test
{ int a;
}
};

Class Vs Object:-
 Class is a logical entity it contains logics whereas object is physical entity it is representing
memory.
 Class is blue print it decides object creation without class we are unable to create object.
 Based on single class (blue print) it is possible to create multiple objects but every object
occupies memory.
 We are declaring the class by using class keyword but we are creating object by using new
keyword.
 We will discuss object creation in detailed in constructor concept.
Instance vs. Static variables:-

 In case of instance variables the JVM will create separate memory for each and every object it
means separate instance variable value for each and every object.
 In case of static variables irrespective of object creation per class single memory is allocated,
here all objects of that class using single copy.
Example :-
class Test
{ int a=10; //instance variable
static int b=20; //static variable
System.out.println(t.a); //10
System.out.println(t.b); //20
t.a=111; t.b=222;
System.out.println(t.a); //111
System.out.println(t.b); //222
Test t1 = new Test(); //10 222
System.out.println(t1.a); //10
System.out.println(t1.b); //222
t1.b=444;
Test t2 = new Test(); //10 444
System.out.println(t2.b); //444
}
}
Instance variable vs static variable :-
46 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Different ways to initialize the variables :-

class Test
{ int s=10;
int a,b,c;
int x=10,y,z;
int i=10,j=20,k;
int p=10,q=20,r=30;
System.out.println(t.s);
System.out.println(t.a+" "+t.b+" "+t.c);
System.out.println(t.x+" "+t.y+" "+t.z);
System.out.println(t.i+" "+t.j+" "+t.k);
System.out.println(t.p+" "+t.q+" "+t.r);
}
}
Summary of variables:-
Characteristic Local variable instance variable static variables
where declared inside method or inside the class outside inside the class outside
Constructor or block. Of methods of methods .
Usage within the method inside the class. inside the class all
When memory allocated when method starts when object created when .class file loading
When memory destroyed when method ends. When object destroyed when .class unloading.
Initial values none, must initialize the value default values are default values are
before first use. Assigned by JVM. Assigned by JVM.
Relation with Object no way related to object. for every object one copy for all objects one
Of instance variable created copy is created.
It means memory. Single memory.
Accessing directly possible. By using object name. by using class name.

Test t = new Test(); System.out.println(Test.a);
Memory stored in stack memory. Stored in heap memory method area.

Java Methods (behaviors):-

 Inside the classes it is not possible to write the business logics directly hence inside the class declare
the method inside that method writes the logics of the application.
 Methods are used to write the business logics of the project.
 Coding convention: method name starts with lower case letter and every inner word starts with
uppercase letter(mixed case).
Example:- post() , charAt() , toUpperCase() , compareToIgnoreCase()……etc
There are two types of methods in java,

1. Instance method
2. Static method
 Inside the class it is possible to declare any number of instance & static methods based on the
developer requirement.
 It will improve the reusability of the code and we can optimize the code.
Note: - Whether it is an instance method or static method the methods are used to provide
business logics of the project.
Instance method :-
void m1() //instance method
{ //body //instance area
}
Note: - for the instance members memory is allocated during object creation hence
access the instance members by using object-name (reference-variable).
Method calling Syntax:-
Void m1() { logics here } //instance method
Objectname.instancemethod( ); //calling instance method
t.m1( );
static method:-
static void m1() //static method
{ //body //static area
}
Note: - for the static member’s memory allocated during .class file
loading hence access the static members by using class-name.
Method calling syntax:-
Static void m2() { logics here } //static method
Classname.staticmethod( ); // call static method by using class name
Test.m2( );
48 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Every method contains three parts.

1. Method declaration
2. Method implementation (logic)
3. Method calling
Example:- void m1() ------> method declaration
{ Body (Business logic); -----> method implementation
}
Test t = new Test(); t.m1(); ------> method calling
Method Syntax:-
[modifiers-list] return-Type Method-name (parameters list) throws Exception
Modifiers-list ------ represent access permissions. ---- [optional]
Return-type ------ functionality return value ---- [mandatory]
Method name ------ functionality name ----- [mandatory]
Parameter-list ------ input to functionality ---- [optional]
Throws Exception ------ representing exception handling --- [optional]
Example:- Public void m1(){ logics…}

Private int m2(int a,int b) { logics…}
Method Signature:-
Method-name & parameters list is called method signature.
Syntax:- Method-name(parameter-list)
Example:- m1(int a)
m1(int a,int b)
Example-1 :- instance & static methods without arguments.

 Instance methods are bounded with objects hence call the instance methods by using object
name(reference variable).
 Static methods are bounded with class hence access the static methods by using class-name.
class Test
{ void m1()
{ System.out.println("m1 instance method");
}
static void m2()
{ System.out.println("m2 static method");
}
t.m1(); //calling of instance method by using object-name
Test.m2(); //calling of static method by using class-name
}
}
49 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example-2:-instance & static methods with parameters.

 If the method is expecting parameters (inputs to functionality) then while calling that method
must pass the values to that parameters then only that method will be executed.
 While passing parameters, number of arguments & order of arguments important.
void m1(int a) -->t.m1(10); -->valid
void m3(int a,char ch,float f) -->t.m3(10,'a',10.6); -->invalid
void m4(int a,char ch,float f) -->t.m4(10,’a’,10.6f); -->valid
void m5(int a,char ch,float f) -->t.m3(10,'c'); -->invalid
class Test
{ void m1(int a,char ch) //local variables
System.out.println(ch);
}
static void m2(boolean b,double d)
{ System.out.println("m2 static method");
System.out.println(d);
}
t.m1(10,'a'); //calling of instance method by passing inputs
Test.m2(true,10.5); //calling of static method by passing inputs
}
}
Example-3 :- while calling methods it is possible to provide variables as a argument values.

class Test
{ void m1(int a,char ch,boolean b)
}
{ int x=100;
char ch='a';
boolean y=false;
t.m1(x,ch,y);
}
}
50 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example-4 :- For java methods it is possible to provide Objects as a parameters(in real time project).
class X{}
class Emp{}
class Y{}
class Test
{ void m1(X x ,Emp e)
{ System.out.println("m1 method");
}
static void m2(int a,Y y)
}
X x = new X();
Emp e = new Emp();
t.m1(x,e); //calling of instance method by passing objects as an input
Y y = new Y();
Test.m2(10,y); //calling of static method by passing objects as an input
}
}
Main method project code at realtime project level
{ new Test().m1(new X(),new Emp());
Test.m2(10,new Y());
}
Example -5:-
 Inside the class it is not possible to declare two methods with same signature , if we are trying to
declare two methods with same signature compiler will raise compilation error message “m1()
is already defined in Test ”(Java class not allowed Duplicate methods)
class Test
{ void m1()
}
void m1()
}
t.m1();
}
}
51 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example-6:- For java methods return type is mandatory otherwise the compilation will generate error
message “invalid method declaration; return type required “.
class Test
{ m1()
}
t.m1();
}
}
Example-7 :-
 Declaring the class inside another class is called inner classes, java supports inner classes.
 Declaring the methods inside other methods is called inner methods but java not supporting
inner methods concept if we are trying to declare inner methods compiler generate error
message “illegal start of expression”.
class Test
{ void m1()
{ void m2() //inner method
{ System.out.println(“m2() inner method");
}
System.out.println("m1() outer method");
}
{ Test t1=new Test();
t.m1();
}
};
Example 8:-operator overloading
 One operator with more than one behavior is called operator over loading.
 Java is not supporting operator overloading concept but only one implicit overloaded operator in
java is + operator.
o If two operands are integers then plus (+) perform addition.
o If at least one operand is String then plus (+) perform concatenation.
class Test
{ System.out.println(10+20);
System.out.println("ratan"+"anushka"+2+2+"kids");
int a=10,b=20,c=30;
System.out.println(a+"---");
System.out.println(a+"---"+b);
System.out.println(a+"---"+b+"----");
System.out.println(a+"---"+b+"----"+c);
} }
52 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example-9 :- methods vs. All datatypes

 By default the numeric values are integer values but to represent other format like byte, short
perform typecasting.
 By default the decimal values are double values but to represent float value perform typecasting
or use “f” constant. (double d=10.5; float f=20.5f;).
class Test
{ void m1(byte a) { System.out.println("Byte value-->"+a); }
void m2(short b ) { System.out.println("short value-->"+b); }
void m3(int c) { System.out.println("int value-->"+c); }
void m4(long d) { System.out.println("long value is-->"+d); }
void m5(float e) { System.out.println("float value is-->"+e);}
void m6(double f) { System.out.println("double value is-->"+f); }
void m7(char g) { System.out.println("character value is-->"+g); }
void m8(boolean h) { System.out.println("Boolean value is-->"+h); }
t.m1((byte)10); t.m2((short)20);
t.m3(30); t.m4(40);
t.m5(10.6f); t.m6(20.5);
t.m7('a'); t.m8(true);
}
}
Example-10:-java method calling
 In java one method is calling another method by using method name.
 one java method is able to call more than one method. But once the method is completed the
control returns to caller method.
m1() --->calling ---->m2() ----> calling ---> m3()
m1() <------- after completion-m2() <------after completion m3()
class Test
{ void m1()
{ m2(); //m2() method calling
System.out.println("m1");
m2(); //m2() method calling
}
void m2()
{ m3(100); //m3() method calling
System.out.println("m2 ");
m3(200); //m3() method calling
}
void m3(int a)
{ System.out.println("m3 "); }
t.m1(); //m1() method calling
} }
53 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example-11 :-
Case 1:- This keyword not required
In below example instance variables and local variables having different names so this
keyword not required.
class Test
int a=100;
int b=200;
void add(int i,int j)
{ System.out.println(a+b); //instance variables addition
System.out.println(i+j); //local variables addition
}
t.add(10,20);
}
}
Case 2:- This keyword required:-

In below example intstance & local variables having same name, then to represent
instance variables use this keyword.
class Test
int a=100;
int b=200;
void add(int a,int b)
{ System.out.println(a+b); //local variables addition
System.out.println(this.a+this.b); //instance variables addition
}
t.add(10,20);
}
}
54 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example-12 :-
 In java this keyword is instance variable hence it is not possible to use inside static area.
If we are using this variable inside static context then compiler will generate error
message “non-static variable this cannot be referenced from a static context”.
 In the static context it is not possible to use this & super keywords.
class Test
{ int a=100;
static void add(int a)
{ System.out.println(this.a);
}
t.add(10);
}
}
Compilation error:- non-static variable this cannot be referenced from a static context.
Example 13:- Inside the static area if you want access static variables use object name.
class Test
{ int a=100;
static void add(int a)
}
t.add(10);
}
}
55 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example-14 :- Conversion of local variables to instace variables to improve the scope of the variable.
class Test
int val1;
int val2;
void values(int val1,int val2)//local variables
{ System.out.println(val1);
System.out.println(val2);
//conversion of local to instance (passing local variables values to instance variables)
this.val1=val1;
this.val2=val2;
}
void add()
{ System.out.println(val1+val2);
}
void mul()
{ System.out.println(val1*val2);
}
t.values(10,20);
t.add();
t.mul();
}
}
Observation :- if the instance variable names and static variable names are different we can use
directly without this keyword.
//instance variables
int a;
int b;
void values(int val1,int val2)//local variables
{ System.out.println(val1);
System.out.println(val2);
//conversion of local to instance (passing local variables values to instance variables)
a=val1;
b=val2;
}
56 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example-15 :- methods vs return type.
 For java methods return type is mandatory & void represent return nothing.
 Methods can have any return type like

 primitive type such as byte,short,int,long,float….etc
 Arrays type
 Class type
 Interface type
 Enum type.
 If the method is having return type other than void then must return the value by using return
keyword otherwise compiler will generate error message “missing return statement”
Below syntax invalid because method must return int value by using return statement.
int m1()
{ System.out.println("Anushka");
}
The below example is valid because it is returning int value by using return statement.
int m1()
return 100;
}
 Inside the method we are able to declare only one return statement that statement must be last
statement of the method otherwise compiler will generate error message “unreachable
statement”.
The below example is invalid because return statement is must be last statement.
int m1()
{ return 100;
System.out.println("Anushka");
}
The below example valid because return statement is last statement.
int m1()
return 100;
}
 Every method is able to returns the value but holding (storing) that return value is optional, but it
is recommended to hold the return value check the status o the method.
57 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
class Test
{ int m1(int a,char ch)
{ System.out.println("***m1 method***");
System.out.println(a+"---"+ch);
return 100;
}
boolean m2(String str1,String str2)
{ System.out.println("****m2 method****");
System.out.println(str1+"---"+str2);
return true;
}
static String m3(double d,boolean b)
{ System.out.println("****m3 method****");
System.out.println(d+"---"+b);
return "ratan";
}
int x = t.m1(10,'a');
System.out.println("m1() return value-->"+x);
boolean b = t.m2("ratan","anu");
System.out.println("m2() return value-->"+b);
String str = Test.m3(10.5,true);
System.out.println("m3() return value-->"+str);
}
}
Example 16 :- It is possible to print return value of the method in two ways,
2. Hold the value print that value. 2. Directly print call method by using System.out.println()
If the method is having return type is void but if we are trying to call method by using
System.out.println() then compiler will generate error message.
class Test
{ int m1()
return 10; }
void m2()
{ System.out.println("m2 method"); }
{ Test t =new Test();
int x = t.m1();
System.out.println("return value="+x); //1-way
System.out.println("return value="+t.m1()); //2-way
t.m2(); //valid
//System.out.println(t.m2()); Compilation error:'void' type not allowed here
}
}

Example 17 :- Java.util.Scanner
 Scanner class present in java.util package and it is introduced in 1.5 versions & it is used to take
dynamic input from the keyboard.
 To communicate with system resources use System class & to take input from keyboard
use in variable(in=input).
Scanner s = new Scanner(System.in); //Scanner object creation
to get int value ----> s.nextInt()
to get float value ----> s.nextFloat()
to get byte value ----> s.nextbyte()
to get String value ----> s.next()
to get single line ----> s.nextLine()
to close the input stream ----> s.close()
import java.util.*;
class Test
{ Scanner s=new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("enter emp hobbies");
String ehobbies = s.nextLine();
System.out.println("enter emp no");
int eno=s.nextInt();
System.out.println("enter emp name");
String ename=s.next();
System.out.println("enter emp salary");
float esal=s.nextFloat();
System.out.println("*****emp details*****");
System.out.println("emp no----->"+eno);
System.out.println("emp name---->"+ename);
System.out.println("emp sal------>"+esal);
System.out.println("emp hobbies------>"+ehobbies);
s.close(); //used to close the stream
}
}
Example 18:- The \s represents whitespace.
import java.util.*;
public class Test
{ public static void main(String args[])
{ String input = "7 tea 12 coffee";
Scanner s = new Scanner(input).useDelimiter("\\s");
System.out.println(s.nextInt());
System.out.println(s.next());
System.out.println(s.nextInt());
System.out.println(s.next());
s.close(); }}
59 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example 19:- retrun statement vs if-else

import java.util.*;
class Test
{ static String status(int age)
{ if (age>20)
{ return "eligible for marriage"; }
else
{ return "not eligible for marriage"; }
}
{ Scanner s = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("enter your age:");
int age = s.nextInt();
String str = Test.status(age);
System.out.println("your status is="+str);
}
};
Example-20:- methods vs. return variables

Returns local variable as a return value Returns instance variable as a return value(no local
class Test variable)
{ int a=10; class Test
int m1(int a) { int a=10;
{ int m1()
System.out.println("m1() method"); {
return a; //return local variable System.out.println("m1() method");
} return a; //returns instance value
public static void main(String[] args) }
{ Test t = new Test(); public static void main(String[] args)
int x = t.m1(100); { Test t = new Test();
System.out.println(x); int x = t.m1();
} System.out.println(x);
} }
D:\>java Test }
m1() method D:\>java Test
100 m1() method
10
If the application contains both local & instance variables with same name then first priority goes to local
variables but to return instance value use this keyword.
class Test
{ int a=10;
int m1(int a)
{ System.out.println("m1() method");
return this.a; //return instance variable as a return value.
}
int x = t.m1(100);
System.out.println(“m1() return value is ”+x); //printing return value
}
}
60 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example 21:- The java class is able to return user defined class as a return value.
class X{};
class Emp{};
class Test
{ X m1()
X x = new X();
return x;
}
Emp m2()
Emp e = new Emp();
return e;
}
static String m3()
return "ratan";
}
X x1 = t.m1();
Emp e = t.m2();
String str = Test.m3();
}
}
Note: when we print object reference variable it always print hash code of the object (we will discuss later).
Example 22: this keyword representing current class objects.
Java method is able to return current class object in two ways.
1) Creating object & return reference variable.
2) Return this keyword.
In above two approaches 2nd approach is recommended to return the current class object.
class Test
{ Test m1()
return t;
}
Test m2()
return this;
}
Test t1 = t.m1();
Test t2 = t.m2();
}
};

Example 23:- Template method

 Let’s assume to complete your task you must call four methods then,
o you must remember number of method names.
o Order of calling (which one is first & which one is later).
 To overcome above limitation take x( ) method it is calling four methods internally to complete
our task then instead of calling four methods every time call x( ) method that perform our task
that x( ) method is called template method.
class Test
{ void customer() { System.out.println("custome"); }
void product() { System.out.println("product "); }
void selection() { System.out.println("selection"); }
void billing() { System.out.println("billing"); }
void deliveryManager() //template method
{ System.out.println("****Template method***");
//template method is calling four methods in order to complete our task.
customer(); product(); selection(); billing();
}
{ Test t = new Test(); //normal approach
t.customer(); t.product();
t.selection(); t.billing();
//by using template method
t.deliveryManager(); //this method is calling four methods to complete our task.
}
};
Example 24:- Method recursion A method is calling itself during execution is called recursion.
case 1:- (normal output)
class RecursiveMethod
{ static void recursive(int a)
{ System.out.println("number is :- "+a);
if (a==0)
{return;
}
recursive(--a); //same method is calling [recursion]
}
{ RecursiveMethod.recursive(10);
}
};
case 2:- (StackOverFlowError)
class RecursiveMethod
{ static void recursive(int a)
{ System.out.println("number is :- "+a);
if (a==0)
{return;
}
recursive(++a);
62 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
}
{ RecursiveMethod.recursive(10);
}
};
Example 25 :- Stack Mechanism:-
 In java program execution starts from main method called by JVM & just before calling main
method JVM will creates one empty stack memory for that application.
 When JVM calls particular method then that method entry and local variables of that method
stored in stack memory & when the method completed, that particular method entry and local
variables are destroyed from stack memory & that memory becomes available to other methods.
 The jvm will create stack memory just before calling main method & jvm will destroyed stack
memory after completion of main method.
class Test
{ void add(int a,int b)
{ System.out.println(a+b); }
void mul(int a,int b)
{ System.out.println(a+b); }
t.add(5,8); t.mul(10,20);
}
};
Example 26 :-when we call methods recursively then we will get StackOverFlowError.

class Test
{ void m1()
m2();
}
void m2()
{ System.out.println("Sravya");
m1();
}
t.m1();
}

CONSTRUCTORS
Class Vs Object:-
 Class is a logical entity it contains logics whereas object is physical entity it is representing
memory.
 Class is blue print it decides object creation without class we are unable to create object.
 Based on single class (blue print) it is possible to create multiple objects but every object
occupies memory.
 We are declaring the class by using class keyword but we are creating object by using new
keyword.
 We are able to create object in different ways like
o By using new operator
o By using clone() method
o By using new Instance()
o By using instance factory method.
o By using static factory method
o By using pattern factory method
o By using deserialization….etc
But we are able to declare the class by using class keyword.
Object creation syntax:-

Class-name reference-variable = new class-name ();
Test t = new Test ();
Test ---> class Name
t ---> Reference variables
= ---> assignment operator
new ---> keyword used to create object
Test () ---> constructor
; ---> statement terminator
When we create new instance (Object) of a class using new keyword, a constructor for that class
is called.
New :-
 new keyword is used to create object in java.
 When we create object by using new operator after new keyword that part is constructor then
constructor execution will be done.
Rules to declare constructor:-

1) Constructor name class name must be same.
2) It is possible to provide parameters to constructors (just like methods).
3) Constructor not allowed explicit return type. (return type declaration not possible even void).
There are two types of constructors,

1) Default Constructor (provided by compiler).
2) User defined Constructor (provided by user) or parameterized constructor.
64 | P a g e

Default Constructor:-
 Inside the class if we are not declaring at least one constructor then compiler generates zero
argument constructors with empty implementation at the time of compilation.
 The compiler generated constructor is called default constructor.
 Inside the class default constructor is invisible mode.
 To check the default constructor provided by compiler open the .class file code by using java
decompiler software.
Application before compilation :-

class Test
{ void m1()
}
t.m1();
}
}
In above application when we create object by using new keyword “Test t = new Test ()”
then compiler is searching for “Test()” constructor inside the class since not available hence
compiler generate default constructor at the time of compilation.
The default constructor is always 0-argument constructor with empty implementations.
Application after compilation :-

class Test
{ void m1()
}
//default constructor generated by compiler
Test()
{
}
t.m1();
}
}
In above example at run time JVM will execute compiler provide default constructor
during object creation.

User defined constructor:-

The constructors which are declared by user are called user defined constructor.
Example :-
class Test
{ //constructor declared by user
Test()
{ System.out.println("0-arg constructor");
}
Test(int i)
}
Test(int a,int b)
}
Test t2=new Test(10);
Test t3=new Test(100,200);
}
}
Example:-
 Inside the class if we are declaring at least one constructor (either 0-arg or parameterized) then
compiler won’t generate default constructor.
 Inside the class if we are not declaring at least one constructor (either 0-arg or parameterized)
then compiler will generate default constructor.
 if we are trying to compile below application the compiler will generate error message
“Cannot find symbol ” because compiler is unable to generate default constructor.
class Test
{ Test(int i)
}
Test(int a,int b)
}
Test t2=new Test(10);
Test t3=new Test(100,200);
}
}
E:\>javac Test.java
Test.java:9: cannot find symbol
Symbol: constructor Test ()
Location: class Test

Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Note :- default constructor is zero argument constructor but all zero argument
constructors are not default constructors.
Object creation formats:-

2-formats of object creation.
1) Named object (having reference variable) Test t = new Test();
2) Nameless object (without reference variable) new Test();
class Test
{ void m1()
}
{ //named object [having reference variable]
t.m1();
//nameless object [without reference variable`]
new Test().m1();
}
}
2- formats of object creation.

1) Eager object creation.
2) Lazy object creation.
class Test
void m1(){System.out.println("m1 method");}
{ //Eager object creation approach
t.m1();
//lazy object creation approach
Test t1;
;;;;;;;;;; //some code here
t1=new Test();
t1.m1();
}
}
67 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Advantages of constructors:-
1) Constructors are used to write block of java code that code will be executed
during object creation.
2) Constructors are used to initialize instance variables during object creation.
Example :- default constructor execution process.
class Employee
int eid;
String ename;
double esal;
void display()
{ //printing instance variables values
System.out.println("****Employee details****");
System.out.println("Employee name :-->"+ename);
System.out.println("Employee eid :-->"+eid);
System.out.println("Employee sal :-->"+esal);
}
{ Employee e1 = new Employee();
e1.display();
}
}
D:\morn11>java Employee
****Employee details****
Employee name :-->null
Employee eid :-->0
Employee sal :-->0.0
Problems in above example:-
 In above example during object creation time default constructor is executed with empty
implementation and initial values of instance variables (default values) printed .
 In above example Emp object is created but default values are printing hence to overcome
this limitation use user defined constructor to initialize some values to instance variables.
Example 2:- user defined o-argument constructor execution process.
class Employee
int eid;
String ename;
double esal;
Employee( ) //user defined 0-argument constructor
{ //assigning values to instance values during object creation
eid=111;
ename="ratan";
esal =60000;
}
68 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
void display()
System.out.println("Employee name :-->"+eid);
System.out.println("Employee name :-->"+esal);
}
{ Employee e1 = new Employee();
e1.display();
}
}
Compilation & execution process:-

D:\morn11>javac Employee.java
Employee name :-->ratan
Employee name :-->111
Employee name :-->60000.0
In above example during object creation user provided 0-arg constructor executed used
to initialize some values to instance variables.
Problem in above example:-
In above example when we create object it initializing values to instance variables but
when we create multiple object for every object same 0-argument constructors is executing it
initializing same values for all objects
{ Emp e1 = new Emp();
e1.display();
Emp e2 = new Emp();
e2.display();
}
To overcome above limitation use parameterized constructor to initialize different values

to different objects
69 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example 3:- User defined parameterized constructors:-

 Inside the class if the default constructor is executed & object is created but initial
values of variables only printed.
 To overcome above limitation inside the class we are declaring user defined 0-argument
constructor to assign some values to instance variables but when we create multiple
objects for every object same constructor is executing and same values are initializing.
 To overcome above limitation declare the parameterized constructor and pass the
different values to different objects.
Example :-
class Employee
int eid;
String ename;
double esal;
Employee(int eid,String ename,double esal) //local variables
{ //conversion (passing local values to instance values)
this.eid = eid;
this.ename = ename;
this.esal = esal;
}
void display()
System.out.println("Employee name :-->"+eid);
System.out.println("Employee name :-->"+esal);
}
{ // during object creation parameterized constructor executed
Employee e1 = new Employee(111,"ratan",60000);
e1.display();
Employee e2 = new Employee(222,"anu",70000);
e2.display();
}
}
E:\>javac Test.java
E:\>java Employee
Employee name :-->anu

Example :- assign values to instance variables [constructor vs. method]

class Student
int sid;
String sname;
int smarks;
//constructor assigning values to instance variables
Student(int sid,String sname,int smarks)
{ this.sid=sid;
this.sname=sname;
this.smarks=smarks;
}
//method assigning values to instance variables
void assign(int sid,String sname,int smarks)
{ this.sid=sid;
this.sname=sname;
this.smarks=smarks;
}
void disp()
{ System.out.println("****student Details****");
System.out.println("student name = "+sname);
System.out.println("student id = "+sid);
System.out.println("student mrks = "+smarks);
}
{ Student s = new Student(111,"ratan",100);
s.assign(222,"anu",200);
s.disp();
}
}
E:\>java Student
****student Details****
student name = anu
student id = 222
student mrks = 200
Example :- primitive variable vs reference variable
 a is variable of primitive type such as int,char,double,boolean…etc
 t is reference variable & it is the memory address of object.
class Test
{ //a is primitive variable
int a=10;
//t is reference variable
Test t = new Test ();
System.out.println(t);
}
}

Constructor calling:-
To call Current class constructor use this keyword
this(); ----> current class 0-arg constructor calling
this(10); ----> current class 1-arg constructor calling
this(10 , true); ----> current class 2-arg constructor calling
this(10 , ”ratan” , ’a’) ----> current class 3-arg constructor calling
Example-1:-
Call the java methods by uisng method name but to call the current class contructor use this
keyword.
class Test
{ Test( )
{ this(100); //current class 1-arg constructor calling
System.out.println("0-arg constructor logics");
}
Test(int a)
{ this('g',10); //current class 2-arg constructor calling
}
Test(char ch,int a)
{ System.out.println("2-arg constructor logics");
System.out.println(ch+"----"+a);
}
{ new Test( );
}
}
Example 2:-
Inside the constructor this keyword must be first statement otherwise compiler generate error
message “call to this must be first statement in constructor”.
No compilation error:-(this keyword first statement)
Test()
{ this(10); //current class 1-argument constructor calling
System.out.println("0 arg");
}
Compilation error:- (this keyword not a first statement)
Test()
{ System.out.println("0 arg");
this(10); //current class 1-argument constructor calling
}
72 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example-3:-
1. In java one constructor is able to call only one constructor at a time but not possible to call more
than one constructor.
Compilation error:-
Test()
{ this(100); //1-arg constructor calling
this('g',10); //2-arg constructor calling[compilation error]
}
Object creation parts:- Every object creation having three parts.
1) Declaration:-
Test t; //t is Test type
Student s; //s is Student type
A a; //a is A type
2) Instantiation:-(just object creation)
new Test(); //Test object
new Student(); //student object
new A(); //A object
3) initialization:-(during object creation perform initialization)
new Test(10,20); //during object creation 10,20 values initialized
new Student("ratan",111); //during object creation values are initialized
new A('a',true) //during object creation values are initialized
Example :- By using constructors copy the values of one object to another object.
class Student
{ int sid;
String sname;
int smarks;
Student(int sid,String sname,int smarks)
{ this.sid=sid; this.sname=sname; this.smarks=smarks;
}
Student(Student s) //constructor expected Student object
{ this.sid=s.sid; this.sname=s.sname; this.smarks=s.smarks;
}
void disp()
{ System.out.println("****student Details****");
System.out.println("student name = "+sname);
System.out.println("student id = "+sid);
System.out.println("student mrks = "+smarks);
}
{ Student s = new Student(111,"ratan",100);
Student s1 = new Student(s); //constructor is taking Student object
s.disp(); s1.disp();
}
}
73 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Constructor chaining :-
 One constructor is calling same class constructor is called constructor calling.
 We are achieving constructor calling by using this keyword.
 Inside constructor we are able to declare only one this keyword that must be first
statement of the constructor.
class Test
{ Test()
{ this(10);
System.out.println("0-arg cons");
}
Test(int i)
{ this(10,20);
System.out.println("1-arg cons");
}
Test(int i,int j)
{ System.out.println("2-arg cons");
}
{ new Test();
}
}
Example:- Assignment
class Student
{ String sname;
int sid;
static String college="SSCET";
Student(String sname,int sid)

{ this.sname=sname;
this.sid=sid;
}
void display()
{ System.out.println("student id="+sid);
System.out.println("student name="+sname);
System.out.println("student college="+college);
}
{
Student s1 = new Student("ratan",111);
s1.display();
Student s2 = new Student("anu",222);
s2.display();
}
}

Difference between methods and constructors:-

Property methods constructors
1)Purpose methods are used to write logics Constructor is used write
but these logics will be executed logics of the project but the
when we call that method. logics will be executed during
Object creation.
2)Variable initialization It is initializing variable when It is initializing variable

We call that method. during object creation.
3)Return type Return type not allowed It allows all valid return
Even void. Types(void,int,Boolean…etc)
4)Name Method name starts with lower Class name and constructor
Case & every inner word starts name must be matched.
With upper case.
Ex: charAt(),toUpperCase()….
5)types a) instance method a)default constructor

b)static method b)user defined constructor
6)inheritance methods are inherited constructors are not inherited.
7)how to call To call the methods use method to call the constructor use
Name. this keyword.
8)able to call how many one method is able to call one constructors able to
Methods or constructors multiple methods at a time. Call only one constructor
at a time.
9)this to call instance method use this To call constructor use this
Keyword but It is not possible to keyword but inside constructor
call static method. use only one this statement.
10)Super used to call super class methods. Used to call super class constructor
11)Overloading it is possible to overload methods it is possible to overload cons.
12)compiler generate yes does not apply

Default cons or not
13)compiler generate yes does not apply.
Super keyword.

Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Instance Blocks:-
 Instance blocks are used to write the logics of projects & these logics are executed during
object creation just before constructor execution.
 Instance blocks execution depends on object creation it means if we are creating 10
objects 10 times constructors are executed just before constructors instance blocks are
executed.
 Instance block syntax
{ //logics here }
Example 1:-
class Test
{ //instance block
{ System.out.println("instance block:logics");
}
Test()
{ System.out.println("constructor:logics");
}
{ new Test();
}
}
Example 2:-
Inside the class it is possible to declare multiple instance blocks but the execution order is
top to bottom.
class Test
{ { System.out.println("instance block-1:logics");
}
Test()
{ System.out.println("0-arg constructor:logics");
}
{ System.out.println("instance block-2:logics");
}
Test(int a)
}
{ new Test();
new Test();
new Test(10);
}
}
76 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example 3:-
 Instance block execution depends on object creation but not constructor exaction.
 In below example two constructors are executing but only one object is crating hence
only one time instance block is executed.
class Test
{ { System.out.println("instance block-1:logics");
}
Test()
{ this(10);
System.out.println("0-arg constructor:logics");
}
Test(int a)
}
{ new Test();
}
}
Example 4:-
Case 1:- When we declare instance block & instance variable the execution order is top to bottom.
In below example instance block is declared first so instance block is executed first.
class Test
{ { System.out.println("instance block"); } //instance block
int a=m1(); //instance variables
int m1()
{ System.out.println("m1() method called by variable");
return 100;
}
{ new Test();
}
}
D:\morn11>java Test
instance block
m1() method called by variable
case 2:- When we declare instance block & instance variable the execution order is top to bottom.
In below example instance variable is declared first so instance block is executed first.
class Test
{ int a=m1(); //instance varaibles
int m1()
{ System.out.println("m1() method called by variable");
77 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
return 100;
}
{ System.out.println("instance block");
}
{ new Test();
}
}
D:\morn11>java Test
m1() method called by variable
instance block
Example-5 :-
 Instance blocks are used to initialize instance variables during object creation but just
before constructor execution.
 In java it is possible to initialize the values in different ways
o By using constructors
o By using instance blocks
o By using methods
o By using setter methods……..…etc
class Emp
{ int eid;
//instance block initializing values
{ eid=111;
}
//constructor initializing values
Emp()
{ eid=222;
}
//method initializing values
void assign()
{ eid=333;
}
void disp()
{ System.out.println("****Employee Details****");
System.out.println("emp id="+eid);
}
{ Emp e = new Emp();
e.disp();
}
};
78 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
static block:-
 Static blocks are used to write the logics of project that logics are executed during .class
file loading time.
 In java .class file is loaded only one time hence static blocks are executed once per class.
 Static block syntax,
static
{ //logics here
}
Note : instance blocks execution depends on object creation but static blocks
execution depends on .class file loading.
Example-1 :-
class Test
{ static
{ System.out.println("static block");
}
{
}
}
Example-3 :-static block is initializing variable

Static blocks are used to initialize static variables during .class file loading.
class Emp
{ static int eid;
static
{ eid=111;
}
static void assign()
{ eid=333;
}
static void disp()
{ System.out.println(eid);
}
{ Emp e = new Emp();
e.assign();
e.disp();
}
}
79 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr.Ratan
Example-4 :- To execute static blocks inside the class main() method is mandatory or optional.
class Test
{ static
{ System.out.println("static block");
}
}
 When we execute above code up to 1.5 version the code is compiled & executed it will
generate output.
Note : Based on above point up to 1.5 version it is possible to print some statements in output
console without using main method inside the class.
 When we execute the above code from 1.6 version onwards the code is not compiled it will
generate compilation error.
Note:- based on above point from 1.6 version onwards it is not possible to print some statements
in output console without using main method inside the class.
Example-5:-
 When we execute the .class file manually then to execute static blocks inside the class main() method
mandatory.
 When we load the .class file into memory programmatically then to execute the static blocks main()
method is optional.
 In below example both files must present in same folder (same location).
File 1:- Demo.java

class Demo
{ static
{ System.out.println("Demo class static block");
}
void m1()
{ System.out.println("Demo class m1 method");
}
};
File -2:- Test.java

class Test
{ static
{ System.out.println("Test class static blocks");
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
{ Class c = Class.forName("Demo");
Demo d = (Demo)c.newInstance();
d.m1();
}
}

Object-Oriented Programming Concepts

 The first object oriented programming is : Simula, smalltalk
 In object oriented programming languages everything represented in the form of object.
 Object is real world entity that has state & behavior.
Examples:- such as pen,chair,table,house….etc.
Every object contains three characteristics,

1) State : well defined condition of an item (instance variable/fields/properties)
2) Behavior : effects on an item (methods/behavior)
3) identity : identification number of an item(hash code)
Example :-
Object : Car
State : gear,speed,color…etc
Behavior : current speed,current gear,Accelarate…etc
Identity : car number
Object : house
State : location
Behavior : doors open/close.
Identity : house no
The main building blocks of oops are,

1. Inheritance
2. Polymorphism
3. Abstraction
4. Encapsulation….etc
Inheritance:-
1. The process of acquiring properties (variables) & methods (behaviors) from one class to another
class is called inheritance.
2. We are achieving inheritance concept by using extends keyword. Inheritance is also known as is-
a relationship.
3. Extends keyword is providing relationship between two classes..
4. The main objective of inheritance is code extensibility whenever we are extending the class
automatically code is reused.
5. In inheritance one class providing properties & another class is acquiring the properties.
6. In inheritance parent class is giving properties & Child is acquiring properties from Parent.
81 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Application code before inheritance Application code after inheritance

class A class A //parent class or super class or base
{ void m1(){ } { void m1(){ }
void m2(){ } void m2(){ }
}; };
class B class B extends A //child class or sub or derived
{ void m1(){ } { void m3(){ }
void m2(){ } void m4(){ }
void m3(){ } };
void m4(){ } class C extends B
}; { void m5(){ }
class C void m6(){ }
{ void m1(){ } };
void m2(){ }
void m3(){ } a. Eliminated duplication.
void m4(){ } b. Length of the code is decreased.
void m5(){ } c. Reusing properties in child classes.
void m6(){ }
};
a. Duplication of code.
b. Code length is increased.
Note: - To reduce length of the code and redundancy of the code & to improve re-usability of
code sun people introduced inheritance concept.
Object creation of parent & child classes:-
In java it is possible to create objects for both parent and child classes,
 If we are creating object for parent class it is possible to access only parent specific methods.
A a=new A(); a.m1(); a.m2();
 if we are creating object for child class it is possible to access both parent & child specific
methods.
B b=new B(); b.m1(); b.m2(); b.m3(); b.m4();
C c=new C(); c.m1(); c.m2(); c.m3(); c.m4(); c.m5(); c.m6();
Important points:-
class A
{ }
class B extends A
{ }
class C extends B
{ }
1) in java if we are extending the class then it will be parent class , if we are not extending the
class then object class will become parent class.
2) In above example A class is direct child class of object & B,C classes are indirect child classes
of object.it represent in java every class is child of object either directly(A) or indirectly(B,C).
3) The root class of all java classes is “object” class.
4) Every java class contain parent class except object class.
82 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
5) Object class present in java.lang package and it contains 11 methods & all java classes able
to use these 11 methods because Object class is root class of all java classes.
To check the predefined support use javap command.

E:\>javap java.lang.Object
public class java.lang.Object
{ public final native java/lang/Class<?> getClass();
public native int hashCode();
public boolean equals(java.lang.Object);
protected native java.lang.Object clone() throws ava.lang.CloneNotSupportedException;
public java.lang.String toString();
public final native void notify();
public final native void notifyAll();
public final native void wait(long) throws java.lang.InterruptedException;
public final void wait(long, int) throws java.lang.InterruptedException;
public final void wait() throws java.lang.InterruptedException;
protected void finalize() throws java.lang.Throwable;
}
Types of inheritance :-
There are five types of inheritance in java,
1. Single inheritance
2. Multilevel inheritance
3. Hierarchical inheritance
4. Multiple inheritance
5. Hybrid Inheritance
Single inheritance:-
 One class has only one direct super class is called single inheritance.
 In the absence of any other explicit super class, every class is implicitly a subclass of Object class.
Class B extends A ===>class B acquiring properties of A class.

Example:-
class Parent
{ }
class Child extends Parent
{ }
83 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Multilevel inheritance:-
One Sub class is extending Parent class then that sub class will become Parent class of next
extended class this flow is called multilevel inheritance.
Class B extends A ===> class B acquiring properties of A class

Class C extends B ===> class C acquiring properties of B class
[indirectly class C using properties of A & B classes]
Example:-
class A
{ void m1(){System.out.println("m1 method");}
};
class B extends A
};
class C extends B
{ A a = new A(); a.m1();
B b = new B(); b.m1(); b.m2();;
C c = new C(); c.m1(); c.m2(); c.m3();
}
}
Hierarchical inheritance :-
More than one sub class is extending single Parent is called hierarchical inheritance.
Class B extends A ===> class B acquiring properties of A class

Class C extends A ===> class C acquiring properties of A class
Class D extends A ===> class D acquiring properties of A class
Example:-
class A
{ }
class B extends A
{ }
class C extends A
{ }
84 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Multiple inheritance:-
 One sub class is extending more than one super class is called Multiple inheritance and java not
supporting multiple inheritance because it is creating ambiguity problems (confusion state) .
 Java not supporting multiple inheritances hence in java one class able to extends only one class
at a time but it is not possible to extends more than one class.
Class A extends B ===>valid
Class A extends B ,C ===>invalid
Example:-
class Parent1
{ void money() {System.out.println("parent1 money");}
};
class Parent2
{ void money() {System.out.println("parent2 money");}
};
class Child extends Parent1,Parent2
{ Child c = new Child();
c.money(); //ambiguity problems
}
};
Hybrid inheritance:-
 Hybrid is combination of hierarchical & multiple inheritance .
 Java is not supporting hybrid inheritance because multiple inheritance(not supported by java) is
included in hybrid inheritance.
Preventing inheritance:-
 You can prevent sub class creation by using final modifier.
 If a parent class declared as final we can’t create sub class for that class.
final class Parent
{ }
{ }
compilation error:- cannot inherit from final Parent
85 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Instanceof operator:-
 It is used check the type of the object and it returns Boolean value as a return value.
Syntax:- reference-variable instanceof class-name;
 To use the instanceof operator the class name & reference variable must have some relationship
either parent to child or child to parent otherwise compiler will generate error message
“inconvertible types”.
 If the relationship is child to parent it returns true & the relationship is parent to child it return
false.
Example :-
class Animal{ };
class Dog extends Animal{ };
class Test
Animal a = new Animal();
Dog d = new Dog();
Object o = new Object();
System.out.println(d instanceof Animal); //true
System.out.println(a instanceof Object); //true
System.out.println(a instanceof Dog); //false
System.out.println(t instanceof Object); //true
System.out.println(o instanceof Animal); //false
//System.out.println(t instanceof Animal); compilation error:inconvertible types
}
}
Association:-
 Class A uses class B
 When one object wants another object to perform services for it.
 Relationship between teacher and student, number of students associated with one teacher or
one student can associate with number of teachers. But there is no ownership and both objects
have their own life cycles.
Example-1:-
In below example student uses Teacher class object services.
class Teacher
{ void course()
{ System.out.println("corejava by ratan");
}
};
class Student
{ Teacher t = new Teacher();
t.course();
}
};
86 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Aggregation:-
 Class A has instance of class B is called aggregation.
 Class A can exists without presence of class B . a university can exists without chancellor.
 Take the relationship between teacher and department. A teacher may belongs to multiple
departments hence teacher is a part of multiple departments but if we delete department object
teacher object will not destroy.
Example:-
Address.java
class Address
int dno;
String state;
String country;
Address(int dno,String state,String country) //local variables
{ //conversion process
this.dno=dno;
this.state= state;
this.country = country;

Composition :-
 Class A owns class B , it is a strong type of aggregation. There is no meaning of child without
parent.
 Order consists of list of items without order no meaning of items. or bank account consists of
transaction history without bank account no meaning of transaction history or without student
class no meaning of marks class.
 Let’s take Example house contains multiple rooms, if we delete house object no meaning of room
object hence the room object cannot exists without house object.
 Relationship between question and answer, if there is no meaning of answer without question
object hence the answer object cannot exist without question objects.
 Relationship between student and marks, there is no meaning of marks object without student
object.
Example :-
Marks.java
class Marks
{ int m1,m2,m3;
Marks(int m1,int m2,int m3) //local variables
{ this.m1=m1; this.m2=m2; this.m3=m3;
}
};
student.java
class Student
{ Marks mk; //without student class no meaning of marks is called "composition"
String sname;
int sid;
Student(Marks mk,String sname,int sid) //local variables
{ this.mk = mk; this.sname = sname; this.sid = sid;
}
void display()
{ System.out.println("student name:-->"+sname);
System.out.println("student id:-->"+sid);
System.out.println("student marks:-->"+mk.m1+"---"+mk.m2+"--"+mk.m3);
}
{ Marks m1 = new Marks(10,20,30);
Student s1 = new Student(m1,"ratan",111);
s1.display();
// new Student(new Marks(10,20,30),"ratan",111).display(); project code
Marks m2 = new Marks(100,200,300);
Student s2 = new Student(m2,"anu",222);
s2.display();
// new Student(new Marks(100,200,300),"anu",222).display(); project code
}

Object delegation:-
The process of sending request from one object to another object is called object delegation.
Example :-
class RealPerson //delegate class
{ void book(){System.out.println("real java book");}
};
class DummyPerson //delegator class
{ RealPerson r = new RealPerson();
void book( ) {r.book( ); } //delegation
};
class Student
{ //outside world thinking dummy Person doing work but not.
DummyPerson d = new DummyPerson();
d.book();
}
};
Super keyword:-
“this” keyword is used to represent current class object& “super” keyword is used to represent
super class object.
1. Super class variables.
2. Super class methods.
3. Super class constructors.
4. Super class instance blocks.
5. Super class static blocks.
super class variables calling:-

class Parent
{ int a=10,b=20;
};
{ int a=100;
int b=200;
void m1(int a,int b) //local variables
{ System.out.println(a+b); //local variables addition
System.out.println(this.a+this.b); //current class variables addition
System.out.println(super.a+super.b); //super class variables addition
}
{ new Child().m1(1000,2000);
}
};
90 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
super class methods calling:-

class Parent
{ void m1(){System.out.println("parent m1() method");}
};
{ void m1() {System.out.println("child class m1() method");}
void m3()
{ this.m1();
super.m1();
}
{ new Child().m3();
}
};
To call the super class methods super keyword is mandatory but to represent current class
methods this keyword is optional.
super class constructors calling:-

Example-1:-
To call the current class constructors use this keyword but to call super class constructor use
super keyword.
super() ----> super class 0-arg constructor calling
super(10) ----> super class 1-arg constructor calling
super(10,20) ----> super class 2-arg constructor calling
super(10,'a',true) ----> super class 3-arg constructor calling
class Parent
{ Parent() {System.out.println("parent 0-arg constructor");}
};
{ Child()
{ this(10); //current class 1-arg constructor calling
System.out.println("Child 0-arg constructor");
}
Child(int a)
{ super(); //super class 0-arg constructor calling
System.out.println("child 1-arg constructor--->"+a);
}
{ new Child();
}
};
91 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example-2:-
Inside the constructor super keyword must be first statement otherwise compiler
generates error message “call to super must be first line in constructor”.
No compilation error:-
Child()
{ this(10); // (this must be first line)
}
Child(int a)
{ super(); //(super must be first line)
System.out.println("child 1-arg constructor--->"+a);
}
Compilation Error:-
Child()
{ System.out.println("Child 0-arg constructor");
this(10); //compilation error
}
Child(int a)
{ System.out.println("child 1-arg constructor--->"+a);
super(); //(compilation Error)
}
Example-3:-
Inside the constructor it is possible to use either this keyword or super keyword but,
 Two super keywords are not allowed.
 Two this keywords are not allowed.
 Both super & this keyword also not allowed.
Compilation Error:-
Child()
{ this(10);
super();
}
Child()
{ super(10);
super();
}
Child()
{ this(10);
this();
}
92 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example-4:-
In below example parent class default constructor is executed that is provided by compiler.
class Parent
{ // default constructor
};
{ Child()
{ super()
}
{ new Child();
}
};
D:\>java Child
Child 0-arg constructor
Example-5:-
1. Inside the constructor weather it is a 0-argument or parameterized if we are not declaring super
or this keyword then compiler generate super keyword at first line of the constructor.
2. The compiler generated super keyword is always 0-arg constructor calling.
class Parent
{ Parent() { System.out.println("parent 0-arg constructor"); }
};
{ Child()
{ //super(); generated by compiler at compilation time
}
{ new Child();
}
};
D:\>java Child
parent 0-arg constructor
Child 0-arg constructor
93 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example-6:-
In below example child class is calling parent class 0-argument constructor since not there so
compiler generate error message.
class Parent
{ Parent(int a) { System.out.println("parent 1-arg cons-->"+a); }
};
{ Child()
{ //super(); generated by compiler
}
{ new Child();
}
};
Example-7:-
In below compiler generate default constructor and inside that default constructor super
keyword is generated.
Application code before compilation:- ( .java ) Application code after compilation:- ( .class )
class Parent class Parent
{ Parent() { { Parent()
System.out.println("parent 0-arg cons"); { System.out.println("parent 0-arg cons");
} }
}; };
class Child extends Parent class Child extends Parent
{ public static void main(String[] args) { /* below code is generated by compiler
{ new Child(); Child()
} { super();
}; } */
{ new Child();
}
};
Example-8 :-
In below example in Test class 0-argument constructor compiler generate super keyword it
execute parent class(Object) default constructor.
class Test extends Object
{ Test()
{ // super(); generated by compiler
System.out.println("Test class constructor");
}
{ new Test();
}
};
94 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example-9:-
In below example in child class 1-argument & 0 argument constructors compiler generate super
keyword hence parent class 0-argument constructor will be executed.
class Parent
{ Parent(){System.out.println("parent 0-arg cons"); }
};
{ Child()
}
Child(int a)
System.out.println("child 1-arg cons");
}
{ new Child();
new Child(10);
}
};
Example-10:-
class GrandParent
{ int c;
GrandParent(int c)
{ this.c=c; }
};
class Parent extends GrandParent
{ int b;
Parent(int b,int c)
{ super(c);
this.b=b; }
};
{ int a;
Child(int a,int b,int c)
{ super(b,c);
this.a=a; }
void disp()
{ System.out.println("child class ="+a);
System.out.println("parent class ="+b);
System.out.println("grandparent class ="+c);
}
{ new Child(10,20,30).disp(); }
};

Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Super class instance blocks:-

Example-1:-
In parent and child relationship first parent class instance blocks are executed then child class
instance blocks are executed.
class Parent
{ {System.out.println("parent instance block");} //instance block
};
{
{ System.out.println("Child instance block"); } //instance block
Child()
{ System.out.println("chld 0-arg cons");
}
{ new Child();
}
};
Super class static blocks:-
Example-1:-
In parent and child relationship first parent class static blocks are executed only one time
then child class static blocks are executed only one time because static blocks are executed with
respect to .class loading.
Instance block execution depends on object creation & static block execution depends on
class loading.
class Parent
{ static{System.out.println("parent static block");} //static block
{System.out.println("parent instance block");} //instance block
};
{ static{System.out.println("child static block");} //static block
{System.out.println("child instance block");} //instance block
{ new Child();
new Child();
}
};
E:\>java Child
parent static block
child static block

Example: - object usage in real time projects.

File-1: Gmail.java
class Gmail
{ void compose() { System.out.println("to perform compose operation"); }
void inbox() { System.out.println("to perform inbox operation"); }
void sentItem() { System.out.println("to perform sent Item operation"); }
}
File-2: UserOperations1.java
Problem: in below example we are creating object locally & in every method we are creating object it
increases duplication of the code.
class UserOperations
{ void ratan()
{ System.out.println("ratan operations:");
Gmail g = new Gmail();
g.compose(); }
void anu()
{ System.out.println("anu operations:");
g.inbox(); }
void yadhu()
{ System.out.println("yadhu operations:");
g.sentItem(); }
}
File-2: UserOperations2.java
Solution: in below example we are creating object globally hence every method is able to access this
variable.
class UserOperations
{ Gmail g;
void ratan()
{ System.out.println("ratan operations:");
g= new Gmail();
g.compose(); }
void anu()
{ System.out.println("anu operations:");
g.inbox(); }
void yadhu()
{ System.out.println("yadhu operations:");
g.sentItem(); }
}
File 3: Test.java
class Test
{ UserOperations o = new UserOperations();
o.ratan(); o.anu(); o.yadhu();

Polymorphism:-
 The ability to appear in more forms is called polymorphism.
 One thing can exhibits more than one form is called polymorphism.
 One functionality with different actions is called polymorphisum.
 One person with different debaviours is called polymorphisumk.
 Polymorphism is a Greek word poly means many and morphism means forms.
There are two types of polymorphism in java,

1) Compile time polymorphism / static binding / early binding
Example :- method overloading.
2) Runtime polymorphism /dynamic binding /late binding.
Example :- method overriding.
Compile time polymorphism [Method Overloading]:-

1) If java class allows more than one method with same name but different number of
arguments or same number of arguments but different data types those methods are called
overloaded methods.
a. Same method name but different number of arguments.
void m1(int a){ }
void m1(int a,int b){ }
b. Same method name & same number of arguments but different data types.
void m1(int a){ }
void m1(char ch){ }
2) To achieve overloading concept one java class sufficient.
3) It is possible to overload any number of methods in single java class.
Example:-
class Test
{ //below three methods are overloaded methods.
void m1(int i)
{ System.out.println("int-argument method");
}
void m1(int i,int j)
{ System.out.println("int,int argument method=");
}
void m1(char ch)
{ System.out.println("char-argument method");
}
t.m1(10);
t.m1(10,20);
t.m1('a');
}
}
98 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example:-
 In method overloading it is possible to have different data types for overloaded method.
 While overloading the methods check the signature(methodname+parameters) of the method
but not return type.
class Test
{ //below two methods are overloaded methods
double m1(int a,int b)
{ System.out.println("int,int arguments method");
return 20.5;
}
int m1(float f)
{ System.out.println("float argument method");
return 100;
}
double d = t.m1(10,20);
System.out.println("return type="+d);
int x = t.m1(10.5f);
System.out.println("return type="+x);
}
}
method overloading with type promotion

byte short
Int long float double
char
Example:-
class Test
{ void m1(int a,long b)
{ System.out.println("int,long arguments method");
}
void m1(float f)
{ System.out.println("float argument");
}
t.m1(10,20);
t.m1((byte)10,(short)20);
t.m1(10);
t.m1(10L);
}
}
E:\>java Test
int,long arguments method
int,long arguments method
float argument
float argument
99 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example:-
class Test
{ void sum(int a,int b)
{ System.out.println("int arguments method");
System.out.println(a+b);
}
void sum(long a,long b)
{ System.out.println("long arguments method");
}
void sum(int a,long b)
{ System.out.println("int,long arguments method");
}
void sum(long a,int b)
{ System.out.println("long,int arguments method");
}
t.sum(1,2);
t.sum(10L,20L);
t.sum(100,200L);
t.sum(1000L,2000);
}
}
Types of overloading:-
There are three types of overloading in java,
a. Method overloading explicitly by the programmer
b. Constructor overloading
c. Operator overloading implicitly by the JVM(‘+’ addition& concatenation)
Constructor Overloading:-
If the class contains more than one constructors with same name but different arguments or
same number of arguments with different data types those constructors are called overloaded
constructors.
a. Same constructor name but different number of arguments.
Test(int a){ } //assume Test is java class
Test(int a,int b){ }
b. Same constructor name & same number of arguments but different data types.
Test(int a){ }
Test(char ch){ }
100 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
class Test
{ //overloaded constructors
Test()
}
Test(int i)
{ System.out.println("int argument constructor");
}
Test(char ch,int i)
{ System.out.println("char,int argument constructor");
}
Test(char ch)
{ System.out.println("char argument constructor");
}
{ new Test();
new Test(10);
new Test('a',100);
new Test('r');
}
}
Operator overloading:-
 One operator with different behaviors is called Operator overloading .
 Java is not supporting operator overloading but only one overloaded in java language is ‘+’.
 If both operands are integer then “+” performs addition.
 If at least one operand is String then “+” perform concatenation.
Example:-
class Test
{ int a=10;
int b=20;
System.out.println(a+b); //30 [addition]
System.out.println(a+"ratan"); //10Ratan [concatenation]
System.out.println("ratan"+"anu"+2+2+"kids");
System.out.println(2+2+"kids"+"ratan"+"anu");
}
}
101 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Runtime polymorphism [Method Overriding]:-

 To achieve method overloading one java class sufficient but to achieve method overriding we
required two java classes with parent and child relationship.
 The method implementations already present in parent class,
a. If the child class required that implementation then access those implementations.
b. If the child class not required, parent class method implementations then override
parent class method in child class to provide child specific implementations.
 The sub class overrides super class method to provide sub class method implementations.
 In overriding parent class method is called ===> overridden method
Child class method is called ===> overriding method
Example :-
In below example marry method present in parent class with some implementations but child
class overriding marry method to provide child specific implementation is called overriding.
class Parent
{ void property()
{ System.out.println("money+land+hhouse");
}
void marry() //overridden method
{ System.out.println("black girl");
}
};
{ void marry() //overriding method
{ System.out.println("white girl/red girl");
}
{ Child c=new Child();
c.property();
c.marry();
}
};
E:\>java Child
money+land+hhouse
white girl/red girl
While overriding methods must fallow these rules:-

1) Overridden method signature & overriding method signatures must be same.
2) The return types of overridden method & overriding method must be same (at primitive level).
3) While overriding it is possible to change return type by using co-variant return types concept.
4) Final methods can’t override.
5) Static method can’t override but method hiding possible.
6) Private methods can’t override.
7) While overriding it is not possible to maintain same level permission or increasing order but not
decreasing.
8) Overriding with exception handling rules.
102 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Method overriding rule 1:-

While overriding methods the overridden method signature and overriding method signature
must be same.
Method signature nothing but method-name & parameters list.
class Parent
{ void marry(){ } //overridden method
}
{ void marry(){ } //overriding method
};
Method overriding rule-2:-
While overriding method overridden method return type & overriding method return type must
be same at primitive level (byte,int,double,boolean…etc) otherwise compiler will generate error message.
class Parent
{ void marry(){ } //overridden method
}
{ int marry(){ } //overriding method
};
compilation error:- marry() in Child cannot override marry() in Parent
return type int is not compatible with void
 Before java 1.5 version it is not possible to override the method by changing return type but form
java 5 versions it is possible to override the method by changing return type by using co-variant
return type’s concept.
 While overriding methods it is possible to change the return type of overridden method &
overriding methods at class level by using co-variant return type concept but not primitive level.
 The return type of overriding method is must be sub-type of overridden method return type this
is called covariant return types.
Note :while overriding methods it is possible to change return type at class-level but not primitive level.
class Animal{ }
class Dog extends Animal{ }
class Parent
{ Animal m1() //overridden method
{ System.out.println("parent m1");
return new Animal(); }
}
{ Dog m1() //overriding method
{ System.out.println("child m1");
return new Dog(); }
{ Parent p = new Parent();
Animal a = p.m1();
Child c = new Child();
Dog d = c.m1();
}
};
103 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan

1) If an overridden method is final it is not possible to override that method in child class.
2) Final classes are preventing inheritance concept & final methods are preventing overriding
concept.
Example :-
class Parent
{ final void marry(){ } //overridden method
}
{ void marry(){ } //overriding method
};
Compilation error:- marry() in Child cannot override marry() in Parent
overridden method is final
Example:-final variables
When we declare variable as a final it is not possible to change the value of final variable. If we
are trying to change final variable compiler will generate error message.
Final variables are fixed constants it is not possible to perform modifications.
Case 1:- in java for the local variables only one modifier is applicable that is final.
class Test
{ final int a=10;
a=a+10; //trying to modify a value it will generate error
}
};
compilation error:- cannot assign a value to final variable a
case 2:- if you declare instance or static variable with final we should initialize that variable with some
values by using constructors r instance blocks otherwise compiler will generate error message.
class Test
{ final int a; //instance variable
final static int b; //static variable
};
The above example will generate error message “variable might not have been initialized”
Example:-
 Final class variables are not a final but final class methods are by default final.
 Final class methods are by default final because for the final class not possible to create sub-
classes hence it is not possible to override that method.
final class Test
{ int a=10;
void m1()
a=a+10;
}
{ new Test().m1();
}
};

Type-casting:-
The process of converting data one type to another type is called type casting.
There are two types of type casting
1. Implicit typecasting /widening/up casting
2. Explicit type-casting (narrowing)/do
Type casting chart:-
Up-casting :-
byte short
char
down-casting:-
byte short
char
When we assign higher value to lower data type range then compiler will rise compiler error “possible
loss of precision” but whenever we are type casting higher data type-lower data type compiler won’t
generate error message but we will loss the data.
Implicit-typecasting:- (widening) or (up casting)

1. When we assign lower data type value to higher data type that typecasting is called up- casting.
2. When we perform up casting data no data loss.
3. It is also known as up-casting or widening.
4. Compiler is responsible to perform implicit typecasting.
Explicit type-casting:- (Narrowing) or (down casting)

1. When we assign a higher data type value to lower data type that type-casting is called down
casting.
2. When we perform down casting data will be loss.
3. It is also known as narrowing or down casting.
4. User is responsible to perform explicit typecasting.
Note :- Parent class reference variable is able to hold child class object but Child class reference
variable is unable to hold parent class object.
class Parent
{ };
{ };
Parent p = new Child(); //valid
Child c = new Parent(); //invalid

p1.m1(); //child m1() will be executed
//p1.m2(); Compilation error we are unable to call m2() method
Child c1 =(Child)p1; //type casting parent reference variable to child object.
c1.m1();
c1.m2();
}
};
 In above example parent class is able to hold child class object but when you call p.m1();
method compiler is checking m1() method in parent class at compilation time. But at runtime
child object is created hence Child method will be executed.
 Based on above point decide in above method execution decided at runtime hence it is a runtime
polymorphism.
 When you call p.m2 (); compiler is checking m2 () method in parent class since not there so
compiler generate error message. Finally it is not possible to call child class m2 () by using parent
reference variable even thought child object is created.
 Based on above point we can say by using parent reference it is possible to call only overriding
methods (m1 () ) of child class but it is not possible to call direct method(m2() ) of child class.
 To overcome above limitation to call child class method perform typecasting.
Example:- in java it is possible to override methods in child classes but it is not possible to
override variables in child classes.
class Parent
{ int a=100;
};
{ int a=1000;
{ Parent p = new Child();
System.out.println("a vlues is :--->"+p.a); //100
}
};

If a subclass defines a static method with the same signature as a static method in the superclass, then the
method in the subclass hides the one in the superclass.
class Animal
{ void instanceMethod(){System.out.println("instance method in Animal");}
static void staticMethod(){System.out.println("static method in Animal");}
};
class Dog extends Animal
{ void instanceMethod(){System.out.println("instance method in Dog");}//overriding
static void staticMethod(){System.out.println("static method in Dog");}//hiding
public static void main(String[ ] args)
{ Animal a = new Dog();
a.instanceMethod();
a.staticMethod(); // [or] Animal.instanceMethod();
}
};
 The version of the overridden instance method that gets invoked is the one in the subclass.
 The version of the hidden static method that gets invoked depends on whether it is invoked from the
superclass or the subclass.
The Cat class overrides the instance method in Animal and hides the static method in Animal.
The main method in this class creates an instance of Cat and invokestestClassMethod() on the class
and testInstanceMethod() on the instance.
Example :- importance of converting parent class reference variable into child class object
//let assume predefined class
class ActionForm
{ void xxx(){} //predefined method
void yyy(){} //predefined method
};
class LoginForm extends ActionForm //assume to create LoginForm our class must extends ActonForm
{ void m1(){System.out.println("LoginForm m1 method");} //method of LoginFrom class
void m2(){System.out.println("LoginForm m2 method");} //method of LoginFrom class

{ //assume server(Tomcat,glassfish…) is creating object of LoginForm
ActionForm af = new LoginForm(); //creates object of LoginForm class
//af.m1(); af.m2(); //by using af it is not possible to call m1() & m2()
LoginForm lf = (LoginForm)af;//type casting

lf.m1();
lf.m2();
}
};

Example:- method overriding vs. Hierarchical inheritance

class Heroin
{ int rating( ) { return 0 ; }
};
class Anushka extends Heroin
{ int rating(){return 1;}
};
class Nazriya extends Heroin
};
class Kf extends Heroin
}
class Test
{ /*Heroin h,h1,h2,h3;
h = new Heroin();
h1 = new Anushka();
h2 = new Nazriya();
h3 = new Kf();*/
Heroin h = new Heroin();
Heroin h1 = new Anushka();
Heroin h2 = new Nazriya();
Heroin h3 = new Kf();
System.out.println("Heroin rating :--->"+h.rating());
System.out.println("Anushka rating :--->"+h1.rating());
System.out.println("Nazsriya rating :--->"+h2.rating());
System.out.println("Kf rating :--->"+h3.rating());
}
};
In above example when you call rating() method compilation time compiler is checking method in
parent class(Heroin) but runtime Child class object are crated hence child class methods are executed.
Example :-
class Animal
{void eat(){System.out.println("animal eat");}
};
class Dog extends Animal
{void eat(){System.out.println("Dog eat");}
};
class Cat extends Animal
{ void eat(){System.out.println("cat eat");}
};
109 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
class Test
{ Animal a1,a2;
a1=new Dog(); //creates object of Dog class
a1.eat(); //compiletime:Animal runtime : Dog
a2=new Cat(); //creates object of Cat class
a2.eat(); //compiletime:Animal runtime : Cat
}
};
Example-:-method overriding vs. multilevel inheritance.
class Person
{ void eat(){System.out.println("4-idly");}
};
class Ratan extends Person
};
class RatanKid extends Ratan
};
class Test
{ Person p = new Ratan();
p.eat(); //compiletime: Person runtime:Ratan
Ratan r = new RatanKid();
r.eat(); //compiletime: Ratan runtime:RatanKid
Person p1 = new RatanKid();
p1.eat(); //compiletime: Person runtime:RatanKid
}
};
Example :- overriding vs method hiding
 static method cannot be overridden because static method bounded with class where as
instance methods are bounded with object.
 In java it is possible to override only instance methods but not static methods.
 The below example seems to be overriding but it is method hiding concept.
class Parent
{ static void m1(){System.out.println("parent m1()");}
};
{ static void m1(){System.out.println("child m1()");}
{ Parent p = new Child();
p.m1(); //output : parent m1()
}
};

toString():-
 toString() method present in Object and it is printing String representation of Object.
 toString() method return type is String object it means toString() method is returning
String object.
 Note :- whenever you are printing reference variable internally toString() method is
called.
class Object
{ public String toString()
{ return getClass().getName() + '@' + Integer.toHexString(hashCode());
}
};
Example:-
class Test
System.out.println(t.toString()); // [Object class toString() executed]
}
};
Example :- Employee class overriding toString() method
class Employee
String ename;
int eid ;
double esal;
Employee(String ename,int eid,double esal)//local variables
{ //conversion of local variables to instance variables
this.ename = ename; this.eid = eid; this.esal = esal;
}
public String toString()
{ return ename+" "+eid+" "+esal;
}
{ Employee e1 = new Employee("ratan",111,60000);
System.out.println(e1);
System.out.println(e1.toString());
}
};
employee class is not overriding toString()
Employee@530daa
employee class is overriding toString()

Final modifier:- Final is the modifier applicable for classes, methods and variables ,
Case 1:-
1) if a class is declared as final, then we cannot inherit that class it means we cannot create child
class for that final class.
Example :-
final class Parent //parent is final class child class creation not possible
{
};
class Child extends Parent //compilation error
{
};
Example :- Every method present inside a final class is always final but every variable present
inside the final class not be final variable.
final class Test
{ int a=10; //not a final variable
void m1() //final method
{ System.out.println("m1 method is final");
a=a+100;
System.out.println(a); //110
}
t.m1();
}
}
Case 2:- If a method declared as a final we can not override that method in child class.
Example :-
class Parent
{ final void marry(){}
};
{ void marry(){}
};
Compilation Error:- marry() in Child cannot override marry() in Parent
overridden method is final
Case 3:- If a variable declared as a final we can not reassign that variable if we are trying to reassign
For the local variables only one modifier is applicable that is final.
Example:-
class Test
{ final int a=100 ; //local variables
a = a+100; // [compilation error because trying to reassignment]
}
};
Compilation Error :- cannot assign a value to final variable a
112 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example :- it is not possible to make default values as a final values.

final variables always needs initialization, if you don’t initialize compiler will generate compilation error.
class Test
{ final static int a;
{ System.out.println("static variable value="+Test.a);
}
}
Compilation error:
variable a might not have been initialized

Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Garbage Collector
 Garbage collector is destroying the useless object and it is a part of the JVM.
 There are three waystomake eligible objects to garbage collector
Example-1 :- Whenever we are assigning null constants to our objects then objects are eligible for
GC(garbage collector)
class Test
Test t2=new Test();
System.out.println(t1);
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
t1=null; //t1 object is eligible for Garbage collector
t2=null; //t2 object is eligible for Garbage Collector
}
};
Example-2 :- Whenever we reassign the reference variable the objects are automatically eligible for
garbage collector.
class Test
Test t2=new Test();
t1=t2; //reassign reference variable then one object is destroyed.
}
};
Example -3:-Whenever we are creating objects inside the methods one method is completed the
objects are eligible for garbage collector.
class Test
{ void m1()
}
t.m1();
System.gc();
}
};
114 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example :-
 To call the garbage collector explicitly use gc() method it is a static method system class.
 Just before destroying object garbage collector will call finalize() method.
class Test extends Object
{ public void finalize()
{ System.out.println("object destroyed");
}
{ Test t1 = new Test();
Test t2 = new Test();
System.out.println(t1.toString());
System.out.println(t2.toString());
;;;;;;;;//using object
t1=null;
t2=null;
Systemgc();
}
};
Note :- if any exceptions raised in finalize() method those exceptions are ignored &
object is destroyed.

Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Abstraction:-
There are two types of methods in java
a. Normal methods
b. Abstract methods
Normal methods:- (component method/concrete method)

Normal method is a method which contains method declaration as well as method
implementation.
Example:-
void m1() --->method declaration
{ body; --->method implementation
}
Abstract methods:-
1) The method which is having only method declaration but not method implementations such
type of methods are called abstract Methods.
2) In java every abstract method must end with “ ; ”.
Example : - abstract void m1 (); ---- method declaration
Based on above representation of methods the classes are divided into two types
1) Normal classes.
2) Abstract classes.
Normal classes:-
Normal class is a ordinary java class it contains only normal methods if we are trying to declare at least
one abstract method that class will become abstract class.
Example:-
class Test //normal class
{ void m1() { body ; } //normal method
void m2() { body ; } //normal method
void m3() { body ; } //normal method
};
Abstract class:-
Abstract class is a java class which contains at least one abstract method(wrong definition).
If any abstract method inside the class that class must be abstract.
Example 1:- Example-2:-
class Test //abstract class class Test //abstract class
{ {
void m1 ( ) { } //normal method abstract void m1(); //abstract method
void m2( ) { } //normal method abstract void m2(); //abstract method
void m3(); //abstract method abstract void m3(); //abstract method
}; };
Abstract modifier:-
 Abstract modifier is applicable for methods and classes but not for variables.
 To represent particular class is abstract class and particular method is abstract method to the
compiler use abstract modifier.
 The abstract class contains declaration of methods it says abstract class partially implement
class hence for partially implemented classes object creation is not possible. If we are trying to
create object of abstract class compiler generate error message “class is abstract con not be
instantiated”
116 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example -1:-
 Abstract classes are partially implemented classes hence object creation is not possible.
 For the abstract classes object creation not possible, if you are trying to create object compiler will
abstract class Test //abstract class

{ abstract void m1(); //abstract method
abstract void m2(); //abstract method
abstract void m3(); //abstract method
void m4(){System.out.println("m4 method");} //normal method
t.m4();
}
};
Compilation error:- Test is abstract; cannot be instantiated
Example-2 :-
 Abstract class contains abstract methods for that abstract methods provide the
implementation in child classes.
 Provide the implementations is nothing but override the methods in child classes.
 The abstract class contains declarations but for that declarations implementation is present in
child classes.
abstract class Test

{ abstract void m1();
abstract void m2();
abstract void m3();
};
class Test1 extends Test

{ Test1 t = new Test1();
t.m1(); t.m2(); t.m3(); t.m4();
Test t1 = new Test1(); //abstract class reference variable Child class object
t1.m1(); //compile : Test runtime : Test1
t1.m2(); //compile : Test runtime : Test1
t1.m3() ; //compile : Test runtime : Test1
t1.m4() ; //compile : Test runtime : Test1
}
};
117 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example -3 :-
 Abstract class contains abstract methods for that abstract methods provide the
implementation in child classes.
 if the child class is unable to provide the implementation of all parent class abstract methods
at that situation declare that class with abstract modifier then take one more child class to
complete the implementation of remaining abstract methods.
 It is possible to declare multiple child classes but at final complete the implementation of all
methods.
abstract class Test

abstract void m2();
abstract void m3();
};
abstract class Test1 extends Test
};
abstract class Test2 extends Test1
};
class Test3 extends Test2
t.m1();
t.m2();
t.m3();
t.m4();
}
};
Example-5 :-
for the abstract methods it is possible to provide any return type(void, int, char,Boolean…..etc)
class Emp{};
abstract class Test1
{ abstract int m1(char ch);
abstract boolean m2(int a);
abstract Emp m3();
}
{ int m1(char ch)
{ System.out.println("char value is:-"+ch);
return 100;
}
};
118 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan

{ boolean m2(int a)
{ System.out.println("int value is:-"+a);
return true;
}
Emp m3()
return new Emp();
}
{ Test3 t=new Test3();
int a=t.m1('a');
System.out.println("m1() return value is:-"+a);
boolean b=t.m2(111);
System.out.println("m2() return value is:-"+b);
Emp e = t.m3();
System.out.println("m3() return value is:-"+e);
}
};
Example-6:-
It is possible to override non-abstract as a abstract method in child class.
abstract class Test
{ abstract void m1(); //m1() abstract method
void m2(){System.out.println("m2 method");} //m2() normal method
};
{ void m1(){System.out.println("m1 method");} //m1() normal method
abstract void m2(); //m2() abstract method
};
class FinalClass extends Test1
{ void m2(){System.out.println("FinalClass m2() method");}
{ FinalClass f = new FinalClass();
f.m1();
f.m2();
}
};
Example:- inside the abstract class it is possible to declare main method.

abstract class Test
{ System.out.println("this is abstract class main");
}
};
119 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example-8:-
 Constructor is used to create object (wrong definition).
 Constructor is executed during object creation to initialize values to instance variables.
 Constructors are used to write the write the functionality that functionality executed during
object creation.
 There are multiple ways to crate object in java but if we are creating object by using “new” then
only constructor executed.
Note :- in below example abstract class constructor is executed but object is not created.
Inside the abstract class it is possible to declare the constructor.
abstract class Test

{ Test()
{ System.out.println("abstrac calss con");
}
};
{ Test1()
{ super();
System.out.println("normal class con");
}
{ new Test1();
}
};
D:\>java Test1
abstrac calss con
normal class con
case 1:- [abstract method to normal method]
abstract class Test
};
};
case 2:-[normal method to abstract method]

class Test
};
};
120 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example-9:- the abstract class allows zero number of abstract method.

Definition of abstract class:-
Abstract class may contain abstract methods or may not contains abstract methods but object
creation is not possible. The below example contains zero number of abstract methods.
Ex:- HttpServlet (doesn’t contains abstract methods still it is abstract object creation not possible )
abstract class Test
{ void cm() { System.out.println("ratan"); }
void pm() { System.out.println("anushka"); }
t.cm(); t.pm();
}
};
Test.java:6: Test is abstract; cannot be instantiated
Abstraction definition :-
 The process highlighting the set of services and hiding the internal implementation is called
abstraction.
 Bank ATM Screens Hiding the internal implementation and highlighting set of services like ,
money transfer, mobile registration,…etc).
 Syllabus copy of institute just highlighting the contents of java but implementation there in
classed rooms .
 We are achieving abstraction concept by using Abstract classes & Interfaces.
121 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Encapsulation:-
 The process of binding the data and code as a single unit is called encapsulation.
Or
 The process of hiding the implementation details to user is called encapsulation. And
we are achieving this concept by declaring variables as a private modifier because it is
possible to access private members with in the class only.
Example:-
If the variables are declared as a private it is possible to access those variables only with
in the class but it possible to set(update) the data by using setter methods and it is possible to
get(read) the data by using getter methods.
The data of the private field can be accessed only by using public setter & getter method
In this way we are hiding implementation to other classes. The setter and getter methods are
user defined methods.
Syntax:-
setXXX( ) where xxx=property name
getXXX( ) where xxx=property name
The setter method return type is always void & getter method return type is always
property return type.
File-1:-
class Encapsulation
{ private int sid;
private int sname;
public void setSid(int x)
{ this.sid=sid;
}
public void setSname(String sname)
{ this.sname=sname;
}
public int getSid()
{ return sid;
}
public String getSname()
{ return sname; }
};
To access encapsulated use fallowing code:-
class Test
{ Encapsulation e=new Encapsulation();
e.setSid(100);
e.setSname("ratan");
System.out.println(e.getSid());
System.out.println(e.getSname());
}
};
122 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Main Method:- Public static void main(String[] args)

Public --- To provide access permission to the jvm declare main with public.
Static --- To provide direct access permission to the jvm declare main is static(with out
creation of object able to access main method)
Void --- don’t return any values to the JVM.
String[] args --- used to take command line arguments(the arguments passed from
command prompt)
String --- it is possible to take any type of argument.
[] --- represent possible to take any number of arguments.
Modifications on main():-
1) Modifiers order is not important it means it is possible to take public static or static
public .
Example :- public static void main(String[] args)
static public void main(String[] args)
2) the fallowing declarations are valid
string[] args String []args String args[]
Example:- static public void main(String[] args)
static public void main(String []args)
static public void main(String args[])
3) instead of args it is possible to take any variable name (a,b,c,… etc)
Example:- static public void main(String... ratan)
static public void main(String... a)
static public void main(String... anushka)
4) for 1.5 version insted of String[] args it is possible to take String… args(only three dots
represent variable argument )
Example:- static public void main(String... args)
5) the applicable modifiers on main method.
a. public b. static c. final d.strictfp e.synchronized
in above five modifiers public and static mandatory remaining three modifiers optional.
Example :- public static final strictfp synchronized void main(String... anushka)
Which of the fallowing declarations are valid:-
1. public static void main(String... a) --->valid
2. final strictfp static void mian(String[] Sravya) --->invalid
3. static public void mian(String a[]) --->valid
4. final strictfp public static main(String[] rattaiah) --->invalid
5. final strictfp synchronized public static void main(String... nandu)--->valid
Strictfp modifier:-
a. Strictfp is a modifier applicable for classes and methods.
b. If a method is declared as strictfp all floating point calculations in that method will follow
IEEE754 standard. So that we will get platform independent results.
c. If a class is declared as stictfp then every method in that class will follow IEEE754 standard so
we will get platform independent results.
Ex:- strictfp class Test { //methods/// } --->all methods fallows IEEE754
strictfp void m1() { } ---> m1() method fallows IEE754
123 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Native modifier:-
a. Native is the modifier applicable only for methods.
b. Native method is used to represent particular method implementations there in non-java code
(other languages like C,CPP) .
c. Native methods are also known as “foreign methods”.
Examples:-
public final int getPriority();
public static native java.lang.Thread currentThread();
Example:-
class Test
{ final strictfp synchronized static public void main(String...ratan)
{ System.out.println("hello ratan sir");
}
};
Example:-main method VS inheritance
Case-1 Case-2
class Parent class Parent
{ System.out.println("parent class"); { System.out.println("parent class");
} }
}; };
class Child extends Parent class Child extends Parent
{ public static void main(String[] args) {
{ System.out.println("child class"); };
}
}; D:\>java Child
D:\>Java Child Parent class
Child class
Example:-main method VS overloading

In java it is possible to overload main method but JVM is always calling String[] main method.
class Test
{ System.out.println("String[] main method");
main(100);
}
public static void main(int a)
{ main('r');
System.out.println("int main method");
}
public static void main(char ch)
{ System.out.println("char main method");
}
}
E:\>java Test
String[] main method
char main method
int main method
note:- it is not possible to override main method because main is a static method.
124 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Command Line Arguments:-

 The arguments which are passed from command prompt to application at runtime are called
command line arguments.
 The command line argument separator is space.
 In single command line argument it is possible to provide space by declaring that command line
argument in double quotes.
Example-1 :-
class Test
{ public static void main(String[] ratan)
{ System.out.println(ratan[0]+" "+ratan[1]); //printing command line arguments
System.out.println(ratan[0]+ratan[1]);
//conversion of String-int String-double
int a = Integer.parseInt(ratan[0]);
double d = Double.parseDouble(ratan[1]);
System.out.println(a+d);
}
};
D:\>java Test 100 200
100 200
100200
300.0
Example-2:-
To provide the command line arguments with spaces then take that command line argument
with in double quotes.
class Test
{ //printing command line arguments
System.out.println(ratan[0]);
System.out.println(ratan[1]);
}
};

Var-arg method:-(1.5 version)

It allows the methods to take any number of parameters to particular method.
Syntax:- Void m1(int… a){------} (only 3 dots)
The above m1() is allows any number of parameters.(0 or 1 or 2 or 3………..n)
Example:-
class Test
{ void m1(int... a)
{ System.out.println("Ratan");
}
t.m1(); //int var-arg method executed
t.m1(10); //int var-arg method executed
t.m1(10,20); //int var-arg method executed
t.m1(10,20,30); //int var-arg method executed
}
}
Example:- var-arg VS normal arguments

For java methods it is possible to provide normal arguments along with variable arguments.
class Test
{ void m1(char ch,int... a)
{ System.out.println(ch);
for (int a1:a)
{ System.out.println(a1);
}
}
t.m1('a');
t.m1('b',10);
t.m1('c',10,20);
t.m1('d',10,20,30,40);
}
}
Note :- inside the method it is possible to declare only one variable-argument and that must be last
argument otherwise the compiler will generate compilation error.
void m1(int... a) --->valid
void m2(int... a,char ch) --->invalid
void m3(int... a,boolean... b) --->invalid
void m4(double d,int... a) --->valid
void m5(char ch ,double d,int... a) --->valid
void m6(char ch ,int... a,boolean... b) --->invalid
Example:- normal-arguments vs variable-argument

If the call contains both var-arg method & normal argument method then it prints normal
argument value.

There are two types of packages in java
1) Predefined packages.
2) User defined packages.
Predefined packages:
The predefined packages are introduced by James Gosling and these packages contains
predefined classes & interfaces and these class & interfaces contains predefined variables and methods.
Example:- java.lang, java.io ,java.util…..etc
User defined packages:-
 The packages which are defined by user, and these packages contains user defined classes and
interfaces.
 Declare the package by using package keyword.
syntax : package package-name;
example : package com.sravya;
128 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
 Inside the source file it is possible to declare only one package statement and that statement
must be first statement of the source file.
Example-1:valid Example-3:Invalid
package com.sravya; import java.io.*;
import java.io.*; import java.lang.*;
import java.lang.*; package com.sravya;
Example-2:Invalid Example-4:Invalid
import java.io.*; package com.sravya;
package com.sravya; package com.tcs;
import java.io.*;
some predefined package and it’s classes & interfaces:-

Java.lang:-The most commonly required classes and interfaces to write a sample program is
encapsulated into a separate package is called java.lang package.
java
|------lang
|-- String(class)
|-- StringBuffer(class)
|-- Object(class)
|-- Runnable(interface)
|-- Cloneable(interface)
Note:- the default package in the java programming is java.lang package.
Java.io package:-The classes which are used to perform the input output operations that are present
in the java.io packages.
java
|------io
|-- FileInputStream(class)
|-- FileOutputStream(class)
|--FileReader(class)
|-- FileWriter(class)
|-- Serializable(interface)
Java.net package:-The classes which are required for connection establishment in the network that
classes are present in the java.net package.
java
|------net
|--Socket(class)
|--ServerSocket(class)
|--URL(class)
|-- SocketOption(interface)
129 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Package name coding conventions :-(not mandatory but we have to fallow)

1) The package name must reflect with organization domain name(reverse of domain name).
Domain name:- www.tcs.com
Package name:- Package com.tcs;
2) Package name must reflect with project name.
Project name :- bank
package :- Package com.tcs.bank;
3) The project name must reflect with project module name.
Domain name:- www.tcs.com
Project name:- bank
Module name:- deposit
package name:- Package com.tcs.bank.deposit;
Package com.tcs.bank.deposit;
Reverse of Project Module

keyword domain name name name
Advantages of packages:-
company name : tcs
project name : bank
module-1 Deposit module-2 withdraw

com com
|-->tcs |-->tcs
|-->bank |-->bank
|-->deposit |-->withdraw
|--->.class files |--->.class files
Module-3 moneytranfer module-4 accountinfo

com com
|-->tcs |-->tcs
|-->bank |-->bank
|-->moneytranfer |-->accountinfo
|--->.class files |--->.class files
1) It improves parallel development of the project.

2) Project maintenance will become easy.
3) It improves sharability of the project.
4) It improves readability.
5) It improves understandability.
Note :- In real time the project is divided into number of modules that each and every
module is nothing but package statement.

Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example-1:-
Step-1: write the application with package statement.
package com.sravya.java.corejava;
class Test
{ System.out.println("package first example");
}
}
class A
{ }
class B
{}
interface It
{}
Step-2: compilation process

If the source file contains the package statement then compile that application by using
fallowing command.
D:\>javac -d . Test.java
Place the directory Java source

Creates folder
Java structure in current file name
structure
compiler working folder
Step-3:- folder Structure.

com
|-->sravya
|-->java
|-->corejava
|-->Test.class
|-->A.class
|-->B.class
|-->It.class
Step-4:-execution process.
Execute the .class file by using fully qualified name(class name with complete package structure)
java com.sravya.java.corejava.Test
output : package first example
131 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example-2:-
Error-1 :-
 If it is a predefined package or user defined package Whenever we are using other package
classes then must import that package by using import statement.
 If the application required two classes (System,String) then We are able to import the classes in
two ways
o Importing all classes.
Import java.lang.*;
o Importing application required classes
Import java.lang.System;
Import java.lang.String;
In above two approaches second approach is recommended because it is importing application
required classes.
Error-2:-
 Whenever we are using other package classes then that classes must be public otherwise
Error:class is not public we are unable to access outside package.
Public modifier:-
 Public modifier is applicable for variables,methods,classes.
 All packages are able to access public members.
Default modifier:-
 It is applicable for variables,methods,classes.
 We are able to access default members only within the package and it is not possible to access
outside package .
 Default access is also known as package level access.
 The default modifier in java is default.
Error-3:-
 Whenever we are using other package class member that members also must be public.
Note : When we declare class as public the corresponding members are not public,
if we want access public class members that members also must be public.
File-1: Sravya.java
package com.sravya.states.info;
public class Sravya
{ public void ts(){System.out.println("jai telengana");}
public void ap(){System.out.println("jai andhra");}
public void others(){System.out.println("jai jai others");}
}
132 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
File-2: Tcs.java
package com.tcs.states.requiredinfo;
import com.sravya.states.info.*;
class Tcs
{ Sravya s = new Sravya();
s.ts(); s.ap(); s.others();
}
}
E:\>javac -d . Sravya.java compilation of Sravya
E:\>javac -d . Tcs.java compilation of Tcs
E:\>java com.tcs.states.requiredinfo.Tcs execution of Tcs
jai telengana
jai andhra
jai jai others
Private modifier:-
 private modifier applicable for methods and variables.
 We are able to access private members only within the class and it is not possible to access even
in child classes.
class Parent
{ private int a=10;
};
{ void m1()
{ System.out.println(a); //a variables is private Child class unable to access
}
public static void main(String[] arghs)
{ Child c = new Child();
c.m1();
}
};
error: a has private access in Parent
Note :- the most accessable modifier in java Is public & most restricted modifier in java is private.
Protected modifier:-
 Protected modifier is applicable for variables,methods.
 We are able access protected members with in the package and it is possible to access outside
packages also but only indirect child classes & it is not possible to call even in indirect child
classes.
 But in outside package we can access protected members only by using child reference. If we try
to use parent reference we will get compile time error.
A.java:-
package app1;
public class A
{ protected int fee=1000;
};
133 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
B.java:-
package app2;
import app1.*;
public class B extends A
{ B b = new B( );
System.out.println(b.fee);
}
};
Summary of variables:-
modifier Private no-modifier protected public
Same class yes yes yes yes
Same package sub class no yes yes yes
Same package non sub class no yes yes yes
Different package sub class no no yes yes
Different package non sub class no no no yes
Example:- method overriding rule-7

 In java while overriding it is possible to maintain same level(default-default) permission or
increasing order(default-public) but it is not possible to decrease(public-default) the permission.
 In java if we are trying to decrease the permission compiler will generate error message
“attempting to assign weaker access privileges”
Parent-class method child-class method

Default default (same level) -->valid
protected , public (increasing level ) --> valid
Private (decreasing level) --> invalid
Public public (same level) --> valid

Default,private,protected(decreasing) -->invalid
Protected protected(same level) --> valid

Public(increasing permission) -->valid
Default,private (decreasing level) -->invalid
Case 1:- same level [default-default]

class Parent
};
};
Case 2:- increasing permission [protected-public]

class Parent
{ protected void m1(){System.out.println("m1 method");}
134 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
};
{ public void m1(){System.out.println("m1 method");}
};
Case3 :- decreasing permission [public-protected]

class Parent
};
{ protected void m1(){System.out.println("m1 method");}
};
Example :-
Test.java:-
package app1;
public class Test
{ public void m1() { System.out.println("app1.Test class m1()"); }
}
X.java:-
package app1.corejava;
public class X
{ public void m1() { System.out.println("app1.core.X class m1()"); }
}
Y.java:-
package app1.corejava.advjava;
public class Y
{ public void m1() { System.out.println("app1.corejava.advjava.Y class m1()"); }
}
Z.java:-
Package app1.corejava.advjava.structs;
public class Z
{ public void m1() { System.out.println("app1.corejava.advjava.structs.Z class m1()"); }
}
Ratan.java:-
import app1.Test;
import app1.corejava.X;
import app1.corejava.advjava.Y;
import app1.corejava.advjava.structs.Z;
class Ratan
{ Test t = new Test(); t.m1();
X x = new X(); x.m1();
Y y = new Y(); y.m1();
Z z = new Z(); z.m1();
}
};
135 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Static import:-
1. This concept is introduced in 1.5 version.
2. if we are using the static import it is possible to call static variables and static methods of a
particular class directly to the application without using class name.
a. import static java.lang.System.*;
The above line is used to call all the static members of System class directly into application
without using class name.
Ex:-without static mport

import java.lang.*; Ex :- with static import
class Test import static java.lang.System.*;
{ public static void main(String[] args) class Test
{ { public static void main(String[] args)
System.out.println("Hello World!"); {
System.out.println("Hello World!"); out.println("ratan world");
System.out.println("Hello World!"); out.println("ratan world");
} out.println("ratan world");
} }
};
Example:-
package com.dss.java.corejava;
public class Sravya
{ public static int fee=1000;
public static void course()
{ System.out.println("core java");
}
public static void duration()
{ System.out.println("1-month");
}
public static void trainer()
}
};
without static import with static import
package com.tcs.course.coursedetails; package com.tcs.course.coursedetails;
import com.dss.java.corejava.*; import static com.dss.java.corejava.Sravya.*;
class Tcs class Tcs
{ System.out.println(Sravya.fee); { System.out.println(fee);
Sravya.course(); course();
Sravya.duration(); duration();
Sravya.trainer(); trainer();
} }
} }
136 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example:-
When you import main package we are able to access only package classes, it is not possible to
access sub package classes, if we want sub package classes must import sub packages also.
com
|-->sravya
|--->A.class
|--->B.class
|--->C.class
|--->ratan
|--->D.class
In above example when we import com.sravya.* it is possible to access only three classes(A,B,C) but it is
not possible to access sub package classes (ratan package D class) if we want sub package classes must
import sub package(import com.sravya.ratan.*).
File-1: A.java
package jav.corejava;
public class A Package structure:-
{ public void m1() jav
{System.out.println("core java World!"); |-->corejava
} |--->A.class
}
File-2: B.java:
package jav.corejava.advjava; jav
public class B |-->corejava
{ public void m1() |--->A.class
{System.out.println("Adv java World!"); |--->advjava
} |--->B.class
}
File-3: C.java:-
package jav.corejava.advjava.structs; jav
public class C |-->corejava
{ public void m1() |--->A.class
{System.out.println("Structs World!"); |--->advjava
} |--->B.class
} |--->structs
File-4:- MainTest.java |--->C.class
Package structure :-
import jav.corejava.A;
import jav.corejava.advjava.B;
import jav.corejava.advjava.structs.C;
class MainTest
{ new A().m1();
new B().m1();
new C().m1();
}
}
137 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example :-
in java it is not possible to use predefined package names as a user defined packages. If we
are trying to use predefined package names as a user defined packages at runtime JVM will generate
securityException.
package java.lang;
class Test
{ System.out.println("Ratan World!");
}
}
class A
{
};
D:\DP>javac -d . Test.java
D:\DP>java java.lang.Test
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.SecurityException: Prohibited package name: java.lang
Applicable modifiers on constructors:-

1) Public
2) Private
3) Protected
4) default
Private constructors:-
class Parent
{ private Parent(){ } //private constructor
}
{ Child()
{super();} //we are calling parent class private constructor it is not possible
};
D:\>javac Test.java
Test.java:6: Parent() has private access in Parent
we are achieving singleton class creation by using private constructors in java:-

 when we declare constructor with private modifier we can’t create object outside of the class.
 Singleton class allows to create only one object of particular class and we are achieving singleton
class creation by using private constructors.
 In some scenarios it is appropriate to have exactly one instance of class like,
o Window manager
o File systems
o Project manager
o Admin
These type of objects are called singleton objects.
file-1:-
package com.dss.st;

Interfaces
1. Interface is also one of the type of class it contains only abstract methods. And Interfaces not
alternative for abstract class it is extension for abstract classes.
2. The interface allows to declare only abstract methods and these methods are by default public &
abstract if we are declaring or not.
3. The interface is highlighting set of functionalities but implementations are hiding.
4. For the interfaces also compiler will generates .class files after compilation.
5. Inside the source file it is possible to declare any number of interfaces. And we are declaring the
interfaces by using interface keyword.
Syntax:- Interface interface-name
interface It1
{ *****
}
 if you don’t no the anything about implementation just we have the requirement specification
then declare that requirements by using interface.
 If u know the implementation but not completely then we should go for abstract classes.
 if you know the implementation completely then we should go for concrete classes.
Both examples are same

Interface it1 abstract interface it1
{ {
Void m1(); public abstract void m1();
} }
Note: - If we are declaring or not each and every interface method by default public abstract. And the
interfaces are by default abstract hence for the interfaces object creation is not possible.
Example-1 :-
 Interface constrains abstract methods and by default these methods are “public abstract “.
 Interface contains abstract method for these methods provide the implementation in the
implementation classes.
 Implementation class is nothing but the class which implements particular interface.
 While providing implementation of interface methods that implementation methods must be
public methods otherwise compiler generate error message “attempting to assign weaker
access privileges”.
interface it1
{ Void m1(); //abstract method by default [public abstract]
Void m2(); //abstract method by default [public abstract]
Void m3(); //abstract method by default [public abstract]
}
Class Test implements it1 //Test is implementation class of It1 interface
{ Public void m1() //implementation method must be public
{ System.out.println(“m1-method implementation ”); }
Public void m2()
140 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
{ System.out.println(“m2-method implementation”); }
Public void m3()
{ System.out.println(“m3 –method implementation”); }
Public static void main(String[] args)
t.m1();
t.m2();
t.m3();
}
}
Example :-
interface It1 //abstract
{ void m1(); //public abstract
void m2();
void m3();
}
class Test implements It1
public void m2(){System.out.println("m2 method");}
public void m3(){System.out.println("m3 method");}

t.m1();
t.m2();
t.m3();
It1 i = new Test();

i.m1(); //compile : It1 runtime : Test
}
};
Example-2:-
 Interface contains abstract method for these methods provide the implementation in the
implementation class.
 If the implementation class is unable to provide the implementation of all abstract methods then
declare implementation class with abstract modifier & complete the remaining abstract method
implementation in next created child classes.
 If the child class also unable to provide implementation then declare the child class with abstract
modifier & take one more child class to complete the implementations.
 In java it is possible to take any number of child classes but at final complete the
implementation of all abstract methods.

void m2();
void m3();
}

void m2(); //abstract method by default [public abstract]
void m3(); //abstract method by default [public abstract]

Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example-1:-
 Inside the interfaces it is possible to declare variables and methods.
 By default interface methods are public abstract and by default interface variables are public
static final.
 The final variables are replaced with their values at compilation time only.
Application before compilations:- (.java file)

interface It1 //interface declaration
{ int a=10; //interface variables
void m1(); //interface method
}
{ public void m1()
}
t.m1();
}
};
Application after compilation:-(.class file)
interface It1
{ public abstract void m1(); // compiler generate public abstract
public static final int a = 10; //public static final generated by compiler
}
{ public void m1()
System.out.println(10); //a is final variable hence it replaced at compilation time only
}
t.m1();

Interfaces vs. inheritance :-

Example :-
interface it1 //it contains 2 methods m1() & m2()
{ public abstract void m1();
public abstract void m2();
}
interface it2 extends it1 // it contains 4 methods m1() & m2() & m3() & m4()
}
interface it3 extends it2 // it contains 6 methods m1() & m2() & m3() & m4() & m5() & m6
}
interface it4 extends it3 // it contains 7 methods m1() & m2() & m3() & m4() & m5() & m6 & m7()
}
Case 1:
class Test implements it1
{ provide the implementation of 2 methods m1() & m2()
};
Case 2:
{ provide the implementation of 4 methods m1() & m2() & m3() & m4()
};
Case 3:-
{ provide the implementation of 6 methods m1() & m2() & m3() & m4() & m5() & m6()
};
Case 4:-
{ provide the implementation of 7 methods m1() & m2() & m3() & m4() & m5() & m6() & m7()
};
Case 6:-
class Test implements it1,it2 //one class is able to implements multiple interfaces
{ provide the implementation of 4 methods m1() & m2() & m3() & m4()
};
Case 7:-
class Test implements it1,it3
{ provide the implementation of 6 methods m1() & m2() & m3() & m4() & m5() & m6
};
Case 8:-
};
Case 9:-
{ provide the implementation of 7 methods m1() & m2() & m3() & m4() & m5() & m6 & m7()
148 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
};
Case 10:-
class Test implements it1,it2,it3
};
Case 11:-
class Test implements it1,it2,it3,it4
{ provide the implementation of 7 methods m1() & m2() & m3() & m4() & m5() & m6 & m7()
};
Nested interfaces:-
Example :- declaring interface inside the class is called nested interface.
class A
{ interface it1 //nested interface declared in A class
{ void add(); }
};
class Test implements A.it1
{ public void add()
{ System.out.println("add method");
}
{ Test t=new Test(); t.add();
}
};
Example :- it is possible to declare interfaces inside abstract class also.
abstract class A
interface it1 //nested interface declared in A class
{ void m2(); }
};
class Test implements A.it1
{ public void m1()
}
public void m2()
}
t.m1(); t.m2();
}
};
Ex:- declaring interface inside the another interface is called nested interface.
interface it2
{ void m1();
interface it1
{ void m2(); }
};

Marker interface :-
 An interface that has no members (methods and variables) is known as marker interface or
tagged interface or ability interface.
 In java whenever our class is implementing marker interface our class is getting some
capabilities that are power of marker interface. We will discuss marker interfaces in detail in
later classes.
Ex:- serializable , Cloneable , RandomAccess…etc
Note: - user defined empty interfaces are not a marker interfaces only, predefined empty interfaces
are marker interfaces.
Cloneable:-
1) The process of creating exactly duplicate object is called cloning.
2) We can create a duplicate object only for the cloneable classes .
3) We can create cloned object by using clone()
4) The main purpose of the cloning is to maintain backup.
class Test implements Cloneable

{ int a=10,b=20;
public static void main(String[] args) throws CloneNotSupportedException
{ Test t1 = new Test();//creates object of Test class
Test t2 = (Test)t1.clone();//duplicate object of Test class
System.out.println(t1.a);
System.out.println(t1.b);
t1.b=555;
t1.a=444;
t1.b=333;
System.out.println(t1.b);
//if we want initial values use duplicate object
System.out.println(t2.a);//10
System.out.println(t2.b);//20
}

Adaptor class:-
It is a intermediate class between the interface and user defined class. And it contains empty
implementation of interface methods.
Example:-
interface It // interface
{ void m1():
void m2();
;;;;;;;;
void m100();
}
class X implements It //adaptor class
{ public void m1(){}
public void m2(){}
;;;;;;;;
public void m100{}
};
//user defined class implementing interface
class Test implements It
{ must provide 100 methods impl
};
//user defined class extending Adaptor class(X)
class Test extends X
{ override required methods because already X contins empty implementions
};

String manipulations
1) Java.lang.String
2) Java.lang.StringBuffer
3) Java.lang.StringBuilder
4) Java.util.StringTokenizer
Java.lang.String:-
String is used to represent group of characters or character array enclosed with in the double quotes.
class Test
{ String str="ratan";
System.out.println(str);
String str1=new String("ratan");

System.out.println(str1);
char[] ch={'r','a','t','a','n'};
String str3=new String(ch);
char[] ch1={'a','r','a','t','a','n','a'};
String str4=new String(ch1,1,5);
byte[] b={65,66,67,68,69,70};
String str5=new String(b);
byte[] b1={65,66,67,68,69,70};
String str6=new String(b1,2,4);
}
}
Case 1:- String vs StringBuffe

String & StringBuffer both classes are final classes present in java.lang package.
Case 2:-String vs StringBuffer

We are able to create String object in two ways.
1) Without using new operator String str=”ratan”;
2) By using new operator String str = new String(“ratan”);
We are able to create StringBuffer object only one approach by using new operator.
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer(“sravyainfotech”);

Creating a string object without using new Creating a string object by using new operator

 String str1=”rattaiah” ;  String str1=new String(“rattaiah”);

String str2=”Sravya”; String str2 = new String(“anu”);
String str3=”Sravya”; String str3 = new String(“rattaiah”);

then it won’t create new object
that reference variable pointing
to existing object.
o If the previous objects are not
available then JVM will create
new object.
 Heap memory allows duplicate objects.
 SCP area does not allow duplicate
objects.
Example:-
class Test
{ //two approaches to create a String object
String str1 = "ratan";
String str2 = new String("anu");
//one approach to create StringBuffer Object (by using new operator)

StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer("ratansoft");
System.out.println(sb);
}
}
154 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
== operator :-
 It is comparing reference type and it returns Boolean value as a return value.
 If two reference variables are pointing to same object then it returns true otherwise false.
Example:-
class Test
{ Test t1 = new Test();
Test t2 = new Test();
Test t3 = t1;
System.out.println(t1==t2); //false
System.out.println(t1==t3); //true
String str1="ratan";
System.out.println(str1==str2); //true
String s1 = new String("anu");

String s2 = new String("anu");
System.out.println(s1==s2); //false
StringBuffer sb1 = new StringBuffer("sravya");

StringBuffer sb2 = new StringBuffer("sravya");
System.out.println(sb1==sb2); //flase
}
}
155 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Case : toString()
 toString( ) method present in object class it returns a string representation of object(class-
name@hashcode).
 String is child class of Object and it is overriding toString() to return content of the String object.
 StringBuffer is child class of Object and it is overriding toString() to return content of the
StringBuffer object.
Note :- whenever we are printing any type of reference variable in java internally it is calling
toString() method .
class Object
{ public java.lang.String toString()
{ return getClass().getName() + '@' + Integer.toHexString(hashCode()); }
}
class String extends Object
{ //overriding method
public java.lang.String toString()
{ return "content of String"; }
};
class StringBuffer extends Object
{ //overriding method
public java.lang.String toString()
{ return "content of String"; }
};
Example:-
class Test
{ //object class toString() executed
System.out.println(t.toString());
//String class toString() executed

String str="ratan";
System.out.println(str.toString());
//StringBuffer class toString() executed

StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer("anu");
System.out.println(sb.toString());
}
};
In above example when we call toString() method on Test class reference type then first it will
check toString() in Test class since not available it will execute Object class toString().
D:\>java Test
Test@530daa Test@530daa ratan ratan anu anu

Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Case 3:- immutability vs mutability

String is immutability class it means once we are creating String objects it is not possible to
perform modifications on existing object. (String object is fixed object)
StringBuffer is a mutability class it means once we are creating StringBuffer objects on that
existing object it is possible to perform modification.
Example :-
class Test
{ //immutability class (modifications on existing content not allowed)
String str="ratan";
str.concat("soft");
System.out.println(str); //ratan
//mutability class (modifications on existing content possible)

StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer("anu");
sb.append("soft");
System.out.println(sb); //anusoft
}
}
Concat( ) :-
 Concat() method is combining two String objects and it is returning new String object.
public java.lang.String concat(java.lang.String);
Example :-
class Test
{ String str="ratan";
String str1 = str.concat("soft"); //concat() method return String object.
}
}
Creation of user defined immutability class:-

 Once we create the object, it is not allowing modifications that behavior is called immutability.
 Java contains number of immutable classes like String,wrapper classes(Integer,Long,Float…etc).
 We can achieve immutability nature of the class by using fallowing properties,
1) Declare the fields final & private
Once we declare the fields private it is not possible to access outside class & if we declare
final modifications are not allowed.
2) Declare the class with final
Once we declare class with final it is not possible to create child classes it prevents
method overriding in sub-classes.
3) Set the data by using parameterized constructor
Set the data to properties by using constructor but don’t use setter methods because
setter method meant for data change in object.
157 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
File-1:Emp.java
class Emp
{ private final String ename;
Emp(String ename)
{ this.ename=ename;
}
public String getName()
{ return ename;
}
};
File 2:Test.java
class Test
{ Emp e = new Emp("ratan");
System.out.println(e.getName());
}
}
In above example Emp class immutable class because,
a. Emp class properties are final we are unable to change the value after creating object.
b. Emp class if final we are unable create sub-class & it is not possible to override the methods.
c. We are using constructor it assign the values only once.
d. There is no setter method hence we have no option to change the value of variable.
Case 4:-
Internal implementation equals() method:-
 equals( ) method present in object used for reference comparison & return Boolean value.
o If two reference variables are pointing to same object returns true otherwise false.
 String is child class of object and it is overriding equals( ) methods used for content comparison.
o If two objects content is same then returns true otherwise false.
 StringBuffer class is child class of object and it is not overriding equals() method hence it is using
parent class(Object) equals() method used for reference comparison.
o If two reference variables are pointing to same object returns true otherwise false.
class Object
{ public boolean equals(java.lang.Object)
{ // reference comparison;
}
};
class String extends Object
{ //String class is overriding equals() method
public boolean equals(java.lang.Object);
{ //content comparison;
}
};
class StringBuffer extends Object
{ //not overriding hence it is using parent class equals() method
//reference comparison;
};
158 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example :-
class Test
{ Test(String str) { }
{ Test t1 = new Test("ratan");
Test t2 = new Test("ratan");
//Object class equals() method executed (reference comparison)
System.out.println(t1.equals(t2));
String str1 = new String("Sravya");

//String class equals() method executed (content comparison)
System.out.println(str1.equals(str2));
StringBuffer sb1 = new StringBuffer("anu");

StringBuffer sb2 = new StringBuffer("anu");
//StringBuffer class equals() executed (reference comparison)
System.out.println(sb1.equals(sb2));
}
}
== operator vs equals() :-
 In above example we are completed equals() method.
 == operator used to check reference variables & returns boolean ,if two reference variables are
pointing to same object returns true otherwise false.
class Test
{ Test(String str){}
{ Test t1 = new Test("ratan");
Test t2 = new Test("ratan");
System.out.println(t1==t2); //reference comparison false
System.out.println(t1.equals(t2)); //reference comparison false
String str1="anu";
String str2="anu";
System.out.println(str1==str2); //reference comparison true
System.out.println(str1.equals(str2)); //content comparison true

System.out.println(str3==str4); //reference comparison false
System.out.println(str3.equals(str4)); //content comparison true
StringBuffer sb1 = new StringBuffer("students");

StringBuffer sb2 = new StringBuffer("students");
System.out.println(sb1==sb2); //reference comparison false
System.out.println(sb1.equals(sb2)); //reference comparison false
}
}

Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example :- String identity vs String equality
class Test
{ String str1 = "hello";
String str2 = "hello";
String str3= new String("hello");
//identity checking
System.out.println(str1==str2); //true
System.out.println(str1==str3); //false
System.out.println(str1==str3); //false
//equality checking
System.out.println(str1.equals(str2)); //true
}
}
Java.lang.String class methods:-

1) CompareTo() & compareToIgnoreCase():-
 By using compareTo() we are comparing two strings character by character, such type of
checking is called lexicographically checking or dictionary checking.
 compareTo() is return type is integer and it returns three values
o if the two strings are equal then it return zero.
o If the first string first character Unicode value is bigger than second string first character
Unicode value then it return +ve value.
o If the first string first character Unicode value is smaller than second string first
character Unicode value then it return +ve value.
compareTo() method comparing two string with case sensitive.

compareToIgnoreCase() method comparing two strings character by character by ignoring case.
class Test
{ public static void main(String... ratan)
{ String str1="ratan";
String str2="Sravya";
System.out.println(str1.compareTo(str2)); //14
System.out.println(str1.compareTo(str3)); //0
System.out.println(str2.compareTo(str1)); //-13
System.out.println(“ratan”.compareTo(“RATAN”)); //+ve
System.out.println(“ratan”.compareToIgnoreCase(“RATAN”));//0
}
};

Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Difference between length( ) method and length variable:-

 length variable used to find length of the Array.
 length() is method used to find length of the String.
Example :- int [] a={10,20,30};
System.out.println(a.length); //3
String str="rattaiah";
System.out.println(str.length()); //8
cahrAt(int) & split() & trim():-

charAt(int):-By using above method we are able to extract the character from particular index position.
public char charAt(int);
Split(String):- By using split() method we are dividing string into number of tokens.
public java.lang.String[] split(java.lang.String);
trim():- trim() is used to remove the trail and leading spaces this method always used for memory saver.
public java.lang.String trim();
class Test
{ //cahrAt() method
String str="ratan";
System.out.println(str.charAt(1));
//System.out.println(str.charAt(10)); StringIndexOutOfBoundsException
char ch="ratan".charAt(2);
//split() method
String s="hi rattaiah how r u";
String[] str1=s.split(" ");
for(String str2 : str1)
{ System.out.println(str2);
}
//trim()
String ss=" ratan ";
System.out.println(ss.length());//7
System.out.println(ss.trim());//ratan
System.out.println(ss.trim().length());//5
}
}
replace() & toUpperCase() & toLowerCase():-

public java.lang.String replace(Stirng str,String str1):-
public java.lang.String replace(char, char);
replace() method used to replace the String or character.
public java.lang.String toLowerCase();
public java.lang.String toUpperCase();
The above methods are used to convert lower case to upper case & upper case to lower case.
161 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example:-
class Test
{ String str="rattaiah how r u";
System.out.println(str.replace('a','A')); //rAttAiAh
System.out.println(str.replace("how","who")); //rattaiah how r u
String str1="Sravya software solutions";

System.out.println(str1.replace("software","hardware"));// Sravya hardware solutions
String str="ratan HOW R U";

System.out.println(str.toUpperCase());
System.out.println(str.toLowerCase());
System.out.println("RATAN".toLowerCase());
System.out.println("soft".toUpperCase());
}
}
endsWith() & startsWith() & substring():-

 endsWith() is used to find out if the string is ending with particular character/string or not.
 startsWith() used to find out the particular String starting with particular character/string or not.
public boolean startsWith(java.lang.String);
public boolean endsWith(java.lang.String);
 substring() used to find substring in main String.
public java.lang.String substring(int); int = starting index
public java.lang.String substring(int, int); int=starting index to int =ending index
while printing substring() it includes starting index & it excludes ending index.
Example:-
class Test
{ String str="rattaiah how r u";
System.out.println(str.endsWith("u")); //true
System.out.println(str.endsWith("how")); //false
System.out.println(str.startsWith("d")); //false
System.out.println(str.startsWith("r")); //true
String s="ratan how r u";
System.out.println(s.substring(2)); //tan how r u
System.out.println(s.substring(1,7)); //atan h
System.out.println("ratansoft".substring(2,5)); //tan
}
}

StringBuffer class methods:-

reverse() & delete() & deleteCharAt():-
class Test
{ StringBuffer sb=new StringBuffer("rattaiah");
System.out.println(sb.delete(1,3));
System.out.println(sb.deleteCharAt(1));
System.out.println(sb.reverse());
}
}
Append():-
class Test
{ StringBuffer sb=new StringBuffer("rattaiah");
String str=" salary ";
int a=60000;
sb.append(str);
sb.append(a);
}
};
Insert():-
By using above method we are able to insert the string any location of the existing string.
class Test
{ StringBuffer sb=new StringBuffer("ratan");
sb.insert(0,"hi ");
}
}
replace():-
class Test
{ StringBuffer sb=new StringBuffer("hi ratan hi");
sb.replace(0,2,"oy");
System.out.println("after replaceing the string:-"+sb);
}
}

Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Java.lang.StringBuilder:-
1) Introduced in jdk1.5 version.
2) StringBuilder is identical to StringBuffer except for one important difference.
3) Every method present in the StringBuilder is not Synchronized means that is not thread safe.
4) multiple threads are allow to operate on StringBuilder methods hence the performance of the
application is increased.
StringTokenizer:-
import java.util.*;
class Test
{ String str="hi ratan w r u wt bout anushka";
StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(str);//split the string with by default (space symbol)
while (st.hasMoreElements())
{ System.out.println(st.nextElement());
}
//used our string to split giver String

String str1 = "hi,rata,mf,sdfsdf,ara";
StringTokenizer st1 = new StringTokenizer("hi,rata,mf,sdfsdf,ara",",");
while (st1.hasMoreElements())
{ System.out.println(st1.nextElement());

Wrapper classes
 Java is an Object oriented programming language so represent everything in the form of
the object, but java supports 8 primitive data types these all are not part of object.
 To represent 8 primitive data types in the form of object form we required 8 java classes
these classes are called wrapper classes.
 All wrapper classes present in the java.lang package and these all classes are immutable
classes.
Wrapper classes hierarchy:-
Object
Number Character Boolean
Byte Short Integer Long Float Double
Wrapper classes constructors:-

Integer i = new Integer(10);
Integer i1 = new Integer("100");
Float f1= new Float(10.5);
Float f1= new Float(10.5f);
Float f1= new Float("10.5");
Character ch = new Character('a');
datatypes wrapper-class constructors
byte Byte byte,String
short Short short,String
int Integer int,String
long Long long,String
float Float double,float,String
double Double double,String
char Character char
boolean Boolean boolean,String
Note :- To create wrapper objects all most all wrapper classes contain two constructors but
Float contains three constructors(float,double,String) & char contains one constructor(char).
toString():-
 toString() method present in Object class it returns class-name@hashcode.
 String,StringBuffer classes are overriding toString() method it returns content of the objects.
 All wrapper classes overriding toString() method to return content of the wrapper class objects.
165 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example :-
class Test
{ Integer i1 = new Integer(100);
System.out.println(i1);
System.out.println(i1.toString());

Integer i3 = new Integer("ten");//java.lang.NumberFormatException

}
}
In above example for the integer constructor we are passing “1000” value in the form of String it is
automatically converted into Integer format.
In above example for the integer constructor we are passing “ten” in the form of String but this String is
unable to convert into integer format it generate exception java.lang.NumberFormatException.
Example:- conversion of wrapper to String by using toString() method

class Test
{ Integer i1 = new Integer(100);
System.out.println(i1+i2);//1100
//conversion [wrapper object - String]
String str1 = i1.toString();
String str2 = i2.toString();
System.out.println(str1+str2); //1001000
}
}
Example:-
 In java we are able to call toString() method only on reference type but not primitive type.
 If we are calling toString() method on primitive type then compiler generate error message.
class Test
{ Integer i1 = Integer.valueOf(100);
int a=100;
//System.out.println(a.toString()); error:-int cannot be dereferenced
}
}
166 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
valueOf():-
in java we are able to create wrapper object in two ways.
a) By using constructor approach
b) By using valueOf() method
 valueOf() method is used to create wrapper object just it is alternate to constructor approach
and it a static method present in wrapper classes.
Example:-
class Test
{ //constructor approach to create wrapper object
Integer i1 = new Integer(100);

//valueOf() method to create Wrapper object

Integer a1 = Integer.valueOf(10);
System.out.println(a1);
Integer a2 = Integer.valueOf("1000");
}
}
Example :- conversion of primitive to String.

class Test
{ int a=100;
int b=200;
//primitive to String object

String str1 = String.valueOf(a);
String str2 = String.valueOf(b);
System.out.println(str1+str2);
}
}
167 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
XxxValue():- it is used to convert wrapper object into correspondingprimitive value.

Example:-
class Test
{ //valueOf() method to create Wrapper object
Integer a2 = Integer.valueOf("1000");
//xxxValue() [wrapper object into primitive value]

int x1 = a1.intValue();
byte x2 = a1.byteValue();
double x3 = a1.doubleValue();
System.out.println("int value="+x1);
System.out.println("byte value="+x2);
System.out.println("double value="+x3);
}
}
parseXXX():- it is used to convert String into corresponding primitive value & it is a static method present
in wrapper classes.
Example :-
class Test
{ String str1="100";
String str2="100";
System.out.println(str1+str2);
//parseXXX() converion of String to primitive type
int a1 = Integer.parseInt(str1);
float a2 = Float.parseFloat(str2);
System.out.println(a1+a2);
}
}
1) primitive ----->Wrapper Object

Integer i = Integer.valueOf(100);
2) wrapper object ----> primitive
byte b = i.byteValue();
3) String value ----> primitive
String str="100";
int a = Integer.parseInt(str);
4) primitive valu ----> String Object
int a=100;
int b=200;
String s1 = String.valueOf(a);
String s2 = String.valueOf(b);
168 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
System.out.println(s1+s2);//100200
5) String value ---->Wrapper object
Integer i = Integer.valueOf("1000");
6) wrapper object --->String object
String s = i.toString();
Autoboxing and Autounboxing:-(introduced in the 1.5 version)

 Up to 1.4 version to convert primitive/String into Wrapper object we are having two approaches
o Constructor approach
o valueOf() method
 Automatic conversion of primitive to wrapper object is called autoboxing.
 Automatic conversion of wrapper object to primitive is called autounboxing.
Example:-
class Test
{ //autoboxing [primitive - wrapper object]
Integer i = 100;
System.out.println(i.toString());
//autounboxing [wrapper object - primitive]

int a = new Integer(100);
}
}
Automatic conversion of the primitive to wrapper and wrapper to the primitive:-

AutoBoxing
Primitive Wrapper object
/String
Autounboxing

Factory method:-
 One java class method returns same class object or different class object is called factory
method.
 There are three types of factory methods in java.
o Instance factory method.
o Static factory method.
o Pattern factory method.
 The factory is called by using class name is called static factory method.
 The factory is called by using reference variable is called instance factory method.
 One java class method is returning different class object is called pattern factory method.
Example:-
class Test
{ //static factory method
Integer i = Integer.valueOf(100);
Runtime r = Runtime.getRuntime();
System.out.println(r);
//instance factory method

String str="ratan";
String str1 = str.concat("soft");
String s1="sravyainfotech";
String s2 = s1.substring(0,6);
System.out.println(s2);
//pattren factory method

String ss = a1.toString();
System.out.println(ss);
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer("ratan");

String sss = sb.toString();
System.out.println(sss);
}

There are three streams are automatically created
 System.in standard input stream
 System.out standard output stream
 System.error standard error stream

class Test
{ public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException
{ System.out.println("output stream");
System.err.println("error stream");
int a = System.in.read();
System.out.println((char)a);
}
}
I/O Streams:-
 Byte Streams handle I/O of raw binary data.
 Character Streams handle I/O of character data, automatically handling translation to and from
the local character set.
 Buffered Streams optimize input and output by reducing the number of calls to the native API.
 Scanning and Formatting allows a program to read and write formatted text.
 I/O from the Command Line describes the Standard Streams and the Console object.
 Data Streams handle binary I/O of primitive data type and String values.
 Object Streams handle binary I/O of objects.

I/O Streams:-
An I/O stream represents input source or an output destination. A stream represent many kind of
source and destination like disk files & devices & memory arrays.
Streams support different kind of data
 Simple bytes.
 Primitive data types
 Localized characters
 Objects …..etc
Stream is a communication channel between source and destination & A stream is a sequence of data.
Input stream:- Program uses Input stream to read the data from a source one item at a time.
Output stream:- Program uses output stream to write the data to a destination one item at a time.

Example :- creation of physical File

import java.io.*;
class Test
{ File f = new File("anu.txt");
boolean b = f.createNewFile();
if (b)
{ System.out.println("File is created successfully");
}
else
{ System.out.println("File is already existed in location");
}
}
}
Example : creation of directory

iimport java.io.*;
class Test
{ //creation of File
File f = new File("anu.txt");
System.out.println(f.exists());
f.createNewFile();
System.out.println(f.exists());
//creation of directory
File f1 = new File("durga");
System.out.println(f1.exists());
f1.mkdir();
System.out.println(f1.exists());
//creation of file inside the directory (directory must present)

File f2 = new File("durga","durga.txt");
f2.createNewFile();
}
}

Byte streams:-
Program uses byte stream to perform input & output of byte data. All byte stream classes
developed based on InputStream & OutputStream.
Program uses byte stream to perform input and output of 8-bit bytes.
To demonstrate how the byte stream works file I/O provided two main classes
 FileInputStream
o It is used to read the data from source one item at a time.
o To read the data from source use read() method of FileInputStream class.
public int read() throws java.io.IOException;
read() method returns first character Unicode value in the form of integer value.
 FileOutputStream
o It is used to write the data to destination one item at a time.
o To write the data to destination use write() method of FileOutputStream class.
public void write(int unicode) throws java.io.IOException;
write() method is taking Unicode value of the character as a parameter.
Steps to design application:-

Step1 :- create the channel.
Step 2:- read the data from source file.
Step 3:- store the data in some variable temporarily.
Step 4:- check the stream is ended or data (data flow completed or not).
Step 5:- write the data to destination.
Step 6:- close the streams.
Example :-
import java.io.*;
class Test
{ public static void main(String[] args)throws FileNotFoundException,IOException
{ //Byte oriented channel creation
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream("abc.txt");
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("xyz.txt");
int c;
while((c=fis.read())!=-1)
{ System.out.print((char)c);
fos.write(c);
}
System.out.println("read() & write operatoins are completed");
//stream closing operations
fis.close();
fos.close();
}
}

Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
While working with streams we will get two exceptions mainly FileNotFoundException ,
IOException & these two exceptions are checked exceptions so must handle these exception by using try-
catch blocks or throws keyword.
Limitation of byte streams:-

 It reads the data only one byte at a time hence it takes more time to copy.
 Must close the streams always.
 These streams always hitting hard disk to retrieve the data it reduces the performance.
Character streams:-
Program uses character stream to perform input & output of character data. All character
stream classes developed based on Reader & Writer classes.
To demonstrate how the character stream works file I/O provided two main classes
 FileReader
o It is used to read the data from source one item at a time.
o To read the data from source use read() method of FileInputStream class.
public int read() throws java.io.IOException;
read() method returns first character Unicode value in the form of integer value.
 FileWriter
o It is used to write the data to destination one item at a time.
o To write the data to destination use write() method of FileOutputStream class.
175 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
public void write(int unicode) throws java.io.IOException;

write() method is taking Unicode value of the character as a parameter.
Example :-
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.FileWriter;
import java.io.IOException;
public class Test
{ FileReader inputStream = null;
FileWriter outputStream = null;
try {
inputStream = new FileReader("abc.txt");
outputStream = new FileWriter("characteroutput.txt");
int c;
while ((c = inputStream.read()) != -1)
{ outputStream.write(c);
}
}
finally
{ if (inputStream != null)
{ inputStream.close();
}
if (outputStream != null)
{ outputStream.close();
}
}
}
}
Note : In CopyCharacters, the int variable holds a character value in its last 16 bits; in CopyBytes, the int
variable holds a byte value in its last 8 bits.
CopyCharacters is very similar to CopyBytes. The most important difference is that
CopyCharacters uses FileReader and FileWriter for input and output in place of FileInputStream and
FileOutputStream. Notice that both CopyBytes and CopyCharacters use an int variable to read to and
write from. However, in CopyCharacters, the int variable holds a character value in its last 16 bits; in
CopyBytes, the int variable holds a byte value in its last 8 bits.
176 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
CharArrayWriter:- It is used to write the data to multiple files & this call implements
Appendable interface.
In below example we are adding same data to four files.
import java.io.*;
class Test
{ CharArrayWriter ch = new CharArrayWriter();
FileReader fr = new FileReader("abc.txt");
int a;
while((a=fr.read())!=-1)
{ ch.write(a);
}
FileWriter fw1 = new FileWriter("a.txt");
FileWriter fw2 = new FileWriter("b.txt");
FileWriter fw3 = new FileWriter("c.txt");
FileWriter fw4 = new FileWriter("d.txt");
ch.writeTo(fw1);
ch.writeTo(fw2);
ch.writeTo(fw3);
ch.writeTo(fw4);
fw1.close();
fw2.close();
fw3.close();
fw4.close();
fr.close();
System.out.println("operations are completed");
}
}
177 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Line oriented I/O:-

In above two streams(byte & character) it is possible to read only one item at time it
increases number of read & write operations hence the performance is decreased.
To overcome above limitation to improve performance of the application instead of
reading the data item by item, read the data line-by-line format to improve the performance.
To perform line oriented operations use two classes.
 BufferedReader
o It is used to read the data from source file in line by line format.
o To read the data use readLine() method of BufferedReader class .
public java.lang.String readLine() throws java.io.IOException;
The readLine() method returns first line of the text file in the form of String.
 PrintWriter
o It is used to write the data to destination file in line by line format.
o To write the data to file use println() method of PrintWriter class.
public void println(java.lang.String);
The above method used to write the data to destination file.
Example :-
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.FileWriter;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import java.io.IOException;
public class CopyLines {

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
BufferedReader inputStream = null;
PrintWriter outputStream = null;
try {
inputStream = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("ratan.txt"));
outputStream = new PrintWriter(new FileWriter("characteroutput.txt"));
String l;
while ((l = inputStream.readLine()) != null) {
outputStream.println(l);
}
}
finally {
if (inputStream != null) {
inputStream.close();
}
if (outputStream != null) {
outputStream.close();
}
}
}
}
178 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Buffered Streams:-
 In previous examples we are using un-buffered I/O .This means each read and write request is
handled directly by the underlying OS.
 In normal streams each request directly triggers disk access it is relatively expensive &
performance is degraded.
To overcome above limitations use buffered streams.
 Bufferd input stream read the data from buffered memory and it interacting with hard disk only
when buffered memory is empty.
 Buffered output stream write the data to buffer memory.
There are four buffered stream classes.

Buffered byte streams,
1. BufferedInputStream
2. BufferedOutputStream
A program can convert an un buffered stream into buffered streams.
new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream("xanadu.txt"));
new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputSream("byteoutput.txt"));
Buffered Character streams,
3. BufferedReader
4. BufferedWriter
A program can convert an un buffered stream into buffered streams.
new BufferedReader(new FileReader("ratan.txt"));
new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter("characteroutput.txt"));
Example:-
import java.io.*;
class Test
{ BufferedReader br;
BufferedWriter bw;
try{
br=new BufferedReader(new FileReader("Test1.java"));
bw=new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter("States.java"));
String str;
while ((str=br.readLine())!=null)
{ bw.write(str);
}
br.close();
bw.close();
}
catch(Exception e)
{ System.out.println("getting Exception");
}
}
}
179 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example:-
import java.io.*;
class Test
{ BufferedInputStream bis;
BufferedOutputStream bos;
try{
bis=new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream("abc.txt"));
bos=new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream("xyz.txt"));
int str;
while ((str=bis.read())!=-1)
{ bos.write(str);
}
bis.close();
bos.close();
}
catch(Exception e)
{ System.out.println(e);
System.out.println("getting Exception");
}
}
}
I/O from the Command Line by using Console class:-

 The console class used to get the data from console and it is introduced in 1.5 version present in
java.io package.
 It provides the methods to read text data and password.
import java.io.*;
class Test
{ Console c = System.console();
System.out.println("enter your name:");

String name = c.readLine();
System.out.println("welcome to="+name);
System.out.println("enter password");
char[] ch = c.readPassword();
System.out.println("password is="+ch);
String pwd = String.valueOf(ch);
System.out.println("password is="+pwd);
}
};

Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Serialization:-
The process of saving an object to a file (or) the process of sending an object across the network is called
serialization.
But strictly speaking the process of converting the object from java supported form to the network
supported form of file supported form.
To do the serialization we required fallowing classes
1. FileOutputStream
2. ObjectOutputStream
Deserialization:-
The process of reading the object from file supported form or network supported form to the
java supported form is called deserialization.
We can achieve the deserialization by using fallowing classes.
1. FileInputStream
2. ObjectInputStream
import java.io.*;
class Emp implements Serializable
{ int eid;
String ename;
Emp(int eid,String ename)
{this.eid=eid;
this.ename=ename;
}
public static void main(String[] args)throws Exception
{
Emp e = new Emp(111,"ratan");
//serialization [write the object to file]

FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("xxxx.txt");
ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(fos);
oos.writeObject(e);
System.out.println("serialization completed");
//deserialization [read object form text file]

FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream("xxxx.txt");
ObjectInputStream ois = new ObjectInputStream(fis);
Emp e1 = (Emp)ois.readObject();//returns Object
System.out.println(e1.eid+"----"+e1.ename);
System.out.println("de serialization completed");
}
}
181 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Transient Modifiers :-
Transient modifier is the modifier applicable for only variables and we can’t apply for methods and
classes.
 At the time of serialization, if we don’t want to save the values of a particular variable to meet
security constraints then we should go for transient modifier.
 At the time of serialization JVM ignores the original value of transient variable and default value
will be serialized
import java.io.*;
class Emp implements Serializable
{ transient int eid;
transient String ename;
}
0----null

Exception Handling
Introduction:-
 Dictionary meaning of the exception is abnormal termination.
 An exception is an event that occurs during execution of the program that disturbs normal
flow of the program instructions.
 If the application contains exception then the program terminated abnormally then the rest of
the application is not executed.
To overcome above limitation in order to execute the rest of the application & to get normal
termination of the application must handle the exception.
There are two ways to handle the exceptions in java.

1) By using try-catch block.
2) By using throws keyword.
Reasons for exceptions:-

 opening a non-existing file.
 Network connection problems.
 Values are out of range values
 End user input mistakes…….etc
Exception Handling:-
 The main objective of exception handling is to get normal termination of the application in order
to execute rest of the application code.
 Exception handling means just we are providing alternate code to continue the execution of
remaining code & to get normal termination of the application.
Every Exception is a predefined class present in different packages.

java.lang.ArithmeticException java.lang
java.io.IOException java.io
java.sql.SQLException java.sql
javax.servlet.ServletException javax.servlet
Types of Exceptions:-
As per the sun micro systems standards The Exceptions are divided into three types
1) Checked Exception
2) Unchecked Exception
3) Error
Checked Exception:-
 The Exceptions which are checked by the compiler at the time of compilation are called Checked
Exceptions.
Examples:- IOException,SQLException,InterruptedException,ClassNotFoundException……..etc
 If the application contains checked Exception the compiler is able to check it and it will give
intimation to developer regarding Exception in the form of compilation error.
 Handle the checked Exception in two ways
o By using try-catch block.
o By using throws keyword.
183 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
In our application whenever we are using exceptional methods the code is not compiled because
these methods throws checked exception hence must handle the exception by using try-catch or throws
keywords. And no need to remember the methods just use the method compile it then compiler is saying
exception information handle it.
Note: - If application contains checked Exception then compile time just compiler is displays exception
information for handling but the exception raised at runtime if the required resources are not available.
Checked Exception scenarios:-

1) java.lang.InterruptedException
When we used Thread.sleep(2000); your thread is entered into sleeping mode then other
threads are able to interrupt the program is terminated abnormally & rest of the application is
not executed.
To overcome above problem compile time compiler is checking that exception &
displaying exception information in the form of compilation error.
Based on compiler generated error message write the try-catch blocks or throws , if
runtime any exception raised the try-catch or throws keyword executed program is terminated
normally.
2) Java.io.FileNotFoundException
If we are trying to read the file from local disk but at runtime if the file is not available
program is terminated abnormally rest of the application is not executed.
To overcome above problem compile time compiler is checking that exception &
displaying exception information in the form of compilation error.
Based on compiler generated error message write the try-catch blocks or throws , if
runtime any exception raised the try-catch or throws keyword executed program is terminated
normally.
3) Java.sql.SQLException
If we are trying to connect to data base but at runtime data base is not available
program is terminated abnormally rest of the application is not executed.
Note: In above scenarios compile time compiler is display just exception information but exception
raised at runtime.
Example:-
import java.io.*;
class Test
{ File f = new File("abc.txt");
FileReader fr = new FileReader(f);
}
}
If you are trying to compile the above compilation the compiler will show the compilation error.
G:\>javac Test.java
Test.java:5: error: unreported exception FileNotFoundException; must be caught or declared to be
thrown
FileReader fr = new FileReader(f);
184 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Unchecked Exception:-
 The exceptions which are not checked by the compiler at the time of compilation are called
unchecked Exception.
ArithmeticException,ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException,NumberFormatException….etc
 If the application contains un-checked Exception code is compiled but at runtime JVM (Default
Exception handler) display exception message then program terminated abnormally.
 To overcome runtime problem must handle the exception in two ways.
o By using try-catch blocks.
o By using throws keyword.
Example :-
class Test
{ int[] a ={10,20,30};
System.out.println(a[6]);
}
}
G:\>java Test
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 6
Note-1:- Whether it is a checked Exception or unchecked exception exceptions are raised

at runtime but not compile time.
Note 2:- In java whether it is a checked Exception or unchecked Exception must handle the
Exception by using try-catch blocks or throws keyword to get normal termination
of application & to execute rest of the application.
Exception vs Error:-
The exception are occurred due to several reasons
a. Developer mistakes
b. End-user input mistakes.
c. Resource is not available
d. Networking problems.
 Exceptions are caused to several reasons like developer mistakes, end user input mistakes,
network problems. But error is caused due to lack of system resources.
Example: - StackOverFlowError, OutOfMemoryError, AssertionError…………etc
 It is possible to handle the exceptions by using try-catch blocks or throws keyword but it is not
possible to handle the errors.
 Error is an un-checked type exception.
Example:-
class Test
{ Test[] t = new Test[100000000];
}
};
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
185 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Exception Handling Tree Structure:-
 In above tree Structure RuntimeException its child classes & Error its child classes are Unchecked
remaining all exceptions are checked Exceptions.
 The root class of exception handling is Throwable class.
186 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Fully Checked vs partially checked:-

 The root class & all its child class are checked then that root class is called fully checked exception.
Example :- IOException,SQLException….etc
 The root class contains some child classes are checked exceptions & some child classes are un-
checked exception then that root class is called partially checked exception.
Example :- Exception , Throwable..etc
Exception handling key words:-

1) try
2) catch
3) finally
4) throw
5) throws
There are two ways to handle the exceptions in java.

1) By using try-catch block.
2) By using throws keyword.
Exception handling by using Try –catch blocks:-

Syntax:- try
{ exceptional code;
}
catch (ExceptionName reference_variable)
{ Code to run if an exception is raised (alternate code);
}
Example-1 :-
Application without try-catch blocks
class Test
System.out.println(10/0);
System.out.println("rest of the application");
}
}
E:\>java Test
ratan
Exception in Thread “main” java.lang.ArithmeticException: / by zero
Handled by JVM type of the Exception description

In above example exception raised program is terminated abnormally & rest of the application is
not executed
Whenever the exception raised the default exception handler is responsible to handle the
exception & it is component of the JVM.
187 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Application with try-catch blocks:-

Whenever the exception is raised in the try block JVM won’t terminate the program immediately
it will search corresponding catch block.
a. If the catch block is matched then that block will be executed & rest of the application
executed & program is terminated normally.
b. If the catch block is not matched program is terminated abnormally.
class Test
try
{ System.out.println(10/0);
}
catch (ArithmeticException ae)
}
System.out.println("rest of the application");
}
}
E:\>java Test
ratan
5
rest of the application
In above example we are handling exception by using try-catch block hence the program is
terminated normally & rest of the application is executed.
Example-2 :-
Whenever the exception is raised in the try block JVM won’t terminate the program immediately
it will search corresponding catch block.
a. If the catch block is matched then that block will be executed & rest of the application
executed & program is terminated normally.
b. If the catch block is not matched program is terminated abnormally.
In below example catch block is not matched hence program is terminated abnormally.
class Test
{ try
{ System.out.println("sravya");
}
catch(NullPointerException e)
}
System.out.println("rest of the app");
}
}
E:\sravya>java Test
sravya
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArithmeticException: / by zero
188 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example 3:- If there is no exception in try block the corresponding catch blocks are not checked.
class Test
{ try
System.out.println("anu");
}
catch(NullPointerException e)
}
}
}
E:\sravya>java Test
sravya
anu
rest of the app
Example 4:- In Exception handling independent try blocks declaration are not allowed must declare
try-catch or try- finally or try-catch-finally.
class Test
{ try
}
}
}
E:\sravya>javac Test.java
Test.java:4: 'try' without 'catch' or 'finally'
Example 5:-
 In between try-catch blocks it is not possible to declare any statements, if we are declaring
statements compiler will generate error message.
 In exception handling must declare try with immediate catch block.
class Test
{ try
}
catch(ArithmeticException e)
}
}
}
189 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example 6:-
 If the exception raised in try block jvm will search corresponding catch block but if the exception
raised other than try-catch blocks it is always abnormal termination.
 If the exception raised in other than try block it is always abnormal termination.
 In below example exception raised in catch block hence program is terminated abnormally.
class Test
{ try
}
}
}
}
Example 7:-
 If the exception raised in try block the remaining code of try block is not executed.
 Once the control is out of the try block the control never entered into try block once again.
 Don’t take normal code inside try block because no guarantee all statements in try-block will be
executed or not.
class Test
{ try
System.out.println("sravya");
System.out.println("ratan");
}
}
}
}
E:\sravya>java Test

rest of the app
190 | P a g e
SravyaInfotech Mr. Ratan
Example 8:- The way of handling the exception is varied from exception to the exception hence it is
recommended to provide try with multiple number of catch blocks.
import java.util.*;
class Test
{ Scanner s=new Scanner(System.in); //Scanner object used to take dynamic input
System.out.println("provide the division value");
int n=s.nextInt();
try
{ System.out.println(10/n);
System.out.println("ratan".charAt(10));
}
{ System.out.println("Ratan soft");
}
catch (StringIndexOutOfBoundsException se)
{ System.out.println("durga soft");
}
System.out.println("rest of the code");
}
}
Output:- provide the division value: 5 Output:- provide the division value: 0
Write the output Write the output
Example 9:- By using Exception class catch block it is possible to hold any type of exceptions.
import java.util.*;
class Test
{ Scanner s=new Scanner(System.in); //Scanner object used to take dynamic input
System.out.println("provide the division value");
int n=s.nextInt();
try
}
catch (Exception ae)
{ System.out.println("Ratansoft");
}
}
}
191 | P a g e
Example 10:- When we declare multiple catch blocks then the catch block order must be child-parent
but if we are declaring parent to child compiler will generate error message.
No compilation error (catch block order child to parent type)

import java.util.*;
class Test
System.out.println("provide the division val");
int n=s.nextInt();
try
String str=null;
System.out.println(str.length());
}
//catch block order is child to parent
{ System.out.println("Exception"+ae);
}
catch (Exception ne)
{ System.out.println("Exception"+ne);
}
}
}
Compilation error (catch block order is parent to child)
//catch block order is parent to child

catch (Exception ae)
{ System.out.println("Exception"+ae);
}
catch (ArithmeticException ne)
{ System.out.println("Exception"+ne);
}
G:\>javac Test.java
Test.java:16: error: exception ArithmeticException has already been caught
192 | P a g e
Example 11:- There are three methods to print Exception information

 toString()
 getMessage()
 printStackTrace()
class Test
{ void m1()
{ m2(); }
void m2()
{ m3(); }
void m3()
{ try{ System.out.println(10/0); }
catch(ArithmeticException ae)
{ System.out.println(ae.toString());
System.out.println(ae.getMessage());
ae.printStackTrace();
}
}
t.m1();
}
};
D:\DP>java Test
java.lang.ArithmeticException: / by zero //toString() method output
/ by zero //getMessage() method output
java.lang.ArithmeticException: / by zero //printStackTrace() method
at Test1.m3(Test1.java:8)
at Test1.main(Test1.java:17)
Example 12:- Internally JVM uses printStackTrace() method to print exception information.
class Test
{ void m3() { System.out.println(10/0); }
void m2() { m3(); }
void m1() { m2(); }
{ new Test().m1();
}
};

Example 13:-
 It is possible to combine more than one exception in single catch block.
 This is introduced In 1.7 version the code is compiled & executed in 1.7 & above version.

catch(ArithmeticException | StringIndexOutOfBoundsException a) .
catch(NumberFormatException | NullPointerException | StringIndexOutOfBoundsException a)
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.io.*;
public class Test
System.out.println("enter a number");
int n = s.nextInt();
try {
System.out.println(10/n);
}
catch(ArithmeticException | ClassCastException a)
{ System.out.println("exception info="+a);
}
catch(NumberFormatException | NullPointerException | StringIndexOutOfBoundsException a)
}
System.out.println("Rest of the application");
}
}
Example14:- multiple exception in single catch for checked Exception.

import java.io.*;
public class Test
{ try {
FileInputStream f = new FileInputStream("abc.txt");
Thread.sleep(2000);
}
catch(FileNotFoundException | InterruptedException a)
}
System.out.println("Rest of the application");
}
}
194 | P a g e
Example 15 : Above example Observation

If you are declared exceptions in catch block but these exceptions are not raised in try block then
it raise an error message.
import java.io.*;
public class Test
{ try
{ FileInputStream f = new FileInputStream("abc.txt");
Thread.sleep(2000);
}
catch(FileNotFoundException | ClassCastException a)
}
catch(InterruptedException | ClassNotFoundException a)
}
}
}
G:\>javac Test.java
error: exception ClassNotFoundException is never thrown in body of corresponding try statement
catch(InterruptedException | ClassNotFoundException a)
Example 16: Exception propagation

If the exception raised in top of the stack method but if you are not handled it drops down to the
stack previous method, if you are not catch it drop down until end of the stack(up to main method) this
is called exception propagation.
Note : only the unchecked Exceptions are propagated but not checked.
class Test
{ void m3()
}
void m2()
{ m3();
}
void m1()
{ try{
m2();
}

Propagating unchecked Exception:-(Automatically)
Propagating checked Exception by using throws keyword:-

Example 17:-
Generally finally block is used to close the resources but some time we forgot to close the
resources then we will get problems.
You can use a finally block to ensure that a resource is closed regardless of whether the try
statement completes normally or abruptly. The following example uses a finally block instead of a try-
with-resources statement:
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(path));
try { return br.readLine();
} finally {
if (br != null) br.close();
}
}
To overcome above problem use try-with resources when we declare the resource by using try, when the
try-catch block completed resource is automatically closed.
try (BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(path))) {
return br.readLine();
}
BufferedReader will be closed regardless of whether the try statement completes normally or abnormally.
import java.util.*;
class Test
{ Scanner s=null;
try
{ s = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("enter id");
int a = s.nextInt();
System.out.println("input value="+a);
}
catch (InputMismatchException ae)
{ System.out.println("entered input wrong .......");
}
finally
{ s.close();
System.out.println("scanner is closed");
}
//after closing scanner object
System.out.println("enter second id");
int b = s.nextInt();
System.out.println("input value="+b);
}
}
G:\>java Test
enter id
123
input value=123
scanner is closed
enter second id
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalStateException: Scanner closed

Finally block:-
1) Finally block code is always executed irrespective of try and catch block code.
2) It is used to provide clean-up code
a. connection closing. Connection.close();
b. streams closing. Scanner.close();
c. Object destruction . Test t = new Test(); t=null;
3) It is not possible to write finally alone.
a. try-catch-finally ---> valid
b. try-catch ---> valid
c. catch-finally ---> invalid
d. try-catch-catch-finally ---> valid
e. try-finally ---> valid
f. catch-catch-finally ---> invalid
g. Try ---> invalid

Example:- final vs return statement

If the return statement present in try or catch block but finally block executed then only return
statement will be executed.
class Test
{ int m1()
{ try
{ System.out.println("hi try");
return 10;
}
finally
{ System.out.println("hi finally");
}
}
{ int a = new Test().m1();
System.out.println("return value="+a);
}
}
G:\>java Test
hi try
hi finally
return value=10
Example :- if the try & catch & finally contains return statement then finally block return statement
value is printed.
class Test
{ int m1()
{ try
{ return 10;
}
catch(Exception e)
{ return 20;
}
finally
{ return 30;
}
}
{ int a = new Test().m1();
System.out.println("return value="+a);
}
}
G:\>java Test
return value=30

Throws keyword:-
There are two approaches two handle the exceptions in java
a. By using try-catch blocks.
b. By using throws keyword.
Handling exception by using Try-catch Handling Exception by using throws keyword

1. Try-catch blocks are used to write the Throws keyword is used to delegate the
exception handling code. responsibilities of exception handling to caller
method.
2. By using try-catch blocks it is possible to By using throws it is possible to handle multiple
handle multiple exceptions by using multiple exceptions because one method is able to
catch blocks. throws multiple exceptions at time.
3. We can write the try-catch blocks at method We can write the throws keyword at method
implementation level. declaration level.
4. We can provide the try-catch blocks at We can provide the throws keyword only at
method & constructor & blocks level. method & constructor level but not block level.
Example 1:-
 in below example exception raised in studentDetails() method but it delegating responsibilities of
exception handling to hod() method by using throws keyword.
 But hod() method delegating responsibilities of exception handling to principal() method by
using throws now principal handing this exception by using try-catch blocks.
class Test
{ void studentDetails() throws InterruptedException
{ System.out.println("suneel babu is sleeping");
Thread.sleep(3000);
System.out.println("do not disturb sir......");
}
void hod()throws InterruptedException
{ studentDetails();
}
void principal()
{ try{
hod();}
catch(InterruptedException ie)
{ ie.printStackTrace(); }
}
void officeBoy()
{ principal();
}
t.officeBoy();
}
}
205 | P a g e
Example 2:-
 In below example method-by-method using throws keyword to delegate responsibilities of
exception handling to caller method.
 At final main() method uses throws keyword to delegate the responsibilities of exception
handling to JVM.
class Test
{ void studentDetails() throws InterruptedException
{ System.out.println("suneel babu is sleeping");
Thread.sleep(3000);
System.out.println("do not disturb sir......");
}
void hod()throws InterruptedException
{ studentDetails();
}
void principal()throws InterruptedException
{ hod();
}
void officeBoy()throws InterruptedException
{ principal();
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException
t.officeBoy();
}
}
Example 3:-
import java.io.*;
class Test
{ void m2()throws FileNotFoundException,InterruptedException
{ FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream("abc.txt");
Thread.sleep(2000);
System.out.println("Exceptions are handled");
}
void m1()
{ try{
m2();}
catch(FileNotFoundException f) { f.printStackTrace(); }
catch(InterruptedException ie) { ie.printStackTrace(); }
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException
t.m1();
}
}
206 | P a g e
Example 4:-
import java.io.*;
class Test
{ void m2()throws Exception //FileNotFoundException,InterruptedException
{ FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream("abc.txt");
Thread.sleep(2000);
System.out.println("Exceptions are handled");
}
void m1()throws Exception
{ m2();
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
t.m1();
}
}
Exception Handling with Method overriding in java:-

Example 1:-
If the superclass method does not declare an exception, subclass overridden method cannot
declare the checked exception but it can declare unchecked exception.
Case 1:-
import java.io.*;
class Parent
{ void m1()
{ System.out.println("Parent m1()");
}
}
{ void m1()throws IOException
{ System.out.println("child m1()");
}
}
G:\>javac Test.java
Test.java:8: error: m1() in Child cannot override m1() in Parent
overridden method does not throw IOException
case 2:-
class Parent
{ void m1()
}
}
{ void m1()throws ArithmeticException
}
}
207 | P a g e
Example :2 If the superclass method declares an exception, subclass overridden method can declare
same, subclass exception or no exception but cannot declare parent exception.
Case 1: Overriding & Overridden method same type of exception.
class Parent
}
}
}
}
Case 2: Overriden method contains Exception but overriding no exception
class Parent
}
}
{ void m1()
}
}
Case 3: overriding method is super class & overridden method is sub class
class Parent
{ void m1()throws Exception
}
}
}
}
Case 4: overridden method Is sub-type & overriding method is parent-type not allowed
generate Compilation error.
class Parent
}
}
{ void m1()throws Exception
}
}
error: m1() in Child cannot override m1() in Parent overridden method does not throw Exception.

Throw keyword:-
 It is used to handover user created Exception object to JVM.
 It is used to throw exception explicitly.
 By using throw keyword it is possible throw predefined Exceptions & custom exception but it is
always recommended to throw custom exceptions.
Note: - throw keyword is used to handover user created exception object to JVM whether it is predefined
exception class or user defined exception class but it is always recommended throw custom exception.
Example:- throw statement throw an predefined exception.

Step 1:- create the Exception object explicitly by the developer by using new keyword.
new ArithmeticException("ratan not eligible");
Step 2:- handover (throw) user created Exception object to jvm by using throw keyword.
throw new ArithmeticException("ratan not eligible");
Example:-
import java.util.*;
class Test
{ static void validate(int age)
{ if (age<18)
{ throw new ArithmeticException("not eligible for vote");
}
else
{ System.out.println("welcome to the voting");
}
}
System.out.println("please enter your age ");
validate(s.nextInt());
}
}
E:\>java Test E:\>java Test
please enter your age please enter your age
45 10
Check the output Check the output
Example: - throw statement throw a user defined exception.

To achieve this mechanism first we must know how to create user defined exception then we are
able to use this throw keyword.
There are two types of exceptions present in the java language

1) Predefined Exceptions.
ArithmeticException,IOException,NullPointerException…………..etc
2) User defined Exceptions.(created by user)
InvalidAgeException,MyException…etc
209 | P a g e
Customization of exception handling :-( creation of predefined exceptions)

There are two types of user defined exceptions
1. User defined checked exception.
a. Default constructor approach.
b. Parameterized constructor approach.
2. User defined un-checked Exception.
a. Default constructor approach.
b. Parameterized constructor approach.
Note: - while declaring user defined exceptions: the naming conventions are every exception suffix must
be the word Exception.
Creation of user defined checked Exception by using default constructor approach:-

Step-1:- create the user defined checked Exception
Normal java class will become Exception class whenever we are extends Exception class.
InvaliedAgeException.java:-
package com.tcs.userexceptions;
public class InvalidAgeExcepiton extends Exception
{ //default constructor
};
Step-2:- use the user created Exception in our project.
Test.java
package com.tcs.project;
import com.tcs.userexceptions.InvalidAgeExcepiton;
class Test
{ static void status(int age)throws InvalidAgeExcepiton
{ if (age>25)
{System.out.println("eligible for mrg");
}
else
{ throw new InvalidAgeExcepiton(); //default constructor executed
}
}
public static void main(String[] args)throws InvalidAgeExcepiton
System.out.println("enter u r age");//23
Test.status(age);
}
}
D:\morn11>java com.tcs.project.Test
Enter u r age & check the output
210 | P a g e
Example :-Creation of user defined checked exception by using parameterized constructor approach.
step-1:- create the user defined checked exception class.

Normal java class will become checked exception class when we extends Exception class.
InvalidAgeException.java
public class InvalidAgeExcepiton extends Exception
{ public InvalidAgeExcepiton(String str)
{ super(str); //super constructor calling in order to print your information
}
};
Step-2:- use user created Exception in our project.

Test.java
class Test
{ static void status(int age)throws InvalidAgeExcepiton
{ if (age>25)
{ System.out.println("eligible for mrg");
}
else
{ //using user created Exception
throw new InvalidAgeExcepiton("not eligible try after some time");
}
}
public static void main(String[] args)throws InvalidAgeExcepiton
System.out.println("enter u r age");
Test.status(age);
}
}
D:\morn11>javac -d . InvalidAgeExcepiton.java
D:\morn11>javac -d . Test.java
enter u r age

Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example:-creation of user defined un-checked exception by using default constructor approach
Step-1:- create user defined un-checked exception.

Normal java class will become un-checked exception class when we exetends RuntimeException
class.
public class InvalidAgeExcepiton extends RuntimeException
{ //default constructor
}
Step-2:- use user created Exception in your project.

Test.java
class Test
{ static void status(int age)
{ if (age>25)
{System.out.println("eligible for mrg");
}
else
throw new InvalidAgeExcepiton();
}
}
System.out.println("enter u r age");//23
Test.status(age);
}
}
Example: - creation of user defined un-checked exception by using parameterized constructor approach
Step 1:- create user defined un-checked exception classs.

{ System.out.println("Test1 class m1()");
}
}
class Test
{ public static void main(String[] args) throws ClassNotFoundException
t.m1();
Class.forName("Emp");
}
}
Observation-1:- In Test class we are hard coding Test1 object but in target location Test1.class file is
not available it will generate java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError.
Observation-2:-
In java to load .class file dynamically at runtime we are using forName() method but if runtime
the class is not available it generate java.lang.ClassNotFoundException.
Different types of Errors:-
StackOverflowError:-
class Test
{ void m1()
{ m2();
System.out.println("this is Rattaiah");

Multi Threading
Information about multithreading:-
1) The earlier days the computer’s memory is occupied only one program after completion of one
program it is possible to execute another program is called uni programming.
2) Whenever one program execution is completed then only second program execution will be
started such type of execution is called co operative execution, this execution we are having lot
of disadvantages.
a. Most of the times memory will be wasted.
b. CPU utilization will be reduced because only program allow executing at a time.
c. The program queue is developed on the basis co operative execution
To overcome above problem a new programming style will be introduced is called multiprogramming.
1) Multiprogramming means executing the more than one program at a time.

2) All these programs are controlled by the CPU scheduler.
3) CPU scheduler will allocate a particular time period for each and every program.
4) Executing several programs simultaneously is called multiprogramming.
5) In multiprogramming a program can be entered in different states.
a. Ready state.
b. Running state.
c. Waiting state.
6) Multiprogramming mainly focuses on the number of programs.
Advantages of multiprogramming:-
1. The main advantage of multithreading is to provide simultaneous execution of two or

more parts of a application to improve the CPU utilization.
2. CPU utilization will be increased.
3. Execution speed will be increased and response time will be decreased.
4. CPU resources are not wasted.
Thread:-
1) Thread is nothing but separate path of sequential execution.
2) The independent execution technical name is called thread.
3) Whenever different parts of the program executed simultaneously that each and
every part is called thread.
4) The thread is light weight process because whenever we are creating thread it is not
occupying the separate memory it uses the same memory. Whenever the memory is
shared means it is not consuming more memory.
5) Executing more than one thread a time is called multithreading.
217 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Information about main Thread;-

When a java program started one Thread is running immediately that thread is called main
thread of your program.
1. It is used to create a new Thread(child Thread).
2. It must be the last thread to finish the execution because it perform various actions.
It is possible to get the current thread reference by using currentThread() method it is a
static public method present in Thread class.
class CurrentThreadDemo
{ public static void main(String[] arhgs)
{ Thread t=Thread.currentThread();
System.out.println("current Thread--->"+t);
//change the name of the thread
t.setName("ratan");
System.out.println("after name changed---> "+t);
}
};
Single threaded model:-

class Test
{ begins
{
System.out.println("Hello World!");
System.out.println("hi rattaiah"); body
System.out.println("hello Sravyasoft");
}
} end
In the above program only one thread is available is called main thread to know the name of
the thread we have to execute the fallowing code.
The main important application areas of the multithreading are
1. Developing video games
2. Implementing multimedia graphics.
3. Developing animations
A thread can be created in two ways:-

1) By extending Thread class.
2) By implementing java.lang.Runnable interface
218 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
First approach to create thread extending Thread class:-

Step 1:- Our normal java class will become Thread class whenever we are extending
predefined Thread class.
class MyThread extends Thread
{
};
Step 2:- override the run() method to write the business logic of the Thread( run() method present in
Thread class).
{ public void run()
{ System.out.println("business logic of the thread");
System.out.println("body of the thread");
}
}
Step 2:- Create userdefined Thread class object.
MyThread t=new MyThread();
Step 3:- Start the Thread by using start() method of Thread class.
t.start();
Example :-
class MyThread extends Thread //defining a Thread
{ //business logic of user defined Thread
public void run()
{ for (int i=0;i<10;i++)
{ System.out.println("userdefined Thread");
}
}
};
class ThreadDemo
{ public static void main(String[] args) //main thread started
{ MyThread t=new MyThread(); //MyThread is created
t.start(); //MyThread execution started
//business logic of main Thread
for (int i=0;i<10;i++)
{ System.out.println("Main Thread");
}
}
};
Flow of execution:-
1) Whenever we are calling t.start() method then JVM will search start() method in the MyThread
class since not available so JVM will execute parent class(Thread) start() method.
Thread class start() method responsibilities
a. User defined thread is registered into Thread Scheduler then only decide new Thread is
created.
b. The Thread class start() automatically calls run() to execute logics of userdefined Thread.
219 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Thread Scheduler:-
 Thread scheduler is a part of the JVM. It decides thread execution.
 Thread scheduler is a mental patient we are unable to predict exact behavior of Thread
Scheduler it is JVM vendor dependent.
 Thread Scheduler mainly uses two algorithms to decide Thread execution.
1) Preemptive algorithm.
2) Time slicing algorithm.
 We can’t expect exact behavior of the thread scheduler it is JVM vendor dependent. So we can’t
say expect output of the multithreaded examples we can say the possible outputs.
Preemptive scheduling:-
In this highest priority task is executed first after this task enters into waiting state or dead state
then only another higher priority task come to existence.
Time Slicing Scheduling:-

A task is executed predefined slice of time and then return pool of ready tasks. The scheduler
determines which task is executed based on the priority and other factors.
Example :-is it possible to start a thread twice : no
{ public static void main(String[] args)//main thread started
{ MyThread t=new MyThread(); //MyThread is created
t.start();
t.start();
}
};
D:\DP>java MyThread
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalThreadStateException
Life cycle stages are:-

1) New
2) Ready
3) Running state
4) Blocked / waiting / non-running mode
5) Dead state
New :- MyThread t=new MyThread();
Ready :- t.start()
Running state:- If thread scheduler allocates CPU for particular thread. Thread goes to running state
The Thread is running state means the run() is executed.
Blocked State:-
If the running thread got interrupted of goes to sleeping state at that moment it goes to the
blocked state.
Dead State:-If the business logic of the project is completed means run() over thread goes dead state.
Second approach to create thread implementing Runnable interface:-

Step 1:-our normal java class will become Thread class whenever we are implementing Runnable
interface.
class MyClass extends Runnable
220 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
{
};
Step2: override run method to write logic of Thread.

class MyClass extends Runnable
{ public void run()
{ System.out.println("Rattaiah from SravyaInfotech");
System.out.println("body of the thread");
}
}
Step 3:- Creating a object.
MyClass obj=new MyClass();
Step 4:- Creates a Thread class object.
After new Thread is created it is not started running until we are calling start() method.
So whenever we are calling start method that start() method call run() method then the new
Thread execution started.
Thread t=new Thread(obj);
t.start();
creation of Thread implementing Runnable interface :-
class MyThread implements Runnable
{ public void run()
{ //business logic of user defined Thread
{ System.out.println("userdefined Thread");
}
}
};
class ThreadDemo
{ public static void main(String[] args) //main thread started
{ MyThread r=new MyThread(); //MyThread is created
Thread t=new Thread(r);
t.start(); //MyThread execution started
//business logic of main Thread
{ System.out.println("Main Thread");
}
}
};
First approach:-
important point is that when extending the Thread class, the sub class cannot extend any
other base classes because Java allows only single inheritance.
Second approach:-
1) Implementing the Runnable interface does not give developers any control over the thread
itself, as it simply defines the unit of work that will be executed in a thread.
2) By implementing the Runnable interface, the class can still extend other base classes if
necessary.
221 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Creating two threads by extending Thread class using anonymous inner classes:-
class ThreadDemo
{ Thread t1 = new Thread() //anonymous inner class
{ public void run()
{System.out.println("user Thread-1");
}
};
Thread t2 = new Thread() //anonymous inner class
{ public void run()
{System.out.println("user thread-2");
}
};
t1.start();
t2.start();
}
};
Creating two threads by implementing Runnable interface using anonymous inner classes:-
class ThreadDemo
{
Runnable r1 = new Runnable()
{ public void run()
{System.out.println("user Thread-1");
}
};
Runnable r2 = new Runnable()
{ public void run()
{System.out.println("user thread-2");
}
};
Thread t1 = new Thread(r1);

Thread t2 = new Thread(r2);
t1.start();
t2.start();
}
};
Different ways to start the Thread:-
{ public void run()
{System.out.println("user thread is running extends Thread");
}
};
class MyRunnable implements Runnable
222 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
{ public void run()

{System.out.println("user thread is Running implements Runnable");
}
};
class ThreadDemo
{ //creating Thread class object by passing anonymous classes
new Thread(new MyThread()).start();
new Thread(new MyRunnable()).start();
}
};
Internal Implementation of multiThreading:-

interface Runnable
{ public abstract void run();
}
class Thread implements Runnable
{ public void run()
{ //empty implementation
}
};
{ public void run() //overriding run() to write business logic
{ for (int i=0;i<5 ;i++ )
{ System.out.println("user implementation");
}
}
};
Difference between t.start() and t.run():-

 In the case of t.start(), Thread class start() is executed a new thread will be created that
is responsible for the execution of run() method.
 But in the case of t.run() method, no new thread will be created and the run() is
executed like a normal method call by the main thread.
Note :- Here we are not overriding the run() method so thread class run method is executed which is
having empty implementation so we are not getting any output.
{ }
class ThreadDemo
{ MyThread t=new MyThread();
t.start();
for (int i=0;i<5;i++ )
{ System.out.println("main thread");
}
223 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
}
}
Note :- If we are overriding start() method then JVM is executes override start() method at this
situation we are not giving chance to the thread class start() hence n new thread will be created only
one thread is available the name of that thread is main thread.
{ Public void start()
{ System.out.println(“override start method”);
}
}
class ThreadDemo
t.start();
for (int i=0;i<5 ;i++ )
}
}
}
Different Threads are performing different tasks:--
1) Particular task is performed by the number of threads here number of threads(t1,t2,t3) are
executing same method (functionality).
2) In the above scenario for each and every thread one stack is created. Each and every
method called by particular Thread the every entry stored in the particular thread stack.
class MyThread1 extends Thread

{ public void run()
{ System.out.println("ratan task");
}
};
{ public void run()
{ System.out.println("Sravya task");
}
};
{ public void run()
{ System.out.println("anu task");
}
};
class ThreadDemo
{ public static void main(String[] args) //1- main Thread
{ MyThread1 t1 = new MyThread1();
MyThread2 t2 = new MyThread2();
t1.start(); //2
t2.start(); //3
t3.start(); //4
224 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
}
};
Here Four Stacks are created
Main -----------stack1
t1---------------stack2
t2--------------stack3
t3-------------stack4
Multiple threads are performing single task:-
{ public void run()
{ System.out.println("Sravyasoft task");
}
}
class ThreadDemo
{ public static void main(String[] args)//main Thread is started
{ MyThread t1=new MyThread(); //new Thread created
MyThread t2=new MyThread(); //new Thread created
MyThread t3=new MyThread(); //new Thread created
t1.start(); //Thread started
}
}
Getting and setting names of Thread:-

1) Every Thread in java having name
a. default name of the main thread is main
b. default name of user created threads starts from Thread-0.
t1 --Thread-0
t2 --Thread-1
t3 --Thread-2
2) To set the name use setName() & to get the name use getName(),
Public final String getName()
Public final void setName(String name)
Example:-
{ public void run()
{ System.out.println("thread is running");
}
}
class ThreadDemo
{ MyThread t1=new MyThread();
MyThread t2=new MyThread();
System.out.println("t1 Thread name="+t1.getName());
System.out.println("t2 Thread name="+t2.getName());
System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName());
t1.setName("ratan");
225 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
System.out.println("after changeing t1 Thread name="+t1.getName());

}
}
Thread Priorities:-
1. Every Thread in java has some property. It may be default priority provided be
the JVM or customized priority provided by the programmer.
2. The valid range of thread priorities is 1 – 10. Where one is lowest priority and 10
is highest priority.
3. The default priority of main thread is 5. The priority of child thread is inherited
from the parent.
4. Thread defines the following constants to represent some standard priorities.
5. Thread Scheduler will use priorities while allocating processor the thread which
is having highest priority will get chance first and the thread which is having low
priority.
6. If two threads having the same priority then we can’t expect exact execution
order it depends upon Thread Scheduler.
7. The thread which is having low priority has to wait until completion of high
priority threads.
8. Three constant values for the thread priority.
a. MIN_PRIORITY = 1
b. NORM_PRIORITY = 5
c. MAX_PRIORITY = 10
Thread class defines the following methods to get and set priority of a Thread.
Public final int getPriority()
Public final void setPriority(int priority)
Here ‘priority’ indicates a number which is in the allowed range of 1 – 10. Otherwise we will get
Runtime exception saying “IllegalArgumentException”.
Thread priority decide when to switch from one running thread to another this process is called
context switching.

{ public void run()
{ System.out.println("current Thread name = "+Thread.currentThread().getName());
System.out.println("current Thread priority = "+Thread.currentThread().getPriority());
}
};
class ThreadDemo
{ public static void main(String[] args)//main thread started
{ MyThread t1 = new MyThread();
MyThread t2 = new MyThread();
t1.setPriority(Thread.MIN_PRIORITY);
t2.setPriority(Thread.MAX_PRIORITY);
t1.start();
t2.start();
}
226 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
};
Java.lang.Thread.yield():-
 Yield() method causes to pause current executing Thread for giving the chance for
waiting threads of same priority.
 If there are no waiting threads or all threads are having low priority then the same
thread will continue its execution once again.
Syntax:-
Public static native void yield();
Ex:
{ public void run()
{
for(int i=0;i<10;i++)
{ Thread.yield();
System.out.println("child thread");
}
}
}
class ThreadYieldDemo
t1.start();
for(int i=0;i<10;i++)
}
}
}
Java.lang.Thread.join(-,-) method:-
 Join method allows one thread to wait for the completion of another thread.
o t.join(); ---> here t is a Thread Object whose thread is currently running.
 Join() is used to stop the execution of the thread until completion of some other Thread.

if a t1 thread is executed t2.join() at that situation t1 must wait until completion of the t2
thread.
public final void join()throws InterruptedExcetion
Public final void join(long ms)throws InterruptedException
Public final void join(long ms, int ns)throws InterruptedException
Methods of Thread class:-
{ public void run()
{ for (int i=0;i<5;i++)
227 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
{ try{ Thread.sleep(2000); }
catch(InterruptedException e)
{e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
};
class ThreadDemo
t1.start();
try
{t1.join(); }
catch (InterruptedException ie)
{ie.printStackTrace();
}
t2.start();
t3.start();
}
};
Java.lang.Thread.Interrupted( ):-
 A thread can interrupt another sleeping or waiting thread. But one thread is able to
interrupted only another sleeping or waiting thread.
 To interrupt a thread use Thread class interrupt() method.
 Public void interrupt()
Effect of interrupt() method call:-
{ public void run()
{ try
{ for (int i=0;i<10;i++ )
{ System.out.println("i am sleeping ");
Thread.sleep(5000);
}
}
catch (InterruptedException ie)
{ System.out.println("i got interupted by interrupt() call");
}
}
};
class ThreadDemo
228 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan

t.start();
t.interrupt();
}
};
No effect of interrupt() call:-
{ public void run()
{ for (int i=0;i<10;i++ )
{ System.out.println("i am sleeping ");
}
}
};
class ThreadDemo
t.start();
t.interrupt();
}
};
NOTE:- The interrupt() is effected whenever our thread enters into waiting state or sleeping
state and if the our thread doesn’t enters into the waiting/sleeping state interrupted call will
be wasted.
Shutdown Hook:-
 Shutdown hook used to perform cleanup activities when JVM shutdown normally or
abnormally.
 Clean-up activities like
o Resource release
o Database closing
o Sending alert message
 So if you want to execute some code before JVM shutdown use shutdown hook
The JVM will be shutdown in fallowing cases.
a. When you typed ctrl+C
b. When we used System.exit(int)
c. When the system is shutdown ……etc
To add the shutdown hook to JVM use addShutdownHook(obj) method of Runtime Class.
public void addShutdownHook(java.lang.Thread);
To remove the shutdown hook from JVM use removeShutdownHook(obj) method of Runtime
Class.
public boolean removeShutdownHook(java.lang.Thread);
To get the Runtime class object use static factory method getRuntime() & this method present
in Runtime class
229 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Factory method:- one java class method is able to return same class object or different class
object is called factory method.
Example :-
{ public void run()
{System.out.println("shoutdown hook");
}
};
class ThreadDemo
{ public static void main(String[] args)throws InterruptedException
{ MyThread t = new MyThread();
//creating Runtime class Object by using factory method
r.addShutdownHook(t); //adding Thread to JVM hook
for (int i=0;i<10 ;i++)
{System.out.println("main thread is running");
Thread.sleep(3000);
}
}
};
D:\DP>java ThreadDemo
main thread is running
shoutdown hook
while running Main thread press Ctrl+C then hook thread will be executed.
Synchronized :-
 Synchronized modifier is the modifier applicable for methods but not for classes and variables.
 If a method or a block declared as synchronized then at a time only one Thread is allowed to
operate on the given object.
 The main advantage of synchronized modifier is we can resolve data inconsistency problems.
 But the main disadvantage of synchronized modifier is it increases the waiting time of the
Thread and effects performance of the system .Hence if there is no specific requirement it is
never recommended to use.
 The main purpose of this modifier is to reduce the data inconsistence problems.
Non-synchronized methods
void m1()
{ non-synchronized method any number of threads can access
}
230 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Every thread accessing simultaneously
Thread 1 Thread 2 Thread 3---------Thread N
1) In the above case multiple threads are accessing the same methods hence we are getting data
inconsistency problems. These methods are not thread safe methods.
2) But in this case multiple threads are executing so the performance of the application will be
increased.
Synchronized methods
synchronized void m2()

{
Synchronized method only one thread is allow to access.
}
Only one thread allowed to access
Thread 1 Thread 2 Thread 3---------Thread N

1) In the above case only one thread is allow to operate on particular method so the data
inconsistency problems will be reduced.
2) Only one thread is allowed to access so the performance of the application will be reduced.
3) If we are using above approach there is no multithreading concept.
Hence it is not recommended to use the synchronized modifier in the multithreading

programming.
Example :-
class Test
{ public static synchronized void x(String msg) //only one thread is able to access
{ try{
System.out.println(msg);
Thread.sleep(4000);
Thread.sleep(4000);
}
catch(Exception e)
{e.printStackTrace();}
}
}
{ public void run( ) { Test.x("ratan"); } };
{ public void run( ){Test.x("anu");} };
{ public void run( ){Test.x("banu");} };
class TestDemo
{ public static void main(String[] args) //main thread -1
{ MyThread1 t1 = new MyThread1();
231 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
t1.start(); //2-Threads
}
}
If method is synchronized: if method is non-synchronized:-

D:\DP>java ThreadDemo D:\DP>java ThreadDemo
anu banu
anu ratan
banu anu
banu banu
ratan anu
ratan ratan
synchronized blocks:-
if the application method contains 100 lines but if we want to synchronized only 10 lines of code
use synchronized blocks.
The synchronized block contains less scope compare to method.
If we are writing all the method code inside the synchronized blocks it will work same as the synchronized
method.
Syntax:-
synchronized(object)
{ //code
}
class Heroin
{ public void message(String msg)
{ synchronized(this){
System.out.println("hi "+msg+" "+Thread.currentThread().getName());
try{Thread.sleep(5000);}
catch(InterruptedException e){e.printStackTrace();}
}
System.out.println("hi Sravyasoft");
}
};
{ Heroin h;
MyThread1(Heroin h)
{this.h=h;
}
public void run()
{ h.message("Anushka");
}
};
{ Heroin h;
MyThread2(Heroin h)
{this.h=h;
232 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
}
public void run()
{ h.message("Ratan");
}
};
class ThreadDemo
{
{ Heroin h = new Heroin();
MyThread1 t1 = new MyThread1(h);
MyThread2 t2 = new MyThread2(h);
t1.start();
t2.start();
}
};
Daemon threads:-
The threads wchich are executed at background is called daemon threads.
Ex:- garbage collector,ThreadSchedular.default exceptional handler.
Non-daemon threads:-
The threads which are executed fore ground is called non-daemon threads.
Ex:- normal java application.
 When we create a thread in java that is user defined thread and f it is running JVM will not
terminate that process.
 If a thread is marked as a daemon thread JVM does not wait to finish and as soon as all the user
defined threads are finished then it terminates the program and all associated daemon threads.
 Set the daemon nature to thread by using setDaemon() method
o MyThread t = new Mythread();
t.setDaemon(true);
 To know whether a thread is daemon or not use isDaemon() method
o Thread.currentThread().isDaemon();
{ void message(String str)
{ try {
System.out.println("message="+str);
Thread.sleep(1000); }
catch (InterruptedException e)
{e.printStackTrace(); }
}
public void run()
{ if (Thread.currentThread().isDaemon())
{ while (true)
{ message("print hi ratan");
}
}
}
};
class ThreadDemo
233 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan

t.setDaemon(true);//setting daemon nature to Thread
t.start();
try{Thread.sleep(5000);}
catch(InterruptedException e)
{e.printStackTrace();}
System.out.println("main thread completed");
}
};
Note :- in above example make the setdaemon() is comment mode then the program never terminates
even main thread finished it’s execution.

{ int total;
public void run()
{ synchronized(this){
for (int i=0;i<10 ;i++)
{ total=total+i;
}
notify();
}
}
}
class ThreadDemo
t.start();
synchronized(t)
{ System.out.println("MyThrad total is waiting for MyThread completion...");
try{
t.wait();}
catch(InterruptedException ie){System.out.println(ie);}
}
System.out.println("MyThrad total is ="+t.total);
}
};
Volatile:-
 Volatile modifier is also applicable only for variables but not for methods and classes.
 If the values of a variable keep on changing such type of variables we have to declare with
volatile modifier.
 If a variable declared as a volatile then for every Thread a separate local copy will be created.
 Every intermediate modification performed by that Thread will take place in local copy instead
of master copy.
 Once the value got finalized just before terminating the Thread the master copy value will be
updated with the local stable value. The main advantage of volatile modifier is we can resolve
the data inconsistency problem.
 But the main disadvantage is creating and maintaining a separate copy for every Thread
 Increases the complexity of the programming and effects performance of the system.
234 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Nested classes
 Declaring the class inside another class is called nested classes. This concept is introduced in the 1.1
version.
 Without existing one type of object there is no chance of existing another type of object we should
use Inner classes.
 Declaring the methods inside another method is called inner methods java not supporting inner
methods concept.
Example 1:- University contains several departments but without university no chance of existing
departments.
class University //outer class
{ class Department //inner class
{
}
}
Example 2:- without existing bank object no chance of existing account object.
class Bank //outer class
{ class Account //inner class
{
}
}
Example 3:- Map is a collection of key-value pairs & each key-value pair is entry. So map contains
group of entry’s .The entry can exists with presents of Map only.
interface Map //outer interface
{ interface Entry //inner interface
{
}
}
There are two types of nested classes in java,

1. Static nested classes
2. Non static nested classes( these are called inner classes)
a. Normal inner classes
b. Method local inner classes
c. Anonymous inner classes
235 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Uses of nested classes:-

 It is the way logically grouping classes that are only used in the one place.
If one class required another class only one time then it is logically embedded it into
that classes make the two classes together.
 it increase the encapsulation

If we are taking two top level classes A and B the B class need the members of A that
members even we are declaring private modifier the B class can access the private
numbers moreover the B is not visible for outside the world.
 It lead the more readability and maintainability of the code
Nesting the classes within the top level classes at that situation placing the code is very
closer to the top level class.
 Code optimization it reduce the length of the code.
Example :-
class Outer
{ class Inner
{
}
}
Note 1: The compiler will generate .class files for both inner & outer classes.
Outer class .class file name : Outer.class
Inner class .class file name : Outer$Inner.class
Note 2:- it is possible to create the objects for both inner & outer classes.
Outer class Object creation : Outer o = new Outer();
Inner class object creation : Outer.inner I = new Outer().new inner();
Note 3:- By using outer class object it is possible to call only outer class properties & by using
inner class object it is possible to call only inner class members.
Note 4:- The inner class methods are able to access outer class methods but outer class methods
are unable to access inner class methods.
Inner classes vs nested classes:-

Inner classes are part of nested classes. The non-static nested classes are called inner classes.
236 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
1. Member inner classes or regular inner classes or normal inner classes:-

 Declaring the class inside another class is called normal inner classes.
 The inner class is able to access outer class private properties
Syntax:-
class Outer
{ class Inner
{
};
};
Example -1:-
class Outer
{ private int a=10;
private int b=20;
void m1()
{ System.out.println("outer class m1()");
}
class Inner
{ int i=100;
int j=200;
void m2()
{ System.out.println("inner class m2()");
System.out.println(i+j);
m1();
}
};
};
class Test
{ Outer o = new Outer();
o.m1();
Outer.Inner i = o.new Inner();
i.m2();
}
};
Observation :- Reduce the length of the code
public static void main(String[] ratan)
{ new Outer().m1();
new Outer().new Inner().m2();
}
Example 2:- inside the inner classes it is not possible to declare static members hence inside the inner
classes it is not possible to declare main method because main is static.
class Outer
{ class Inner
{ public final static int a=10;
}
}
error: Illegal static declaration in inner class Outer.Inner
237 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example 3:-
class Outer
{ private int a=10;
private int b=20;
class Inner
{ int a=100;
int b=200;
void m1(int a,int b)
{ System.out.println(a+b); //local variables
System.out.println(this.a+this.b); //Inner class variables
System.out.println(Outer.this.a+Outer.this.b); //outer class variables
}
};
};
class Test
{ new Outer().new Inner().m1(1000,2000);
}
};
Example 4:-
class Outer
{ void m1(){ System.out.println("outer class m1()"); }
class Inner
{ void m1()
{ Outer.this.m1();
System.out.println("inner class m1()");
}
};
};
class Test
{ Outer.Inner i = new Outer().new Inner();
i.m1();
}
};
Example 5:- Inside the inner & outer classes it is possible to declare the constructor.
class Outer
{ Outer()
{ System.out.println("outer class cons"); }
class Inner
{ Inner()
{ System.out.println("Inner class cons"); }
}
{ new Outer().new Inner();
}
}
238 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
2. Method local inner classes:-

 Declaring the class inside the method is called method local inner classes.
 The scope is only within the method.it means whenever the method is completed inner class
object destroyed.
 The applicable modifiers on method local inner classes are final & abstract .
Syntax:-
class Outer
{ void m1()
{ class inner //method local inner class
{
};
}
};
Example-1:-
class Outer
{ private int a=100;
void m1()
{ class Inner
{ void m2()
{ System.out.println("inner class method");
}
}
Inner i=new Inner();
i.innerMethod();
}
};
class Test
{ Outer o=new Outer();
o.m1();
}
};
Example 2:-
class Outer
{ void show()
{ for (int i=0;i<10 ;i++ )
{ class Inner
{ public void info()
{ System.out.println("method local inner class"); }
}
new Inner().info();
}
}
{ new Outer().show();
}
}
239 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example 3:-
class Outer
{ private int a=100;
void m1()
{ final int b=200;//local variables must be final variables(upto 1.7 version) // 1.8 verison optional
class Inner
{ void m1()
{ System.out.println("inner class m1()");
}
};
Inner i = new Inner();
i.m1();
}
{ new Outer().m1();
}
};
3. Static nested classes:-

 Declaring the class inside another class with static modifier is called static inner classes.
 The normal inner class is able to access both static & non-static members of outer class but static
inner class is able to access only static members of outer class.
Normal inner classes:- Allows both static & non-static members of Outer class.
class Outer
{ int a=10; //instance varaible
static int b=20; //static variable
class Inner
{ void m1()
}
};
};
Static nested classes:- Allows only static members of outer class.

class Outer
{ static int a=10; //static variable
int b=20; //instance variable
static class Inner
{ void m1()
System.out.println(b); //compilation error
}
};
};
240 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example :-
class Outer
{ static int a=10;
static int b=20;
static class Inner
{ int c=30;
void m1()
System.out.println(c);
}
};
{ Outer o=new Outer();
Outer.Inner i=new Outer.Inner();
i.m1();
}
};
4. Anonymous inner class:-

 The name less inner class in java is called anonymous inner class.
 it can be used to provide the implementation of normal class or abstract class or interface
Application without anonymous inner classes:

class A //assume predefined class
{ void m1(){}
void m2(){}
}
class Test extends A //user class contains logics
}
class TestClient
t.m1();
t.m2();
}
}
Application with anonymous inner classes:-

class A //assume predefined class
{ void m1(){}
void m2(){}
}
class TestClient
{ A a = new A()
241 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan

};
{ TestClient t = new TestClient();
t.a.m1();
t.a.m2();
}
}
Example 2:-
class A //predefined class
{ void m1(){}
}
class TestClient
{ A a = new A()
{ void m1()
System.out.println(a.getClass().getName());
}
};
t.a.m1();
}
}
G:\>java TestClient
m1 method
TestClient$1
In above example when we create the object of A class internally A class object is not creating, the
compiler will generate one new class that class object will be created.
To get the compiler generated class use getClass() method of Object class.
TestClient$1 (.class file code ) open by using java de-compiler software

class TestClient$1 extends A
{ void m1()
}
final TestClient this$0;
TestClient$1()
{ this$0 = TestClient.this;
super();
}
}
242 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example 3:
abstract class Animal
{ abstract void eat();
};
class Test
{ //anonymous inner class
Animal a=new Animal()
{ void eat()
{ System.out.println("animals eating gross");
}
}; //semicolon mandatory
t.a.eat();
}
}
Example 4:-
Application without anonymous inner classes
interface It1
{ void m1();
}
}
class TestClient
t.m1();
}
}
Application with anonymous inner classes

interface It1
{ void m1();
}
class TestClient
{ It1 i = new It1()
};
t.i.m1();
}
}
243 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
The applicable modifiers on Outer classes

 Public
 Abstract
 Strictfp
 Final
 Default (no modifier)
The applicable modifiers on inner classes

 final
 abstract
 public
 private
 protected
 strictfp
 static
 default (no modifier)
Example 1:- private : it is possible to access private members inside the class only.
class Outer
{ private class Inner1
{
}
}
class Test
{ Outer.Inner1 i = new Outer().new Inner1();
}
}
Compilation Error: Outer.Inner1 has private access in Outer
Example 2:- abstract : it is not possible to instantiate the class.

class Outer
{ abstract class Inner
{
}
}
class Test
{ Outer.Inner i = new Outer().new Inner();
}
}
Compilation Error: Outer.Inner is abstract; cannot be instantiated
Outer.Inner i = new Outer().new Inner();
244 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example 3:- final : it is not possible to create sub class.

Case 1:-
class Outer
{ class Inner1
{ void m1(){System.out.println("Inner1 method");}
}
class Inner2 extends Inner1
{ void m2(){System.out.println("Inner2 method");}
}
}
class Test
{ Outer.Inner2 i = new Outer().new Inner2();
i.m1();
i.m2();
}
}
Case 2:-
class Outer
{ final class Inner1
{
}
class Inner2 extends Inner1
{
}
}
Compilation error : cannot inherit from final Outer.Inner1
Some possibilities:-
Case 1: Case 3:-
class A interface It1
{ class B { interface It2
{ {
} }
} }
Case 2:- Case 4:-
class A interface It1
{ interface It1 { class A
{ {
} }
} }
245 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Functional interface:-
 It is introduced in jdk1.8 version & it has exactly one abstract method.
 This interface is also known as single abstract method interface (SAM interface).
 Note that instances of functional interfaces can be created with lambda expressions, method
references, or constructor references.
 Java 8 introduced @FunctionalInterface annotation which can be used for compilation errors
when the interface you annotated violates the contracts of functional interface.
Example : @FunctionalInterface
interface Greetings
{ void morning();
}
Example : if we declare @functionalInterface annotation but if we are declaring more than one
abstract method then compiler will generate error message.
@FunctionalInterface
interface Greetings
{ void morning();
void m1();
}
E:\>javac Durga.java
Test.java:1: error: Unexpected @FunctionalInterface annotation @FunctionalInterface
Greetings is not a functional interface
multiple non-overriding abstract methods found in interface Greetings
 Functional interface allows only one abstract method it is not allowed second abstract method
in functional interface. If we remove @functionalInterface annotation then we are allowed to
add second abstract method but it is not a functional interface.

Annotations :-(meta data)

 Annotations are introduced in 1.5 version it represent metadata of the program.
 Annotations can be used attach the some additional information to the
interfaces,classes,methods,constructors which can be used by compiler and JVM.
 Annotations are executed by using predefined tool APT(Annotation Processing Tool ).
Meta annotations:-
 it specify information about annotation.
 These annotations are present in java.lang.annotation package.
 The meta annotations are
o @Retention
o @Target
o @Documented
o @Inherited
o @Repeatable
Annotation Retention policy:- @Retention

Retention policy determines at what point the annotation is available
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.SOURCE)
The marked annotation is retained only in the source level and is ignored by the compiler.
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.CLASS)
The marked annotation is retained by the compiler at compile time, but is ignored by the Java
Virtual Machine (JVM).
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
The marked annotation is retained by the JVM so it can be used by the runtime environment
Annotation Target specification: @Target

 Marks another annotation to restrict what kind of Java elements the annotation may be applied to.
 The target annotation specify one of the fallowing element,
@Target (ElementType.ANNOTATION_TYPE) can be applied to an annotation type.
@Target (ElementType.CONSTRUCTOR ) can be applied to a constructor.
@Target ( ElementType.FIELD ) can be applied to a field or property.
@Target (ElementType.LOCAL_VARIABLE) can be applied to a local variable.
@Target (ElementType.METHOD ) can be applied to a method-level annotation.
@Target (ElementType.PACKAGE) can be applied to a package declaration.
@Target (ElementType.PARAMETER) can be applied to the parameters of a method.
@Target (ElementType.TYPE) can be applied to any class, interface or enumeration.
@Documented - Marks another annotation for inclusion in the documentation.

Whenever we are using this annotation those elements should be documented by using javadoc
tool.
Syntax:-
251 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Annotation can be declared using ‘@’ character as prefix of annotation name.

@Annotation
public void annotatedMethod()
{ //logics here
}
Annotations has elements in the form of key=value ,the elements are properties of annotation.
@Annotataion(name="ratan",age="28")
{ //logics here
}
If the annotation contains single we can use like this.
@Annotataion(“I am hero”)
{ //logics here
}
It possible to declare multiple annotations at class-level
@Annotataion1(name="ratan")
@Annotataion2
{ //logics here
}
Uses of annotations:-
 Information for the compiler
Annotations are used by the compiler to detect suppress warnings or errors based on rules.
Example :- @Override this one makes the compiler to check the method correctly override or not
@FunctionalInterface this one makes the compiler to validate annotated interface is
functional interface or not.
 Documentation
Annotations can be used in software applications to ensure the quality of the code like bug
finding, report generation…etc
 Code generation
Annotations used to generate the code or xml files using meta data information present in the
code.
 Runtime processing
Annotations that are used in runtime objectives like unit testing, dependency injection…etc
There are three types of annotations

1) Java built in annotations
2) Marker annotations
3) Custom annotation
4) Meta annotations
@Override - Checks that the method is an override. Causes a compile error if the method is not found
in one of the parent classes or implemented interfaces.
252 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
@Target(ElementType.METHOD)
public @interface Override {
}
@override :-
 It instructs the compiler to check parent class method is overriding in child class or not if it is not
overriding compiler will generate error message.
 In below example if are not declaring @override annotation a new method of marry(int a)
created in child class.
class Parent
{ void marry(String name)
{ //logics-here }
};
{ @Override
void marry(int n)
{ //logics here }
};
E:\>javac Test.java
error: method does not override or implement a method from a supertype
@Override
@Deprecated - Marks the method as obsolete. Causes a compile warning if the method is used.
This annotation represent the marked element is no longer be used. The compiler generates
warning message when we used that marked element.
Example :-
@Deprecated
class Test
{ @Deprecated
void m1()
{//logics here
}
}
class Demo
t.m1();
}
};
E:\>javac Test.java
Note: Test.java uses or overrides a deprecated API.
Note: Recompile with -Xlint:deprecation for details.
E:\>javac -Xlint Test.java

Test.java:10: warning: [deprecation] Test in unnamed package has been deprecated
Test.java:10: warning: [deprecation] Test in unnamed package has been deprecated
253 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Test.java:11: warning: [deprecation] m1() in Test has been deprecated

t.m1();
3 warnings
Example -2:-
import java.awt.*;
class Student
{
Frame f = new Frame();
f.show();
}
};
E:\>javac Test.java
Note: Test.java uses or overrides a deprecated API.
Note: Recompile with -Xlint:deprecation for details.
@SuppressWarnings - Instructs the compiler to suppress the compile time warnings specified in the
annotation parameters.
@Target({TYPE, FIELD, METHOD, PARAMETER, CONSTRUCTOR, LOCAL_VARIABLE})
public @interface SuppressWarnings {
String[] value();
}
Whenever we are using deprecated annotate method then compiler will generate warning
messages but to ignore that warning messages use @suppressWarings annotation.
When you compiled below application it won’t generate any warnings even it uses @Deprecated
annotation.
Example-1 :-
class Test
{ @Deprecated
void m1()
{//logics here
}
}
class Demo
{ @SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
{ new Test().m1();
}
};
Example-2:-
import java.util.*;
class Student
{ @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
{ ArrayList al = new ArrayList();
al.add("ratan");
al.add("anu");
al.add("sravya");
254 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
System.out.println(al);
}
};
@SafeVarargs - Suppress warnings for all callers of a method or constructor with a generics varargs
parameter, since Java 7.
@Documented
@Target({ElementType.CONSTRUCTOR, ElementType.METHOD})
public @interface SafeVarargs { }
@FunctionalInterface - Specifies that the type declaration is intended to be a functional interface,

since Java 8. Annotations applied to other annotations (also known as "Meta Annotations"):
@Documented
@Target(ElementType.TYPE)
public @interface FunctionalInterface { }
@Inherited –
Marks another annotation to be inherited to subclasses of annotated class (by default
annotations are not inherited to subclasses).
Example :-
@Target({ElementType.METHOD, ElementType.CONSTRUCTOR})
@Inherited
@Documented
public @interface MyAnnotation
{ }
 In above example your annotation can be applied only on methods & constructors because you
specified this information by using @Target annotation.
 This annotation is used by JVM at runtime because we specified this information by using
@Retention.
 Basically parent class annotation is not visible in child classes but it is possible to inherit parent call
annotation in child class by using @Inherited annotation.
 we can create documentation by using javadoc tool because we declared annotation by using
@Documented annotation.
@Repeatable - Specifies that the annotation can be applied more than once to the same declaration,
since Java 8.
Customized Annotations:-
 Annotations can be created by using @interface fallowed by annotation name.
public @interface MyAnnotation
{
}
255 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
 Every annotation is extending java.lang.annotation.Annotation interface hence annotation can’t

include extend clause.
public interface MyAnnotation extends Annotation
{
}
Example :
Step 1: create the annotation
import java.lang.annotation.*;
import java.lang.reflect.*;
@Target(ElementType.METHOD)
@interface MyAnnotation
{ int value();
}
Step-2: Apply the annotation
class Test
{ @MyAnnotation(value=100)
public void m1()
}
}
Step 3: Accessing annotation
import java.lang.reflect.*;
class TestClient
{ public static void main(String[] args) throws NoSuchMethodException
Method m = t.getClass().getMethod("m1");
MyAnnotation mm = m.getAnnotation(MyAnnotation.class);
System.out.println("value is="+mm.value());
}
}

ENUMARATION (1.5 version)
 Enumeration is used to declare group of named constants.

 You define an enum type by using the enum keyword. For example, you would specify a days-of-the-
week enum type as,
public enum Day {
SUNDAY, MONDAY, TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY,
THURSDAY, FRIDAY, SATURDAY
}
 Every enum constant represents object of type enum.
Enum represention
enum Directions
{ NORTH, SOUTH, EAST,WEST;
}
Internal implementation:-
class Directions
{ public static final Directions NORTH = new Directions();
public static final Directions SOUTH = new Directions();
public static final Directions EAST = new Directions();
public static final Directions WEST = new Directions();
}
 Compiler will generate .class file for enum.
 The enum constants are by default public static final.
 The main purpose of the enum is to declare the own data types.
Java enum is powerfull compare to other language enums:-

 Enum improves the type safety.
 In java it is possible to declare fields,methods,constructors whereas it is not possible in other
languages.
 Enum may implements interfaces.
 Inside the switch it is possible to use enum.
 Inside the enum it is possible to take main method also.
259 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example :
enum EnumMail
{ INBOX,COMPOSE,SENT;
}
class ClassMail
{ public static final int INBOX=1;
public static final int COMPOSE=2;
public static final int SENT=3;
}
class Test
{ static void classConstants(int i)
{ if (i==ClassMail.INBOX)
{ System.out.println("mail inbox operation");
}
else if (i==ClassMail.COMPOSE)
{ System.out.println("mail compose operation");
}
else
{ System.out.println("mail sent operation");
}
}
static void enumConstants(EnumMail e)
{ if (e==EnumMail.INBOX)
{ System.out.println("mail inbox operation"); }
else if (e==EnumMail.COMPOSE)
{ System.out.println("mail compose operation"); }
else
{ System.out.println("mail sent operation"); }
}
{ Test.classConstants(1);
Test.classConstants(2);
Test.classConstants(3);
Test.classConstants(10); //no type safety we can pass any value
Test.enumConstants(EnumMail.COMPOSE);
Test.enumConstants(EnumMail.INBOX);
Test.enumConstants(EnumMail.SENT);
//here were providing type safety it means it is not possible to pass any other values
}
}
 In above example classConstants methods it is possible to provide any value as a input but we
can pass fixed values to enumconstants method, so it provides the type safety.
 When we change the constants value the program will not generate any error messages the
program might not work as expected. But when we change the enum constants we will get
compiler error which removes runtime error possibilities.
260 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example :- Inside the enum toString() method overridden to return the name of the constant.
public enum Heroin
{ SAMANTHA,TARA,ANU;
}
class Test
{ Heroin s=Heroin.SAMANTHA;
System.out.println(s);
Heroin t=Heroin.TARA;
Heroin a=Heroin.ANU;
}
};
Internal implementation of above example :- (.class file code)
public final class Heroin extends Enum
{ public static Heroin[] values()
{ return (Heroin[])$VALUES.clone();
}
public static Heroin valueOf(String s)
{ return (Heroin)Enum.valueOf(Heroin, s);
}
private Heroin(String s, int i)
{ super(s, i);
}
public static final Heroin SAMANTHA;
public static final Heroin TARA;
public static final Heroin ANU;
private static final Heroin $VALUES[];
static
{ SAMANTHA = new Heroin("SAMANTHA", 0);
TARA = new Heroin("TARA", 1);
ANU = new Heroin("ANU", 2);
$VALUES = (new Heroin[] {
SAMANTHA, TARA, ANU
});
}
}
 Every enum constant by default public static final.

 Every enum constant represenst object of type enum.
public static final Heroin SAMANTHA = new Heroin();
public static final Heroin TARA = new Heroin();
public static final Heroin ANU = new Heroin();
 Enum constructor is by default private hence it is not possible to create the object in outside of the
enum.
 Every enum constant contains index value & it starts from 0.
 Every enum is final by default hence other classes are unable to extends.
261 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example :-
 Values() method used to retrieve the all the constants at a time.
 Ordinal() method is used to print the index numbers of constants & index starts from 0.
public enum Heroin
{ SAMANTHA,TARA,ANU;
}
class Test
{ Heroin[] h = Heroin.values();
for (Heroin hh :h)
{ System.out.println(hh+”----”+hh.ordinal()); }
}
};
Example :-The enum constructor is by default private if we are declaring or not.
 Inside the enum if we are declaring only constants then the group of constants ends with
semicolon is optional.
public enum Beer
{ KF,RC,KALYANI //ends with semicolon is optional
}
 Inside the enum it is possible to declare the constructor in this case the group of constants must
be first line must ends with semicolon.
public enum Beer
{ KF,RC,KALYANI; //semicolon is mandatory
Beer()
{ System.out.println("Beer class constructor"); }
}
public enum Beer

{ KF,RC,KALYANI;
Beer() // by default private modifier provided by compiler
{ System.out.println("Beer class constructor"); }
}
class Test
{ Beer[] b = Beer.values();
for (Beer bb :b)
{ System.out.println(bb); }
}
}
G:\>java Test
Beer class constructor
KF
RC
KALYANI
 In above example every constant is object three times the constructor will be executed & it is a static
hence it will be executed during .class file loading.
262 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example :- Inside the enum it is possible to declare parameterized constructors.

enum Heroin
{ ANUSHKA,UBANU(10),DEEPIKA(10,20);
Heroin() { System.out.println("ratan"); }
Heroin(int a) { System.out.println("raghava"); }
Heroin(int a,int b) { System.out.println("sanki"); }
}
class Test
{ public static void main(String[] arhss)
for (Heroin h1 : h)
{ System.out.println(h1+"----"+h1.ordinal());
}
}
};
Example : Constructor is initializing specific values enum constants.

enum Heroin
{ ANUSHKA(10),UBANU(1),DEEPIKA(5);
int rating;
private Heroin(int rating)
{ this.rating=rating;
}
}
class Test
for (Heroin hh : h)
{ System.out.println(hh+"--Rating--"+hh.rating);
}
}
};
G:\>java Test
ANUSHKA--Rating--10
UBANU--Rating--1
DEEPIKA--Rating—5

Example :
Inside the enum it is possible to declare the main method but to execute this main method just
execute the .class file.
enum Heroin
{ ANUSHKA,UBANU,DEEPIKA;
{ System.out.println("enum class main method");
}
}
G:\>java Heroin
enum class main method
Example :-
enum Heroin
{ //group of constants
ANUSHKA(10),UBANU(20),DEEPIKA(5);
//variable declaration
int value;
//contructor declaration
Heroin(int value)
{ this.value=value;
}
//enum main method
{ System.out.println("enum main method");
}
}
class Test
{ //accessing enum constants
Heroin[] h = Heroin.values();
for (Heroin hh : h)
{ System.out.println(hh+"----"+hh.value);
}
}
};
G:\>java Test
ANUSHKA----10
UBANU----20
DEEPIKA----5
G:\>java Heroin
enum main method

Declaring enum inside the class :-

 If we declare the enum outside of the class the applicable modifiers are public,<default>, strictfp.
 If we are declaring enum inside the class the applicable modifiers are
o Public , <default> , strictfp , private , protected, static
 It is not possible to declare the enum inside the methods it means locally.
class Gmail
{ enum Mail{ INBOX,COMPOSE,SENT; } //; semicolan optional here
{ //class room code
Mail[] mm = Mail.values();
for (Mail mmm : mm)
{ System.out.println(mmm);
}
//project level code
for (Mail m : Mail.values())
{ System.out.println(m);
}
}
}
Example : Enum vs Switch

enum Day{ SUNDAY, MONDAY, TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY, FRIDAY, SATURDAY}
class Test
{ Day day=Day. SUNDAY;
switch(day)
{ case SUNDAY: System.out.println("sunday");
break;
case MONDAY: System.out.println("monday");
break;
default: System.out.println("other day");
}
}
}
In above example all case labels are must be enum constants otherwise compiler will generate error
message . case XXX: System.out.println("monday"); //error XXX not a enum type
Example :-
 Every enum is final by default hence it is not possible to extends other classes.
 Every enum is a final by default hence it is not possible to create child enums.
enum Day //every is enum is by default final

{ ******}
class Test extends Day
{******}
error: cannot inherit from final Day
265 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example : Every enum internally extends java.lang.Enum hence it is not possible to extends other classes.
class Test
{******}
enum Day extends Test
{*******}
Example : An enum can implements any number of interfaces.

interface It1
{*******}
enum Day implements It1
{********}
Example :- Enum vs packages
package pack1;
public enum Fish
{ STAR,GOLD;
}
package pack2;
import static pack1.Fish.*;
class Test2
{ System.out.println(GOLD);
}
}
package pack3;
import pack1.*;
class Test3
{ Fish f = Fish.STAR;
}
}
package pack4;
import pack1.*;
import static pack1.Fish.*;
class Test4
{ Fish f = Fish.STAR;
System.out.println(GOLD);
}
}

Arrays
 Arrays are used to represent group of elements as a single entity but these elements are
homogeneous & fixed size.
 The size of Array is fixed it means once we created Array it is not possible to increase and
decrease the size.
 Array in java is index based first element of the array stored at 0 index.
Advantages of array:-
 Instead of declaring individual variables we can declare group of elements by using array it
reduces length of the code.
 We can store the group of objects easily & we are able to retrieve the data easily.
 We can access the random elements present in the any location based on index.
 Array is able to hold reference variables of other types.
First element element at 5th position

10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 index
Length is 9
Different ways to declare a Array:-
int[] values;
int []values;
int values[];
declaration & instantiation & initialization :-
Approach 1:- int a[]={10,20,30,40}; //declaring, instantiation, intialization
Approach 2:- int[] a=new int[100]; //declaring, instantiation
a[0]=10; //initialization
a[1]=20;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
a[99]=40;
// declares an array of integers

int[] anArray;
// allocates memory for 10 integers
anArray = new int[10];
// initialize first element
anArray[0] = 10;
// initialize second element
anArray[1] = 20;
// and so forth
anArray[2] = 30; anArray[3] = 40; anArray[4] = 50; anArray[5] = 60;
anArray[6] = 70; anArray[7] = 80; anArray[8] = 90; anArray[9] = 100;
267 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example :- taking array elements from dynamic input by using scanner class.
import java.util.*;
class Test
{ int[] a=new int[5];
Scanner s=new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("enter values");
{ System.out.println("enter "+i+" value");
a[i]=s.nextInt();
}
for (int a1:a)
}
}
}
Example :- find the sum of the array elements.

class Test
{ int[] a={10,20,30,40};
int sum=0;
for (int a1:a)
{ sum=sum+a1;
}
System.out.println("Array Element sum is="+sum);
}
}
Method parameter is array & method return type is array:-

class Test
{ static void m1(int[] a) //method parameter is array
{ for (int a1:a)
}
}
static int[] m2() //method return type is array
return new int[]{100,200,300};
}
{ Test.m1(new int[]{10,20,30,40});
int[] x = Test.m2();
for (int x1:x)
{ System.out.println(x1);
}
}
}

}
Emp e1 = new Emp(111,"ratan");
Emp e2 = new Emp(222,"anu");
Emp e3 = new Emp(333,"sravya");
Emp[] e = new Emp[5];
e[0]=e1;
e[1]=e2;
e[2]=e3;
for (Emp ee:e)
{ System.out.println(ee); }
}
}
Output:-
E:\>java Test
111 0 0 0 0
Emp@530daa Emp@a62fc3 Emp@89ae9e null null
Example:- printing array elements with elements and default values.
class Test
{ Emp[] e = new Emp[5];
e[0]=new Emp(111,"ratan");
e[1]=new Emp(222,"anu");
e[2]=new Emp(333,"sravya");
for (Object ee:e)
{ if (ee instanceof Emp)
{ Emp eee = (Emp)ee;
System.out.println(eee.eid+"----"+eee.ename);
}
if (ee==null)
{ System.out.println(ee);
}
}
}
}
Output:-
E:\>java Test
111----ratan
222----anu
333----sravya
null

Finding minimum & maximum element of the array:-

class Test
{ int[] a = new int[]{10,20,5,70,4};
for (int a1:a)
}
//minimum element of the Array
int min=a[0];
{ if (min>a[i])
{ min=a[i];
}
}
System.out.println("minimum value is ="+min);
//maximum element of the Array
int max=a[0];
{ if (max<a[i])
{ max=a[i];
}
}
System.out.println("maximum value is ="+max);
}
}
Example :- copy the data from one array to another array
class Test
{ int[] copyfrom={10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80};
int[] copyto = new int[7];
System.arraycopy(copyfrom,1,copyto,0,7);
for (int cc:copyto)
{ System.out.println(cc);
}
}
}
Example :- copy the data from one array to another array
class Test
{ int[] copyfrom={10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80};
int[] newarray=java.util.Arrays.copyOfRange(copyfrom,1,4);
for (int aa:newarray)
{ System.out.println(aa); //20 30 40
}
}

Collections framework (java.util)

Pre-requisite topics for Collections framework:-
1) Arrays
2) toString() method.
3) type-casting.
4) interfaces.
5) for-each loop.
6) implementation classes.
7) compareTo() method.
8) Wrapper classes.
9) Marker interfaces advantages.
10) Anonymous inner classes.
11) For-each loop
12) Auto-boxing
Importance of collections:-
 The main objective of collections framework is to represent group of object as a single entity.
 In java Collection framework provide very good architecture to store and manipulate the group
of objects.
 Collection API contains group of classes and interfaces that makes it easier to handle group of
objects.
 Collections are providing flexibility to store, retrieve, and manipulate data.
The key interfaces of collection framework:-

1. Java.util.Collection
2. Java.util.List
3. Java.util.Set
4. Java.util.SortedSet
5. Java.util.NavigablaSet
6. Java.util.Queue
7. Java.util.Map
8. Java.util.SotedMap
9. Java.util.NavigableMap
10. Map.Entry
11. Java.util.Enumeration
12. Java.util.Iterator
13. Java.util.ListIterator
14. Java.lang.Comparable
15. Java.util.Comparator
 All collection framework classes and interfaces are present in java.util package.
 The root interface of Collection framework is Collection.
 Collection interface contains 15 methods so all collection implementation classes are able
to use these methods because collections is a root interface.
273 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Collection vs Collections:-
Collection is interface it is used to represent group of objects as a single entity.
Collections is utility class it contains methods to perform operations.
Arrays vs Collections:-
Both Arrays and Collections are used to represent group of objects as a single entity but the differences
are as shown below.
Limitations of Arrays Advantages of Collections
1) Arrays are used to represent group of 1) Collections are used to represent

objects as a single entity. group of objects as a single entity.

274 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Characteristics of Collection frame work classes:-

The collections framework contains group of classes but every class is used to represent group of
objects as a single entity but characteristics are different.
1) The collect ion framework classes introduced Versions

Different classes are introduced in different versions.
2) Heterogeneous data allowed or not allowed.

All most all collection framework classes allowed heterogeneous data except two classes
i. TreeSet ii. TreeMap
3) Null insertion is possible or not possible.

Some classes are allowed null insertion but some classes are not allowed.
4) Duplicate objects are allowed or not allowed.

Inserting same object more than one time is called duplication. Some classes are allowed
duplicates but some classes are not allowed duplicates.
add(e1)
add(e1)
5) Insertion order is preserved or not preserved.

In which order we are inserting element same order output is printed then say insertion
order is preserved otherwise not.
Input --->e1 e2 e3 output --->e1 e2 e3 insertion order is preserved
Input --->e1 e2 e3 output --->e2 e1 e3 insertion order is not-preserved
6) Collection classes’ methods are synchronized or non-synchronized.

If the methods are synchronized only one thread is allow to access, these methods are
thread safe but performance is reduced.
If the methods are non-synchronized multiple threads are able to access, these methods
are not thread safe but performance is increased.
7) Collection classes underlying data structures.

Arrays are does not contains underlying data structure hence it is not supporting
predefined methods.
Every collection class contains underlying data structure hence it supports predefined
methods.
Based on underlying data structure the element will be stored.
8) Collection classes supported cursors.

The collection classes are used to represent group of objects as a single entity & To
retrieve the objects from collation class we are using cursors.

ArrayList(c) LinkedList(c) Vector(c)

1.0 version
1.2 version 1.2 version extends
Stack(c)
1.0 version
Legacy classes(introduced in 1.0 version)

I = Interface c=class
Implementation classes of List interface :-
1) ArrayList 3) Vector
2) LinkedList 4) Stack
Legacy classes:-
The java classes which are introduced in 1.0 version are called legacy classes and java.util
package contains 5 legacy classes.
1) Dictionary 4) Stack
2) HashTable 5) Vector
3) Properties
Legacy interfaces:-
The java interfaces which are introduced in 1.0 version are called legacy interfaces and java.util
package contains only one interface is Enumeration.
List interface common properties:-

1) All list class allows heterogeneous data.
2) All List interface implementation classes allows null insertion.
3) All classes allows duplicate objects.
4) All classes preserved insertion order.

Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Java.util.ArrayList:-To check parent class and interface use below command.

D:\ratan>javap java.util.ArrayList
public class java.util.ArrayList<E>
extends java.util.AbstractList<E>
implements java.util.List<E>,
java.util.RandomAccess,
java.lang.Cloneable,
java.io.Serializable
ArrayList Characteristics:-
1) ArrayList Introduced in 1.2 version.
2) ArrayList stores Heterogeneous objects(different types).
3) In ArrayList it is possible to insert Null objects.
4) Duplicate objects are allowed.
5) ArrayList preserved Insertion order it means whatever the order we inserted the data in
the same way output will be printed.
6) ArrayList methods are non-synchronized methods.
7) The under laying data structure is growable array.
8) By using cursor we are able to retrieve the data from ArrayList : Iterator , ListIterator
Constructors to create ArrayList:-
Constructor-1:-
ArrayList al = new ArrayList();
The default capacity of the ArrayList is 10 once it reaches its maximum capacity then size is automatically
increased by New capacity = (old capacity*3)/2+1
Constructor-2:- ArrayList al = new ArrayList ( int initial-capacity);
It is possible to create ArrayList with initial capacity
Constructor-3:-
ArrayList al = new ArrayList(Collection c);
Adding one collection data into another collection(Vector data intoArrayList) use fallowing
constructor.
Example :-
Collections vs Autoboxing
Up to 1.4 version we must create wrapper class object then add that object into ArrayList.
import java.util.ArrayList;
class Test
Integer i = new Integer(10); //creation of Integer Object
Character ch = new Character('c'); //creation of Character Object
Double d = new Double(10.5); //creation of Double Object
//adding wrapper objects into ArrayList
al.add(i);
al.add(ch);
al.add(d);
}
}
277 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
From 1.5 version onwards add the primitive data into ArrayList that data is automatically
converted into wrapper object format is called Autoboxing.
Code before compilation:- Code after compilation:-

import java.util.ArrayList; import java.io.PrintStream;
class Test import java.util.ArrayList;
{ public static void main(String[] args) class Test
{ ArrayList al = new ArrayList(); { Test()
al.add(10); //AutoBoxing {
al.add('a'); //AutoBoxing }
al.add(10.5);//AutoBoxing public static void main(String args[])
System.out.println(al); { ArrayList arraylist = new ArrayList();
} arraylist.add(Integer.valueOf(10));
} arraylist.add(Character.valueOf('a'));
arraylist.add(Double.valueOf(10.5));
System.out.println(arraylist);
}
}
Example-2:-ArrayList vs toString()
Emp.java:- Student.java
class Emp class Student
{ int eid; { int sid;
String ename; String sname;
Emp(int eid,String ename) Student(int sid,String sname)
{ this.eid=eid; { this.sid=sid;
this.ename=ename; this.sname = sname;
} }
} }
Case 1:-
In java when we print reference variable internally it calls toString() method on that object.
class Test
{ Emp e1 = new Emp(111,"ratan");
Student s1 = new Student(222,"xxx");
al.add(10); //toString()
al.add('a'); //toString()
al.add(e1); //toString()
al.add(s1); //toString()
System.out.println(al); //[10, a, Emp@d70d7a, Student@b5f53a]
System.out.println(al.toString()); //[10, a, Emp@d70d7a, Student@b5f53a]
}
}
278 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Case2:-
class Test
Student s1 = new Student(222,"xxx");
al.add(10);
al.add('a');
al.add(e1);
al.add(s1);
System.out.println(al.toString()); //[10, a, Emp@d70d7a, Student@b5f53a]
for (Object o : al)
{ if (o instanceof Integer)
System.out.println(o.toString());
if (o instanceof Character)
System.out.println(o.toString());
if (o instanceof Emp){
Emp e = (Emp)o;
System.out.println(e.eid+"---"+e.ename);
}
if (o instanceof Student){
Student s = (Student)o;
System.out.println(s.sid+"---"+s.sname);
}
}
}
}
Example:- Basic operations of ArrayList

add() to add the objects into ArrayList & bydefault it add the data at last but it is possible to insert the
data at specified index.
remove() it removes Objects from ArrayList based on Object & index.
(for the remove(10) method if we are passing integer value that is always treted as index )
size() to find the size of ArrayList.
isEmpty() to check the objects are available or not.
Clear() to remove all objects from ArrayList.
import java.util.*;
class Test
{ ArrayList al =new ArrayList();
al.add(10);
al.add("ratan");
al.add("anu");
al.add('a');
al.add(10);
al.add(null);
279 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
System.out.println("ArrayList data="+al);
System.out.println("ArrayList size-->"+al.size());
al.add(1,"A1"); //add the object at first index
System.out.println("after adding objects ArrayList size-->"+al.size());
System.out.println("ArrayList Data="+al);
al.remove(1); //remove the object index base
al.remove("A"); //remove the object on object base
System.out.println("after removeing elemetns arrayList size "+al.size());
System.out.println("ArrayList data="+al);
System.out.println(al.isEmpty());
al.clear();
System.out.println(al.isEmpty());
}
}
E:\>java Test
ArrayList data=[10, ratan, anu, a, 10, null]
ArrayList size-->6
after adding objects ArrayList size-->7
ArrayList Data=[10, A1, ratan, anu, a, 10, null]
after removeing elemetns arrayList size 6
ArrayList data=[10, ratan, anu, a, 10, null]
false
true
observation:-
in above example when we remove the data by passing numeric value that is by default
treated as a index value.
al.add(10);
al.add("ratan");
al.add('a');
al.remove(10); // 10 is taken as index value
whenever we are executing above code then JVM treats that 10 is index value but 10th position
value is not available hence it is generating exception java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException: Index:
10, Size: 3
in above case to remove 10 Integer object then use below code.

al.add(i);
al.remove(i);
280 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
All collection classes are having 2-formats:-

1) Normal version (no type safety).
2) Generic version. (provide type safety )
The main purpose of the generics is to provide the type safety to avoid type casting problems.
Arrays [Type safety]:-
Arrays are always type safe it means we can give guarantee for the type of
element present in arrays.
For example if we want to store String objects create String[]. By mistake if we are trying to add any
other data compiler will generate compilation error.
Example:-
String[] str= new String[50];
str[0]="ratan";
str[1]="anu";
str[2]=new Integer(10);
E:\>javac Test.java
incompatible types
str[2]=new Integer(10);
required: String
found: Integer
Based on above error we can give guarantee String[] is able to store only String type of objects. Hence
with respect to the type arrays are recommended to use because it is type safe.
[Collection]Not type safe:-

Collections are not type safe it means we can’t give guarantee for the type of
elements present in collection.
If programming requirement is to hold the String type of the objects we are choosing ArrayList , by
mistake if we are adding any type of data then compiler is unable to generate compilation error but
runtime program is failed.
Example :-
al.add("ratan");
al.add("anu");
al.add(new Integer(10)); //allowed
String s1 = (String)al.get(0);
String s2 = (String)al.get(1);
String s3 = (String)al.get(2);//java.lang.ClassCastException
Based on above exception we can decide collection is not type safe.
Example :-
al.add("ratan");
String str = l.get(0); // java.lang.ClassCastException
String str =(String l.get(0); //type casting is mandatory
In above example type-casting is mandatory it is bigger problem in collection.
To overcome above problems use generics,

1) To provide type safety.
2) To overcome type casting problems.
281 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
in java it is recommended to use generic version of collections to provide the type

safety.
Syntax:-
ArrayList<type-name> al = new ArrayList<type-name>( );
The ArrayList is able to store only String data if we are trying to add any other data compiler will
Example :- ArrayList<String> al = new ArrayList<String>();
al.add("ratan");
al.add("anu");
al.add(new Integer(10)); //compilation error
if we are using generics we will get type safety. At the time retrieval not required to
perform type casting.
ArrayList<String> al = new ArrayList<String>();
al.add("ratan");
String s1 = al.get(0);
Normal version of ArrayList(no type safety) Generic version of ArrayList(type safety)

1) Normal version is able to hold any type 1) Generic version is able to hold specified
of data(heterogeneous data) hence it is type of data hence it is a type safe.
not a type safe. ArrayList<tye-name> al = new ArrayList<type-name>( );
ArrayList al = new ArrayList(); ArrayList<Integer> al = new ArrayList<Integer>();
al.add(10); al.add(10);
al.add(‘a’); al.add(20);
System.out.println(al); al.add(“ratan”);//compilation error

Example :- retrieving data from generic version of ArrayList.

import java.util.*;
class Test
{ ArrayList<Emp> al = new ArrayList<Emp>();
al.add(new Emp(111,"ratan"));
al.add(new Emp(222,"anu"));
al.add(new Emp(333,"Sravya"));
for (Emp e : al)
{ System.out.println(e.eid+"---"+e.ename);
}
}
}
Example :-
add(E); ---->to add the Object.
remove(java.lang.Object); ----->to remove the object.
addAll(); ------>to add one collection object into another collection.
contains() -----to check object is available or not.
containsAll() ----to check entire collection data is available or not.
Example:-
import java.util.*;
class Test
Emp e2 = new Emp(222,"Sravya");
Emp e3 = new Emp(333,"aruna");
Emp e4 = new Emp(444,"anu");
ArrayList<Emp> a1 = new ArrayList<Emp>();

a1.add(e1);
a1.add(e2);

a2.addAll(a1);
a2.add(e3);
a2.add(e4);
System.out.println(a2.contains(e1));
System.out.println(a2.containsAll(a1));
a2.remove(e1);
System.out.println(a2.contains(e1));
System.out.println(a2.containsAll(a1));
//printing the data
for (Emp e:a2)
}
}
}
283 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example :-removeAll(Obj):- a2.removeAll(a1); // it removes all a1 data.

retainAll(Obj):- a2.retainAll(a1); // it removes all a2 data except a1
import java.util.*;
class Test
{ ArrayList<Emp> a1 = new ArrayList<Emp>();
a1.add(new Emp(111,"ratan"));
a1.add(new Emp(222,"Sravya"));

a2.addAll(a1);
a2.add(new Emp(333,"aruna"));
a2.add(new Emp(444,"anu"));
a2.removeAll(a1);
a2.retainAll(a1);
for (Emp e:a2)
}
}
}
Creation of sub ArrayList & swapping data :-
Create sub ArrayList by using subList(int,int) method of ArrayList.
public java.util.List<E> subList(int, int);
to swap the data from one index position to another index position then use swap()
method of Collections class.
public static void swap(java.util.List<?>, int, int);
import java.util.*;
class Test
{ ArrayList<String> a1 = new ArrayList<String>();
a1.add("ratan");
a1.add("anu");
a1.add("Sravya");
a1.add("yadhu");
ArrayList<String> a2 = new ArrayList<String>(a1.subList(1,3));
System.out.println(a2); //[anu,Sravya]
ArrayList<String> a3 = new ArrayList<String>(a1.subList(1,a1.size()));
System.out.println(a3); //[anu,Sravya,yadhu]
//java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException: toIndex = 7
//ArrayList<String> a4 = new ArrayList<String>(a1.subList(1,7));
System.out.println("before swapping="+a1);//[ratan, anu, Sravya, yadhu]
Collections.swap(a1,1,3);
System.out.println("after swapping="+a1);// [ratan, yadhu, Sravya, anu]

Different ways to initialize values to ArrayList:-

Case 1:initializing ArrayList by using asList()
import java.util.*;
class ArrayListDemo
{ ArrayList<String> al = new ArrayList<String>(
Arrays.asList("ratan","Sravya","anu"));

285 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
{ {add("anu");
add("ratan");
}
};//semicolan is mandatory
}
}
Case 3:- normal approach to initialize the data
class ArrayListDemo
{ ArrayList<String> al = new ArrayList<String>();
al.add("anu");
al.add("Sravya");
}
}
Case 4:-
ArrayList<Type> obj = new ArrayList<Type>(Collections.nCopies(count, object));
import java.util.*;
class ArrayListDemo
ArrayList<Emp> al = new ArrayList<Emp>(Collections.nCopies(5,e1));
for (Emp e:al)
{ System.out.println(e.ename+"---"+e.eid);
}
}
}
Case 5:-adding Objects into ArrayList by using addAll() method of Collections class.

Q. How to get synchronized version of ArrayList?

Ans:- by default ArrayList methods are synchronized but it is possible to get synchronized version of
ArrayList by using fallowing method.
To get synchronized version of List interface use fallowing Collections class static method
public static List synchronizedList(List l)
To get synchronized version of Set interface use fallowing Collections class static method
public static Set synchronizedSet(Set s)
To get synchronized version of Map interface use fallowing Collections class static method
public static Map synchronized Map(Map m)
to get synchronized version of TreeSet use fallowing Collections class static method
Collections.synchronizedSortedSet(SortedSet<T> s)
to get synchronized version of TreeMap use fallowing Collections class static method
Collections.synchronizedSortedMap(SortedMap<K,V> m)
Example:-
ArrayList al = new ArrayList(); //non- synchronized version of ArrayList
List l = Collections.synchronizedList(al); // synchronized version of ArrayList
HasSet h = new HashSet(); //non- synchronized version of HashSet

Set h1 = Collections.synchronizedSet(h); // synchronized version of HashSet
HashMap h = new HashMap(); //non- synchronized version of HashMap

Map m = Collections.synchronizedMap(h); // synchronized version of HashMap
TreeSet t = new TreeSet(); //non- synchronized version of TreeSet

SortedSet s = Collections.synchronizedSortedSet(t); // synchronized version of TreeSet
TreeMap t = new TreeMap(); //non- synchronized version of TreeMap

SortedMap s = Collections.synchronizedSortedMap(t); // synchronized version of TreeMap

Sorting data by using sort() method of Collections class:-

we are able to sort ArrayList data by using sort() method of Collections class and by default it
perform ascending order .
public static <T extends java/lang/Comparable<? super T>> void sort(java.util.List<T>);
if we want to person ascending order your class must implements Comparable interface of
java.lang package.
If we want to perform descending order use Collections.reverseOrder() method along with

Collection.sort() method.
Collections.sort(list , Collections.reverseOrder());
import java.util.*;
class Test
al.add("ratan");
al.add("anu");
al.add("Sravya");
//printing ArrayList data
System.out.println("ArrayList data before sorting");
for (String str :al)
{ System.out.println(str);
}
//sorting ArrayList in ascending order
Collections.sort(al);
System.out.println("ArrayList data after sorting ascending order");
for (String str1 :al)
}
//sorting ArrayList in decending order
Collections.sort(al,Collections.reverseOrder());
System.out.println("ArrayList data after sorting descending order");
}
}
}
295 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example:-
import java.util.*;
class Test
al.add("ratan");
al.add("anu");
al.add("Sravya");
System.out.println("ArrayList data after sorting");
}
}
}
 in above example to perform the sorting of data by using natural sorting order then your objects
must be homogeneous and must implements comparable interface.
 The default natural sorting order internally uses compareTo() method to perform sorting and it
compare to objects and it return int value as a return value.
“ratan”.compareTo(“anu”) ==> +ve ==>change the order
“ratan”.compareTo(“ratan”) ==> 0 ==>no change
“anu”.compareTo(“ratan”) ==> -ve ==>no change
Example:-
The sorting object(Emp) Not implementing Comparable interface hence it does not perform sorting.
import java.util.*;
class Test
}
}
When we execute the above example JVM will generate Exception,
”java.lang.ClassCastException: Emp cannot be cast to java.lang.Comparable”
Example :-
If the Class contains Heterogeneous data sorting is not possible.
import java.util.*;
class Test
al.add("ratan");
al.add(10);
Collections.sort(al);//java.lang.ClassCastException
}
}To overcome above two cases exception use Comparable or Comparator interfaces to perform sorting.
296 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Comparable vs Comparator :-
 If we want to perform default natural sorting order then your objects must be
homogeneous & comparable.
 Comparable objects are nothing but the objects which are implements comparable
interface.
 All wrapper classes & String objects are implementing Comparable interface hence it is
possible to perform sorting.
 If we want to sort user defined class like Emp based on eid or ename with
default natural sorting order then your class must implements Comparable
interface.
 Comparable interface present in java.lang package it contains only one
method compareTo(obj) then must override that method to write the sorting
logics.
public abstract int compareTo(T);
 If your class is implementing Comparable interface then that objects are
sorted automatically by using Collections.sort(). And the objects are
sorted by using compareTo() method of that class.
Normal version of comparable:-
Emp.java:-
class Emp implements Comparable
{ int eid;
String ename;
{ this.eid=eid;
this.ename=ename;
}
public int compareTo(Object o)
{ Emp e = (Emp)o;
if (eid == e.eid )
{ return 0; }
else if (eid > e.eid)
{ return 1; }
else
{ return -1; }
}
}
Test.java:-
import java.util.*;
class Test
297 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Iterator itr = al.iterator();
while (itr.hasNext())
{ Emp e = (Emp)itr.next();
}
}
}
Generic version of Comparable:-
class Emp implements Comparable<Emp>
{ int eid;
String ename;
{ this.eid=eid;
this.ename=ename;
}
public int compareTo(Emp e)
{ return ename.compareTo(e.ename);
}
}
Java.utilComparator :-
 For the default sorting order use comparable but for customized sorting order we can
use Comparator.
 The class whose objects are stored do not implements this interface some third party
class can also implements this interface.
 Comparable present in java.lang package but Comparator present in java.util package.
 Comparator interface contains two methods,
public interface java.util.Comparator<T> {
public abstract int compare(T, T);
public abstract boolean equals(java.lang.Object);
}
Normal version of Comparator:-

class Emp
{ int eid;

this.ename=ename;

Example:-
In below example Vector class removeElement() method removes the data
always based on object but not index.
Vector v=new Vector(); Vector v=new Vector();
v.addElement("ratan"); v.addElement("ratan");
v.removeElement("ratan"); v.removeElement(0);
System.out.println(v); //[ ] empty output System.out.println(v); //[ratan]
The List interface remove() method removes the data based on index and object.
Vector v=new Vector();
v.addElement("ratan");
v.remove(0);
System.out.println(v); //[ ] empty output

Copying data from Vector to ArrayList:-

To copy data from one class to another class use copy() method of Collections class.
import java.util.*;
class Test
al.add("10");
al.add("20");
al.add("30");
Vector<String> v = new Vector<String>();
v.add("ten");
v.add("twenty");
//copy data from vector to ArrayList
Collections.copy(al,v);
}
}
D:\vikram>java Test
[ten, twenty, 30]
Passing data {ArrayList to Vector} & Vector to ArrayList:-

import java.util.*;
class Test
{ ArrayList<String> a1 = new ArrayList<String>();
a1.add("ratan");

a1.add("Sravya");
a1.add("yadhu");
//ArrayList - Vector
Vector<String> v = new Vector<String>(a1);
v.add("xxx");
v.add("yyy");
System.out.println(v); //[ratan, anu, Sravya, yadhu, xxx, yyy]
//Vector-ArrayList
ArrayList<String> a2 = new ArrayList<String>(v);
a2.add("suneel");
System.out.println(a2); //[ratan, anu, Sravya, yadhu, xxx, yyy, suneel]

1) Introduced in 1.2 version.

3) Duplicate objects are not allowed if we are trying to insert duplicate values then we won't get
any compilation & Execution errors simply add method returns false .
4) Null insertion is possible but if we are inserting more than one null it return only one null value
(because duplicates are not allowed).
5) The under laying data structure is HashTable.
6) Insertion order is not preserved it is based on the hash code of the object (hashing mechanism).
7) Methods are non-synchronized.
8) It supports only Iterator cursor to retrieve the data.
Example:-HashSet data duplication.

2. Heterogeneous objects are allowed.
3. Duplicate objects are not allowed if we are trying to insert duplicate values then we
won’t get any compilation & Execution errors simply add method return false.

Java.util.TreeSet:-
public class java.util.TreeSet extends java.util.AbstractSet<E>
implements java.util.NavigableSet<E>,
<E> specifies the type of the Object the set will be hold.
Constructors:-
TreeSet();
It will create empty TreeSet that will be sorted in ascending order according to natural order of
its elements.
TreeSet(java/util/Collection<? extends E>);
It creates the TreeSet with some collection data.
TreeSet(java/util/Comparator<? super E>);
It will create empty TreeSet with comparator specified sorting order (customization or sorting).
TreeSet(java/util/SortedSet<E>);
It builds the TreeSet that contains the elements of SortedSet.
1. TreeSet introduced in 1.2 version.

2. Heterogeneous data is not allowed.
3. Insertion order is not preserved but it sorts the elements in some sorting order.
4. Duplicate objects are not allowed.
5. Null insertion is possible only once.
6. TreeSet Methods are non-synchronized.
7. The underlying data Structure is Balanced Tree.
8. It supports Iterator cursor to retrieve the data.
Case -1: TreeSet<String> t=new TreeSet<String>();

t.add("ratan");
t.add("anu");
t.add("sravya");
System.out.println(t); //[anu, ratan, sravya]
 When we insert the data in TreeSet, by default it prints the data in sorting order(ascending or
alphabetical order) because it is implementing SortedSet interface.
311 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
 To perform the sorting internally it uses compareTo() method and it compare the two objects it
returns int value as a return value.
“ratan”.compareTo(“anu”) ==> +ve ==>change the order
“ratan”.compareTo(“ratan”) ==> 0 ==>no change
“anu”.compareTo(“ratan”) ==> -ve ==>no change
Case 2:-
TreeSet t=new TreeSet();
t.add("ratan");
t.add("anu");
t.add(10); // java.lang.ClassCastException
 TreeSet allows homogeneous data, if we are trying to insert heterogeneous data while
performing sorting by using compareTo() JVM will generate java.lang.ClassCastException
(because it is not possible to compare integer data with String) .
Case 3:-
TreeSet t=new TreeSet();
t.add("ratan");
t.add(null); //java.lang.NullPointerException
 If the TreeSet contains data if we are trying to insert null value at the time of comparison JVM
will generate //java.lang.NullPointerException.
 In java any object with comparison of null it will generate java.lang.NullPointerException.
Case 4:-` TreeSet t=new TreeSet();

t.add(null);
System.out.println(t);//[null]
 In empty TreeSet it is possible to insert null value because it is not performing any comparisons.
Example:-TreeSet default sorting order.
import java.util.*;
class Test
{ TreeSet<String> t = new TreeSet<String>();
t.add("ratan");
t.add("anu");
t.add("sravya");
TreeSet<Integer> t1 = new TreeSet<Integer>();
t1.add(10);
t1.add(12);
t1.add(8);
}
}

}
}
class MyComp implements Comparator<String>
{ public int compare(String s1,String s2)
{ return s1.compareTo(s2);//[apple, bananna, orange]
//return -s1.compareTo(s2);//[orange, bananna, apple]
}
};
Example:-Different possibilities of sorting order.

import java.util.*;
class Test
{ TreeSet<Integer> t=new TreeSet<Integer>(new MyComp()); // line-1
t.add(50);
t.add(20);
t.add(40);
t.add(10);

}
}
import java.util.*;
class MyComp implements Comparator
{ Integer i1 = (Integer)o1;
Integer i2 = (Integer)o2;
//check all possibilities by placing comments
//return i1.compareTo(i2);
//return -i1.compareTo(i2);
//return i2.compareTo(i1);
//return -i2.compareTo(i1);
//return -1;
//return +1;
//return 0;
}
}
313 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Observation-1:
in above example at line number-1 if we are not passing comparator object then JVM will call
compareTo() method as part of default sorting order .
Based on above line the default sorting will done by using compareTo() method.
Observation-2:-
In above example at line number 1 if we are passing comparator object then JVM will call
compare() method to perform sorting instead of compareTo() method.
Example :-write a program to insert String data into TreeSet to perform sorting in reverse of
alphabetical order.
import java.util.*;
class Test
{ TreeSet<String> t = new TreeSet<String>(new MyComp());
t.add("ratan");
t.add("anu");
t.add("aravya");
t.add("aruna");
}
}
class MyComp implements Comparator<String>
{ public int compare(String s1,String s2)
{ return s2.compareTo(s1);
//return -s1.compareTo(s2);
}
};
Example :-write a program to insert StringBuffer data into TreeSet to perform sorting in alphabetical
order.
import java.util.*;
class Test
{ TreeSet<StringBuffer> t = new TreeSet<StringBuffer>(new MyComp());
t.add(new StringBuffer("ccc"));
t.add(new StringBuffer("aaa"));
t.add(new StringBuffer("ddd"));
t.add(new StringBuffer("bbb"));
}
}
class MyComp implements Comparator<StringBuffer>
{ public int compare(StringBuffer sb1,StringBuffer sb2)
{ String s1 = sb1.toString();
String s2 = sb2.toString();
//return s2.compareTo(s1);
return -s1.compareTo(s2);
}
};
314 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Example :- write a program to insert String & StringBuffer object into TreeSet, where sorting is
increasing length order. If two objects are having same length then use alphabetical order.
import java.util.*;
class Test
{ TreeSet t = new TreeSet(new MyComp());
t.add("ratan");
t.add(new StringBuffer("sravya"));
t.add("anu");
t.add(new StringBuffer("suneelbabu"));
t.add("sri");
}
}
{ String s1 = o1.toString();
String s2 = o2.toString();
int l1=s1.length();
int l2=s2.length();
if (l1<l2)
{ return -1;
}
else if (l1>l2)
{ return 1;
}
else
{ return s1.compareTo(s2);
}
}
};
Example:- passing sortedset object to TreeSet constructor.
import java.util.*;
class Sravya
{ TreeSet<Integer> t=new TreeSet<Integer>();
t.add(20);
t.add(40);
t.add(10);

1. Introduced in the 1.0 version it’s a legacy class.
2. Heterogeneous data allowed for both key & value.
3. Duplicate keys are not allowed but values can be duplicated.
4. Every method is synchronized hence only one thread is allowed to access it is a Thread safe but
performance is decreased.
5. Null is not allowed for both key & Value , if we are trying to insert null values we will get
NullPointerException.
6. HashTable was made generic by JDK5.

Java.util.TreeMap:-
public class java.util.TreeMap extends java.util.AbstractMap
implements java.util.NavigableMap,java.lang.Cloneable, java.io.Serializable
1) This class is introduced in 1.2 version.
2) It allows homogeneous data if we are trying to insert heterogeneous data at runtime while perform
sorting JVM will generate ClassCastException.
4) Insertion order is not preserved it is based on some sorting order of keys.
5) The underlying data structure is red-black trees.
6) For empty treeset it is possible to insert null key once, but if the treeset contains data if we are
inserting null keys at runtime we will get NullPointerException but for the values any number of null
values insertion possible.
Constructors:-
TreeMap();
it will create empty treemap that will be sorted by using natural order of its keys.
TreeMap(java/util/Comparator<? super K>);
It create treemap that will be sorted by using customized sorting oder.
TreeMap(java/util/Map<? extends K, ? extends V>);
It create the treemap with specified data.
TreeMap(java/util/SortedMap<K, ? extends V>);
It creates the treemap by initializing sortedmap data.
Observations of TreeMap:
Case1:- TreeMap h = new TreeMap();
h.put(444,"ratan");
h.put(222,"anu");
h.put(111,"aaa");
System.out.println(h);//{111=aaa, 222=anu, 444=ratan}
In treemap when we insert the data that will be printed in sorting order based on key.
Case 2:- TreeMap h = new TreeMap();
h.put(444,"ratan");
h.put("ratan","aaa"); //java.lang.ClassCastException
Treemap allows homogeneous data, if we are inserting heterogeneous data while performing sorting it
will generate java.lang.ClassCastException.
h.put(444,"ratan");
h.put(null,"aaa"); //java.lang.NullPointerException
322 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
If the treemap contains data then we are adding null value hence while performing sorting it will
generate java.lang.NullPointerException(any object with comparisionof null it will generate
NullPointerException )
h.put(null,"aaa");
System.out.println(h);//{null=aaa}
In empty treemap it is possible to insert null value.
Example:-
import java.util.TreeMap;
import java.util.Set;
import java.util.Collection;
import java.util.Map.Entry;
class Test
{ TreeMap<String,String> tmain = new TreeMap<String,String>();
tmain.put("ratan","no1");
tmain.put("anu","no2");

Example :-
Ceiling()
it return current provided value or greater value but if treemap does not contains same or grater
value then it returns null .
floor():-
it returns current value or less value but if treemap does not contains same value or less then it
return null.
pollFirstEntry:- it removes first entry & it prints that entry.
pollLastEntry():- it removes last entry and it prints that entry.
import java.util.*;
class Test

Java.util.IdentityHashMap:-
public class java.util.IdentityHashMap extends java.util.AbstractMap
implements java.util.Map,java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable
It is same as hashmap except one difference,

In case of Hashmap JVM will use equals( ) method to identify duplicate keys.(it performs content
comparison)
In case of identityhashmap JVM will use == operator to identify the duplicate keys.(it perform
reference comparison)
Example:-
325 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
import java.util.*;
class Test
{ //equals() method to identify duplicate keys.
HashMap<Integer,String> h = new HashMap<Integer,String>();
h.put(new Integer(10),"ratan");
h.put(new Integer(10),"anu");
//== operator to identify duplicate keys.

IdentityHashMap<Integer,String> h1 = new IdentityHashMap<Integer,String>();
h1.put(new Integer(10),"ratan");
h1.put(new Integer(10),"anu");
System.out.println(h1);
}
}
E:\>java Test
{10=anu}
{10=anu, 10=ratan}
Java.util.WeakHashMap:-
public class java.util.WeakHashMap extends java.util.AbstractMap
WeakHashMap is same as HashMap except fallowing difference,

If an object is associated with hashmap that object is not destroyed even though it does not contains
any reference type.
But in case of weakhashmap if the object does not contains reference type that object iseligible for
garbage collector even though it associated with weakhashmap.

Java.util.Properties:-
 In standalone applications(JDBC) or web-applications(web sites) the data is frequently changing
like,
a. Database username
b. Database password
c. url
d. driver …etc
 in above scenario for every change must perform modifications in all .java files but it is
complex.to overcome this problem use properties file.
 Properties file is a normal text file with .properties extension & it contains key=value formatted
data but both key and value is string format.
 Once we done modifications on .properties file that modifications are reflected all the .java files.
Abc.properties :-
username = system
password = manager
driver = oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
trainer = Ratan

Networking(java.net package)
Introduction to networking:-
1) The process of connecting the resources (computers) together to share the data is called
networking.
2) Java.net is package it contains number of classes by using that classes we are able to
connection between the devices (computers) to share the information.
3) Java socket programming provides the facility to share the data between different
computing devices.
4) In the network we are having to components
a. Sender(source) : The person who is sending the data is called sender.
b. Receiver(destination) : The person who is receiving the data is called receiver
In the network one system can acts as a sender as well as receiver.
5) In the networking terminology we have client and server.
Client :- who takes the request & who takes the response is called client.
Server :- The server contains the project
1. It takes the request from the client
2. It identifies the requested resource
3. It process the request
4. It will generate the response to client
Categories of network:-
We are having two types of networks
1) Per-to-peer network.
2) Client-server network.
Client-server:- In the client server architecture always client system acts as a client and server system
acts as a server.
Peer-to-peer:- In the peer to peer client system sometimes behaves as a server, server system
sometimes behaves like a client the roles are not fixed.
Types of networks:-
Intranet:- It is also known as a private network. To share the information in limited area range
(within the organization) then we should go for intranet.
Extranet:- This is extension to the private network means other than the organization , authorized
persons able to access.
Internet:- It is also known as public networks. Where the data maintained in a centralized server
hence we are having more sharability. And we can access the data from anywhere else.
The frequently used terms in the networking:-

1) IP Address
2) URL(Uniform Resource Locator)
3) Protocol
4) Port Number
5) MAC address.
6) Connection oriented and connection less protocol
7) Socket.
329 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
IP Address:-
1) IP Address is a unique identification number given to the computer to identify the computer
uniquely in the network.
2) The IP Address is uniquely assigned to the computer it is should not duplicated.
3) The IP Address range is 0-255.
125.0.4.255 ----> Valid 124.654.5.6 ----> Invalid
4) Each and every website contains its own IP Address we can access the sites through the
names otherwise IP Address.
Site Name :-www.google.com IP Address :-74.125.224.72
Example:-
import java.net.*;
import java.util.*;
class Test
{ public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
System.out.println("please enter site name");
String sitename=s.nextLine();
InetAddress in=InetAddress.getByName(sitename);
System.out.println("the ip address is:"+in);
}
}
G:\ratan>java Test
please enter site name
www.google.com
the ip address is:www.google.com/216.58.199.196
G:\ratan>java Test
please enter site name
aaa
Exception in thread "main" java.net.UnknownHostException: aaa
Protocol:-
The protocol is a set of rules fallowed in communication.
 TCP(Transmission Control Protocol)(connection oriented protocol)
 UDP (User Data Gram Protocol)(connection less protocol)
 Telnet
 SMTP(Simple Mail Transfer Protocol)
 IP (Internet Protocol)
MAC (media access control):-

MAC address is a unique identifier for NIC (Network interface protocol). A network protocol can have
multiple NIC but one unique MAC.
Port number:
The port number is used to identify the different applications uniquely .And it is associated with the ip
address for communication between two applications.
330 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
URL(Uniform Resource Locator):-

1) URL is a class present in the java.net package.
2) By using the URL we are accessing some information present in the world wide web.
http://www.Sravyasoft.com:10/Corejava_ratan.asp
Protocol path port path

The URL contains information like
a. Protocol : http://
b. Server name IP address : www.Sravyasoft.com
c. Port number of the particular application and it is optional(:10)
d. File name or directory name Corejava_ratan.asp
Example:-
import java.net.*;
class Test
{ URL url=new URL("http://www.Sravyasoft.com:10/index.html");
System.out.println("protocal is:"+url.getProtocol());
System.out.println("host name is:"+url.getHost());
System.out.println("port number is:"+url.getPort());
System.out.println("path is:"+url.getPath());
System.out.println(url);
}
}
Communication using networking :-
In the networking it is possible to do two types of communications.
1) Connection oriented(TCP/IP communication)
2) Connection less(UDP Communication)
Connection Oriented:-
a) In this type of communication we are using combination of two protocols TCP,IP.
b) In this communication acknowledgement sent by receiver so it is reliable but slow.
To achieve the fallowing communication the java peoples are provided the fallowing classes.
a. Socket
b. ServerSocket
Connection Less :- (UDP)

1) UDP is a protocol by using this protocol we are able to send data without using Physical
Connection.
2) In this communication acknowledgement not sent by receiver so it is not reliable but
fast.
3) This is a light weight protocol because no need of the connection between the client and server .
To achieve the UDP communication the java peoples are provided the fallowing classes.
1. DataGrampacket.
2. DataGramSocket.
331 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Socket:-
1) Socket is used to create the connection between the client and server.
2) Socket is nothing but a combination of IP Address and port number.
3) The socket is created at client side.
Socket s=new Socket(int IPAddress, int portNumber);
Socket s=new Socket(“125.125.0.5”,123); Server IP Address. Server port number.
Socket s=new Socket(String HostName, int PortNumber); Socket s=new Socket(Sravyasoft,123);
Client.java:-
import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;
class Client
{ public static void main(String[] args)throws Exception
{ //to write the data to server
Socket s=new Socket("localhost",5555);
String str="ratan from client";
OutputStream os=s.getOutputStream();
PrintStream ps=new PrintStream(os);
ps.println(str); //write the data to server
//read the data from server
InputStream is=s.getInputStream();
BufferedReader br=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
String str1=br.readLine();
}
}
Server.java:-
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
class Server
{ //To read the data from client
ServerSocket ss=new ServerSocket(5555);
Socket s=ss.accept();
System.out.println("connection is created ");
Thread.sleep(2000);
//Read the data from client
InputStream is=s.getInputStream();
BufferedReader br=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
String data=br.readLine();
System.out.println(data);
Thread.sleep(2000);
//write the data to the client
data=data+"this is from server";
OutputStream os=s.getOutputStream();
PrintStream ps=new PrintStream(os);
ps.println(data);
}

Java.awt package
 AWT(Abstract Window Tool kit) is an API it supports graphical user interface programming.
 AWT components are platform dependent it displays the application according to the view of
operating system.
 By using java.awt package we are able to prepare static components to provide the dynamic
nature to the component use java.awt.event package.(it is a sub package of java.awt).
1. This application not providing very good look and feel hence the normal users facing problem
with these types of applications.
2. By using AWT we are preparing application these applications are called console based or CUI
application.
Note
Java.awt package is used to prepare static components.
Java.awt.event package is used to provide the life to the static components.
GUI(graphical user interface):-
1. It is a mediator between end user and the program.

2. AWT is a package it will provide very good predefined support to design GUI applications.
component :-
 The root class of java.awt package is Component class.
 Component is an object which is displayed pictorially on the screen.
Ex:- Button,Label,TextField......etc
Container:-
 it is a component in awt that contains another components like Button,TextField…etc
 Container is a sub class of Component class.
 The classes that extends container classes those classes are containers such as Frame, Dialog
and Panel.
Event:-
The event nothing but a action generated on the component or the change is made on the state
of the object.
Ex:-
Button clicked, Checkboxchecked, Itemselected in the list, Scrollbar scrolled
horizontal/vertically.
AWT Component Hierarchy:-
333 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Java.awt.Frame:-
Frame is a container it contains other components like title bar, Button, Text Field...etc.
334 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
 When we create a Frame class object. Frame will be created automatically with invisible mode,
so to provide the visible nature to the frame use setVisible() method of Frame class.
public void setVisible(boolean b)
where b==true visible mode
b==false means invisible mode.
 When we created a frame, the frame is created with initial size 0 pixel heights & 0 pixel width
hence it is not visible. To provide particular size to the Frame use setSize() method.
public void setSize(int width,int height)
 To provide title to the frame use, public void setTitle(String Title)
 When we create a frame, the default background color of the Frame is white. If you want to
provide particular color to the Frame we have to use the following method.
public void setBackground(color c)
Example-1:- There are two approaches to create Frame in java

1. By creating object of Frame class.
2. By extending the Frame class.
Approach 1:- Creation of Frame by creating Object of Frame class.

import java.awt.*;
class Demo
{ Frame f=new Frame();
f.setVisible(true);
f.setSize(400,400);
f.setBackground(Color.red);
f.setTitle("myframe");
}
};
Approach 2:- Taking user defined class by extending Frame class.

import java.awt.*;
class MyFrame extends Frame
{ MyFrame()
{ setVisible(true);
setSize(500,500);
setTitle("myframe");
setBackground(Color.green);
}
{ MyFrame f=new MyFrame();
}
}
Displaying text on the screen:-
1. To display some textual message on the frame override paint() method.
335 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
public void paint(Graphics g)
2. To set a particular font to the text use Font class present in java.awt package
Font f=new Font(String type , int style , int size);
Font f= new Font("arial",Font.Bold,30);
Example :-
import java.awt.*;
{ MyFrame t = new MyFrame();
t.setVisible(true);
t.setSize(500,500);
t.setTitle("myframe");
t.setBackground(Color.red);
}
{ Font f=new Font("arial",Font.ITALIC,25);
g.setFont(f);
g.drawString("hi ratan how r u",100,100);
}
}
 In above example when we create the MyFrame class object , jvm will executes MyFrame class
constructor just before this JVM will execute Frame class zero argument constructor.
 The Frame class zero argument constructor calling repaint() method & this method will access
predefined Frame class paint() method. But as per the requirement overriding paint() method
will be executed.

Preparation of components:-
1. Label: - Label is a constant text which is displayed along with a TextField or TextArea.
Constructor: Label l=new Label();
Label l=new Label(“user name”);
2. TextField:- TextField is an editable area & it is possible to provide single line of text.
Enter Button doesn’t work on TextField.
a. To set Text to the textarea : t.setText(“Sravya”);
b. To get the text form TextArea : String s=t.getText();
Constructors: TextFiled tx=new TextFiled();
TextField tx=new TextField(“ratan”);
3. TextArea:- TextArea is a Editable Area & enter button will work on TextArea.
Constructors: TextArea t=new TextArea();
TextArea t=new TextArea(int rows,int columns);
TextArea t=new TextArea(String text, int rows,int columns);
 To set Text to the textarea : ta.setText(“Sravya”);
 To get the text form TextArea : String s=ta.getText();
4. Button :- Used to perform operations by clicking.
Example :-
import java.awt.*;
class MyFrame
{ MyFrame()
f.setVisible(true);
f.setTitle("ratan");
f.setBackground(Color.red);
f.setSize(400,500);
f.setLayout(new FlowLayout()); //information about layout check next page
Label l1=new Label("user name:");
Label l2=new Label("user password:");
TextField tx1 = new TextField(30);

TextField tx2 = new TextField(30);
Button b = new Button("login");
f.add(l1);
f.add(tx1);
f.add(l2);
f.add(tx2);
f.add(b);
}
{ MyFrame f = new MyFrame();
}
}

5. Choice:- List is allows to select multiple items but choice is allow to select single Item.
Choice ch=new Choice();
 To add items to the choice : add()
 To remove item from the choice based on String : choice.remove(“HYD”);
 To remove the item based on the index position : choice.remove(2);
 To remove the all elements : ch.removeAll();
 To inset the data into the choice based on the position : choice.insert(2,”ratan”);
 To get selected item from the choice : String s=ch.getSelectedItem();
 To get the selected item index number : int a=ch.getSelectedIndex();
6. List: List is providing list of options to select.

CONSTRUCTOR:-
List l=new List(); It will creates the list by default size is four elements.
List l=new List(3); It will display the three items size and it is allow selecting the only one.
List l=new List(5,true); It will display five items and it is allow selecting the multiple items.
 To add the elements to the List : list.add(“c”);
 To add the elements to the List at specified index : list.add(“ratan”,0);
 To remove element from the List : list.remove(“c”);
 To get selected item from the List : String x=l.get SelectedItem();
 To get selected items from the List : String[] x=s.getSelectedItems()
Example :-
import java.awt.*;
class Test
f.setVisible(true); f.setTitle("ratan");
f.setBackground(Color.red); f.setSize(400,500);
f.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
//Choice information
Choice ch=new Choice();
ch.add("c"); ch.add("cpp"); ch.add("java");
ch.add(".net"); ch.remove(".net"); ch.remove(0);
ch.insert("ratan",2); f.add(ch);
System.out.println(ch.getItem(0));
System.out.println(ch.getItemCount());
//List information
List l=new List(3,true);
l.add("c"); l.add("cpp"); l.add("java"); l.add(".net");
l.add("ratan"); l.add("arun",0); l.remove(0); f.add(l);
System.out.println(l.getItem(0));
System.out.println(l.getItemCount());
}

7. Checkbox: - The user can select more than one checkbox at a time.
Checkbox cb2=new Checkbox(“MCA”);
Checkbox cb3=new Checkbox(“BSC”,true);
 To set a label to the CheckBox explicitly : cb.setLabel(“BSC”);
 To get the label of the checkbox : String str=cb.getLabel();
 To get state of the CheckBox : Boolean b=ch.getState();
8. RADIO BUTTON:-
 AWT does not provide any predefined support to create Radio Buttons directly.
 It is possible to create RadioButton by using two classes.
o CheckboxGroup
o Checkbox
step 1:- Create Checkbox group object. CheckboxGroup cg=new CheckboxGroup();
step 2:- pass Checkboxgroup object to the Checkbox class argument.
Checkbox cb1=new Checkbox(“male”,cg,true);
Checkbox cb2=new Checkbox(“female”,cg,false);
 To get the status of the RadioButton : String str=Cb.getState();
 To get Label of the RadioButton : String str=getLabel().
Example:-
import java.awt.*;
class Test
f.setVisible(true); f.setTitle("ratan");
f.setBackground(Color.red); f.setSize(400,500);
f.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
Label l1 = new Label("Qualifications:");

Label l2 = new Label("Gender:");
Checkbox cb1=new Checkbox("SSC",true);
Checkbox cb2=new Checkbox("DEGREE");
Checkbox cb3=new Checkbox("MCA");
Checkbox cb4=new Checkbox("BTECH");
f.add(l1); f.add(cb1); f.add(cb2); f.add(cb3); f.add(cb4);
System.out.println(cb1.getLabel());
System.out.println(cb2.getState());
CheckboxGroup cg=new CheckboxGroup();

Checkbox r1=new Checkbox("male",cg,true);
Checkbox r2=new Checkbox("female",cg,false);
f.add(l2); f.add(r1); f.add(r2);
System.out.println(cb1.getLabel());
System.out.println(cb1.getState());
}

Layout Managers:-
When we are trying to add the components into container without using layout manager the
components are overriding hence the last added component is visible on the container instead of all.
To overcome above problem to arrange the components into container in specific manner use
layout manager.
http://java.icmc.usp.br/books/ooc/html/gui_layout_manager.html
Definitions:-
The layout managers are used to arrange the components in a Frame in particular manner. or
A layout manager is an object that controls the size and the position of components in a container
Different layouts in java,
1) java.awt.FlowLayout
2) java.awt.BorderLayout
3) java.awt.GridLayout
4) java.awt.CardLayout
5) java.awt.GridBagLayout
java.awt.FlowLayout
The FlowLayout is used to arrange the components into row by row format. Once the first row is
filled with components then it is inserted into second row. And it is the default layout of the applet.
Java.awt.BorderLayout:-
The BoderLayout is dividing the frame into five areas north,south,east,west,center so we can
arrange the components in these five areas.
To represent these five areas borderlayout is providing the fallowing 5-constans
public static final java.lang.String NORTH;

public static final java.lang.String SOUTH;
public static final java.lang.String EAST;
public static final java.lang.String WEST;
public static final java.lang.String CENTER;
import java.awt.*;
{ Button b1,b2,b3,b4,b5;
MyFrame()
{ //this keyword is optional because all methods are current class methods only
this.setSize(400,400);
this.setVisible(true);
this.setTitle("BorderLayout");
this.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
b1=new Button("Boys");
b2=new Button("Girls");
b3=new Button("management");
b4=new Button("Teaching Staff");
b5=new Button("non-teaching staff");
this.add("North",b1);
this.add("Center",b2);
340 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
this.add("South",b3);
this.add("East",b4);
this.add("West",b5);
}
}
class Demo
}
};
Example 2: project level reduce the length of the code.

import java.awt.*;
class Test
{ Frame f = new Frame("BorderLayout");
f.setVisible(true);
f.setSize(300,300);
f.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
f.add(new Button("NORTH"),BorderLayout.NORTH);
f.add(new Button("SOUTH"),BorderLayout.SOUTH);
f.add(new Button("EAST"),BorderLayout.EAST);
f.add(new Button("WEST"),BorderLayout.WEST);
f.add(new Button("CENTER"),BorderLayout.CENTER);
}

Event delegation model:-

1. When we create a component the components visible on the screen but it is not possible to
perform any action on that component because those components are by default static.
Example: Whenever we create a Frame it can be minimized and maximized and resized but it is
not possible to close the Frame even if we click on Frame close Button. Because frame is a static
component so it is not possible to perform actions on the Frame.
2. To make static component into dynamic component we have to add some actions to the Frame.
To attach these actions to the Frame component we need event delegation model.
Event: Event is nothing but a particular action generated on the particular component.
1. When an event generates on the component the component is unable to respond because
component can't listen the event.
2. To make the component listen the event we have to add listeners to the component. Wherever
we are adding listeners to the component the component is able to respond based on the
generated event.
3. java.awt.event package contains listeners and event classes for event handling.
4. The listeners are different from component to component.
A component delegate event to the listener and listener is designates the event to appropriate
method by executing that method only the event is handled. This is called Event Delegation Model.
Added listener to the Handling method

Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Note: -
To attach a particular listener to the Frame we have to use foll
owing method
Public void AddxxxListener(xxxListener e)
Where xxx may be ActionListener,windowListener
The Appropriate Listener for the Frame is “windowListener”
ScrollBar:-
1. By using ScrollBar we can move the Frame up and down.
ScrollBar s=new ScrollBar(int type)
Type of scrollbar
1. VERTICAL ScrollBar
2. HORIZONTAL ScrollBar
To create a HORIZONTAL ScrollBar:-
ScrollBar sb=new ScrollBar(ScrollBar.HORIZONTAL);
To get the current position of the scrollbar we have to use the following method.
public int getValue()
To create a VERTICAL ScrollBar:-
ScrollBar sb=new ScrollBar(ScrollBar.VERTICAL);

Event handling code:-

It is possible to write the event handling code in fallowing ways
5. In different class.
6. Same class
7. By using anonymous inner classes.
Steps to perform event handling:-

1) Prepare the required components.
2) Implements the listener interface override the methods to write the even handling code.
3) Add the listener to the component.
Applying WindowListener on the Frame :-

The Frame contains WindowLister it contains 7-methods listed below.
windowActivated(WindowEvent e)
Invoked when the Window is set to be the active Window.
windowClosed(WindowEvent e)
Invoked when a window has been closed as the result of calling dispose on the window.
windowClosing(WindowEvent e)
Invoked when the user attempts to close the window from the window's system menu.
windowDeactivated(WindowEvent e)
Invoked when a Window is no longer the active Window.
windowDeiconified(WindowEvent e)
Invoked when a window is changed from a minimized to a normal state.
windowIconified(WindowEvent e)
Invoked when a window is changed from a normal to a minimized state.
windowOpened(WindowEvent e)
Invoked the first time a window is made visible.
In below example we are providing even handling code in separate class :-

***PROVIDING CLOSING OPTION TO THE FRAME****
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
{ MyFrame()
{ this.setSize(400,500); //here this keyword is optional because it is a current class
this.setTitle("myframe");
this.setBackground(Color.green);
this.addWindowListener(new myclassimpl());
}
}
class myclassimpl implements WindowListener
{ public void windowActivated(WindowEvent e)
{ System.out.println("window activated");
}
public void windowDeactivated(WindowEvent e)
{ System.out.println("window deactivated");
}
345 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
public void windowIconified(WindowEvent e)

{ System.out.println("window iconified");
}
public void windowDeiconified(WindowEvent e)
{ System.out.println("window deiconified");
}
public void windowClosed(WindowEvent e)
{ System.out.println("window closed");
}
public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e)
{ System.out.println("window closing");
System.exit(0);
}
public void windowOpened(WindowEvent e)
{ System.out.println("window Opened");
}
};
class Demo
}
};
**PROVIDING CLOSEING OPTION TO THE FRAME BY USING WINDOWADAPTOR CLASS **

In above example when our implements the windowListener interface then we must
override all (7)the methods of WindowListener interface .but to close the frame we required only
one method that is windowCloseing( ) method.
To overcome above limitation use WindowAdaptor class it contains all empty
implementations of interface methods.
Note : if our class implements WindowListener interface we must override all the methods of
windowListener interface . But if our class extends windowAdaptor class it is possible to override
application required methods.
import java.awt.*;
{ MyFrame()
{ this.setVisible(true);
this.setBackground(Color.red);
this.setTitle("MyFrame");
this.addWindowListener(new Listenerimpl());
}
};
class Listenerimpl extends WindowAdapter
{ public void windowClosing(WindowEvent we)
{ System.exit(0);

}
};

}
};
Writing event handling code in anonymous inner class:-

import java.awt.*;
{ MyFrame()
this.setTitle("Myframe");
this.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter()
{ public void windowClosing(WindowEvent we)
{ System.exit(0);
}
});
}
}
class Demo
}
};
***WRITE SOME TEXT INTO THE FRAME********

import java.awt.*;
{ MyFrame()
this.setTitle("rattaiah");
}
{ Font f=new Font("arial",Font.BOLD,20);
g.setFont(f);
this.setForeground(Color.green);
g.drawString("HI BTECH ",100,100);

Example :-ACTIONLISTENER
The below example we are preforming addition and multiplications when we click add & mul
buttons. So whenever we clicking button the button is able to listen the even to do this add the Listener
to button.
The appropriate listener for button is ActionListener.

SWINGS
1. Sun Micro Systems introduced AWT to prepare GUI applications but awt components not satisfy
the client requirement.
2. An alternative to AWT Netscape Communication Corporation has provided set of GUI
components in the form of IFC(Internet Foundation Class) but IFC also provide less performance
and it is not satisfy the client requirement.
3. In the above context[sun & Netscape] combine and introduced common product to design GUI
applications is called JFS(java foundation classes) then it is renamed as swings.
Differences between awt and Swings:

 AWT components are platform dependent but Swings components are platform independent
because these components are completely written in java .
 AWT components are heavyweight component but swing components are light weight
component.
 AWT components consume more number of system resources Swings consume less number of
system resources.
 AWT is provided less number of components whereas a swing provides more number of
components.
 AWT doesn’t provide Tooltip Test support but swing components have provided Tooltip test
support.
 In awt to close the window : windowListener windowAdaptor
In case of swing use small piece of code.
f.setDefaultCloseOption(JFrame.EXIT-ON-CLOSE);
 In case of AWT we will add the GUI components in the Frame directly but Swing we will add all
GUI components to panes to accommodate GUI components.
 The awt classes & interfaces are present in java.awt packages & swing classes are present in
javax.swing package.

Java.awt.Applet
 The applet is runs on browser window to display the dynamic content on browser window.
 The applet does not contains main methods to start the execution but it contains life cycle
methods these methods are automatically called by web browser.
 To run the applet in browser window we need to install plugin in.
The applet contains four life cycle methods

a. Init ()
b. Start()
c. Stop()
d. Destroy()
These methods are called by applet viewer or web browser

Init() : used to initialize the applet and it called only once.
Start() : it invoked after init() method to start the applet then the applet become visible.
Stop() : it is used to stop the applet then the applet become invisible.
Destroy(): it called after stop method it gives to applet last chance to cleanup.
Java.awt.component class provide one life cycle method of applet

Public void paint(Graphics g)
The above method used to paint the applet to print the data in applet.
367 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Steps to design the application:-

1. Create the applet by extending Applet class.
2. Then configure the applet in html code.
Applet First Application:-

Test.java:-
import java.applet.Applet;
import java.awt.*;
public class Test extends Applet {
public void paint(Graphics g) {
g.drawString("Hello, world this is applet first example!", 150, 150);
}
}
Firstapplet.html
<html>
<body>
<applet code="Test.class" height="300" width="300"/>
</body>
</html>
Execution : appletviewer Firstapplet.html
Running applet:-
It is possible to run the applet in two ways
1) By using html file
Configure the applet in html file then open the html file in browser window.
Click on Firstapplet.html then the applet is displayed on browser window.
2) By using applet viewer tool

Run the application by using below command
Appletviewer Firstapplet.html
368 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Application 2:
Test.java:-
import java.awt.*;
import java.applet.*;
public class Test extends Applet
{ String msg="";
g.setFont(f);
g.drawString("Durga Software Solutions "+msg,100,200);
}
public void init()
{ msg=msg+"initialization"+" ";
System.out.println("init()");
}
public void start()
{ msg=msg+"starting"+" ";
System.out.println("start()");
}
public void stop()
{ msg=msg+"stoping";
System.out.println("stop()");
}
public void destroyed()
{ msg=msg+"destroyed";
System.out.println("destroy()");
}
};
Configuration of Applet:-

INTERNATIONALIZATION (i18N)
I18N enables the application to support in different languages.
 Internationalization is also called as i18n because in between I & n 18 characters are

present.
 By using Locale class and ResourceBundle class we are enable I18n on the application.
 Local is nothing but language + country.
 For making your application to support I18n we need to prepare local specific properties
file it means for English one properties file & hindi one properties file …etc.
 The property file format is key = value
 The properties file name fallowed pattern bundlenamewith language code and country
code.
o ApplicationMessages_en_US.properties.
 In single web application contains different properties file all the properties files key
must be same and values are changed local to Locale.
Java.util.Locale:-
 Locale Object is decide properties file based on argument you passed and then it display
locale specific details based on Properties file entry.
Locale l = new Locale(args[0],args[1]);
Locale l = new Locale(en,US);

{ Locale l = Locale.FRANCE;
System.out.println(l.getLanguage());
System.out.println(l.getCountry());

Java.util.ResourceBundle:-
Creates ResourceBundle object by passing Local object then by using ResourceBoundle we are
able to get data form properties file that is decide by Locale.
 It is possible to create ResourceBundle Object without specifying Locale it will take
default properties file with default language.
ResourceBundle bundle1 = ResourceBundle.getBundle("Application");
 It is possible to create ResourceBundle Object by specifying default Locale object.
ResourceBundle bundle2 = ResourceBundle.getBundle("Application",Locale.FRANCE);
 It is possible to create ResourceBundle object by creating new user Locale Object
ResourceBundle bundle3 = ResourceBundle.getBundle("Application",new Locale("ratan","RATAN"));

Application 1:-
Steps to design application:-
Step-1:- prepare properties files to support different languages and countries.
Application.properties default properties file(base properties file)
Application_fr_FR.properties French properties file
Allication_ratan_RATAN.properties Ratan country properties file
Step 2:- create locale object it identified particular language and country and it decides
execution of properties file.
Locale l = new Locale(“en”,”US”);
The above statement specify language is English and country united states
Locale l = new Locale("fr","CA");
Locale x = new Locale("fr","FR");
The above two locales specifies France language in Canada & France
Instead of hard coding language name and country name get the values from command prompt
at runtime.
Public static void main(String[ ] args)
{ Locale l = new Locale(args[0],args[1]);
}
D:\5batch>java Test fr FR
Step 3:-create ResourceBundle by passing Locale object.

//if no local is Matched this property file is executed [default property file]
//it create ResourceBundle with local that is already defined [France properties file ]
ResourceBundle bundle2 = ResourceBundle.getBundle("Application",Locale.FRANCE);
Step 4:- fetch the text form ResourceBundle

String msg = Bundle.getString(“wish”);
Application.properties:-
countryname = USA
lang = eng
Application_fr_FR.properties:-
countryname = canada
lang = france
Allication_ratan_RATAN.properties:-
countryname=Ratan
lang= ratan

Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
Test.java:-
import java.util.*;
class Test
{
//if no local is Matched this property file is executed
//it create ResourceBundle with local that is already defined
Locale l1 = Locale.FRANCE;
ResourceBundle bundle2 = ResourceBundle.getBundle("Application",l1);
//it creates ResourceBundle with new user created Locale
Locale l2 = new Locale("ratan","RATAN")
ResourceBundle bundle3 = ResourceBundle.getBundle("Application",l2);
System.out.println(bundle1.getString("countryname")+"--"+bundle1.getString("lang"));
}
}
Output:-
D:\5batch>java Test
USA--eng
Canada--france
Ratan--Ratan
APPLICATION 2:-
import java.util.*;

Application before internationalization:-
import java.util.*;
class Test
{
{ System.out.println("hello");
System.out.println("i like you");
System.out.println("i hate you");
}
}
We are decide to print this messages in different languages like Germany, French…..etc then we must
translate the code in different languages by moving the message out of source code to text file it looks
the program need to be internationalized(supporting different languages).

JVM Architecture:-
Class loader subsystem:-

1. It is used to load the classes and interfaces.
2. It verifies the byte code instructions.
3. It allots the memory required for the program.
Runtime data area:-this is the memory resource used by the JVM and it is 5 types
Method Area:-It is used to store the class data and method data.
Heap area:-It is used to store the Objects.
Runtime data areas shared among all threads.
Java stacks:-
381 | P a g e
Durgasoft Mr. Ratan
 Whenever new thread is created for each and every new thread the JVM will creates PC(program
coubter) register and stack.
 If a thread executing java method the value of pc register indicates the next instruction to
execute.
 Stack will stores method invocations of every thread. The java method invocation includes local
variables and return values and intermediate calculations.
 The each and every method entery will be stored in stack. And the stack contains grounp of
enteries and each and every entry stored in one stack frame hence stack is group of stack
frames.
 Whenever the method complets the entry is automatically deleted from the stach so whatever
the functionalities declared in method it is applicable only for respective methods.
Java native method stack is used to store the native methods invocations.
Runtime data areas exclusive to each thread.
Native method interface:-

Native method interface is a program that connects native methods libraries (C header files)
with JVM for executing native methods.
Native method library: It contains native libraries information.
Execution engine:-
It is used to execute the instructions are available in the methods of loaded classes.
It contains JIT(just in time compiler) and interpreter used to convert byte code instructions into machine
understandable code.
