Study Notes
Object-Oriented Programming in Java (BCA30108)
- Inheritance: A fundamental OOP concept enabling creation of new classes (subclasses) inheriting properties and behaviors from existing classes (superclasses). This promotes code reusability and hierarchical structure.
Types of Inheritance
-
Single Inheritance: A subclass inherits from only one superclass.
- Diagram illustrating the relationship between base class and derived class.
- Example code demonstrating single inheritance. Output showcasing both parent and child class methods being called.
-
Multiple Inheritance: A subclass inherits from multiple superclasses.
-
Multilevel Inheritance: A subclass inherits from a subclass, creating a chain of inheritance.
- Diagram illustrating this.
- Example code exemplifying this, with output showing chain of inheritance.
-
Hierarchical Inheritance: Multiple subclasses inherit from a single superclass (base class). - Diagram illustrating this.
- Example code for hierarchical inheritance. Output illustrating call to parent methods by subclass.
-
Hybrid Inheritance: A combination of multiple inheritance types.
- Diagram illustrating this form of inheritance.
Use of Keywords: super
and final
-
super
Keyword:- Used to access members (variables and methods) of a superclass from a subclass.
- Used to call constructors of a superclass.
- Code examples showing usage of
super
for method calls and constructor calls within a subclass.
-
final
Keyword:- To prevent a class from being inherited.
- Used to prevent a method from being overridden in a subclass.
- Used to prevent a variable from being reassigned after initialization.
- Code examples.
Dynamic Method Dispatch (Polymorphism)
- Dynamic method dispatch allows methods to be called on objects based on their actual type at runtime, not compile time.
- This achieves polymorphism.
- Example demonstrating how calling the method on different subclasses returns different outputs.
- Code illustration.
Abstract Classes and Methods
- Abstract class cannot be instantiated directly (can't create objects from it).
- Abstract methods do not have implementation but provide a signature for subclasses to implement.
- Abstract classes can be used to enforce a common interface.
- Code examples.
Interfaces
- An interface defines a set of methods that a class must implement.
- Interfaces define a blueprint for classes.
- Classes can implement multiple interfaces.
- Code examples.
Packages
- Packages are namespaces that organize classes and interfaces logically.
- Creating packages, importing packages, member access control mechanisms are demonstrated by code.
