Study Notes
- Unit 2 discusses classes and objects in Java, as taught at the Instituto Tecnológico de TizimÃn.
Class Definition
- A class defines a set of objects with similar characteristics.
- Classes are templates for object creation.
- Classes act as a container for data (variables or member properties).
- Classes contain operations to manipulate data (functions/methods).
Class Declaration
- Defining the class requires class declaration and a class body.
- A minimal class declaration needs the "class" keyword and a class name.
Class Members
- The body of a class contains variable declarations and method definitions.
- Variable declarations need a data type and a name.
- Method implementations include a declaration and a body.
- Methods declared within a class have full access to the class's member variables.
Access Specifiers
- Classes protect variables & methods from access by other objects.
- Java has 4 access levels: public, private, protected, and friendly.
Public Access
- Any class can access public member variables and methods.
Private access
- The most restrictive access level
- Only the class where they are defined can access private members.
Protected Access
- Allows access by the class itself, subclasses, and other classes within the same package
- package is relating to related classes.
Friendly access
- The access level used if none are specified
- Allows access from classes in the same package.
Class Scope
- Public: accessible from any class, in or out of the package.
- Default: only accessible from within the same package.
Object Creation
-
Classes need to be instantiated before they can be used
-
Objects are references(pointers) and defining on allocates memory and points to null
-
Defining an object will define a pointer, initially pointing to a null memory address.
-
The statement
Alumno a1 = new Alumno();
involves: -
Declaring/defining the object
-
Creating the object (with "new")
-
Calling the constructor
Constructors
-
Java classes have special methods called Constructors that initialize new objects.
-
Java supports method name overloading, allowing multiple constructors with the same name, but differing arguments.
-
Constructors differ in type and number of arguments.
-
The system can automatically provide the default constructor
-
The Constructor that does not need arguments in all classes.
-
Classes do not require programmer-defined constructors because the system provides a default one.
-
Destructors are unneeded because JAVA handles the garbage collection of memory by removing unused objects.
"This" Keyword
- The keyword "this" references class members of the specific class.
Predefined Classes
- Java provides specific packages and classes
- Java provides "Math", "String" and "JFrame" packages.
- java.lang.Math: abs(), max(), min() - No Import is Required
- java.lang.String: charAt(), concat(), indexOf() - No Import is Required
- javax.swing.JFrame: setSize(), setVisible(), setDefaultCloseOperation() - Import is Required
Packages/Libraries
- Package declaration:
package <directory.packageDir>;
statement should be the first line in the source file. - To declare a new package
import <directoryName.packageName.ClassName>;
statement is used to include a list of package with specified Class name.
Exceptions
- Java uses exceptions for error handling and management.
- An exception is an event disrupting the normal program flow during execution.
