Core Java Notes
Core Java Notes
Software is a development process which converts the imaginaries into reality by writing
comes set of programs.
Day - 2:
In IT we develop two types of applications. They are stand alone applications and distributed
applications.
A stand alone application is one which runs in the context of local disk. All stand alone
applications are not sharable. System software and application software comes under stand alone
applications.
System software is used for developing functionality of hardware devices. Examples are C
and ALP (Assembly Language Programming).
Application software is used for developing organizations oriented applications. This is also
known as backend softwares. Examples are dbase, dbase III plus, FoxPro, oracle versions
released till now.
Internet software is used for developing distributed applications.
A distributed application is one which can be accessed across the globe. Distributed application
is also one which runs in the contest of the World Wide Web. To develop distributed applications we
must use client-server architecture.
In client-server architecture we must hare at least two programs they are client program and
server program. A client program is one which always makes a request to get the service from the
server. A server program is one which will do three operations receiving the request from client,
processing the client request and sending the response to the client.
All the above three operations are performed by the server concurrently. In order to exchange
the data between client and server we must use a protocol called http (hypertext transfer protocol).
Protocol is a set of values which are defined to exchange the data between client and server
either locally or remotely.
In order to develop distributed applications, two software companies came forward whose
names are Microsoft System and Sun Micro System.
Day - 3:
Microsoft System has developed a technology called DOT NET and Sun Micro System has
developed a technology called JAVA. Both this technologies are called distributed technologies.
The technology DOT NET will run only on that operating systems which are provided by
Microsoft (as on today). Hence DOT NET technology is platform dependent technology. Whereas, the
technology called JAVA will run on all operating systems irrespective of their providers hence JAVA
is called platform independent technology.
The slogan of JAVA is Write Ones Reuse/Run Anywhere (WORA).
DOT NET technology is not freely downloadable whereas JAVA freely downloadable. DOT
NET supports Microsoft developed design patterns (general designed patterns are not supported)
whereas JAVA supports all the design patterns which are available in IT.
Design pattern is a predefined and proved rule by third party industry experts to avoid the
receiving problems which are occurring in software development.
History of JAVA:
JAVA is a distributed technology developed by James Gosling, Patric Naugton, etc., at Sun
Micro System has released lot of rules for JAVA and those rules are implemented by JavaSoft Inc,
USA (which is the software division of Sun Micro System) in the year 1990. The original name of JAVA
is OAK (which is a tree name). In the year 1995, OAK was revised and developed software called
JAVA (which is a coffee seed name).
JAVA released to the market in three categories J2SE (JAVA 2 Standard Edition), J2EE (JAVA 2
Enterprise Edition) and J2ME (JAVA 2 Micro/Mobile Edition).
i. J2SE is basically used for developing client side applications/programs.
ii. J2EE is used for developing server side applications/programs.
iii. J2ME is used for developing server side applications/programs.
If you exchange the data between client and server programs (J2SE and J2EE), by default JAVA is
having on internal support with a protocol called http. J2ME is used for developing mobile
applications and lower/system level applications. To develop J2ME applications we must use a
protocol called WAP (Wireless Applications Protocol).
Day - 4:
FEATURES of java:
1. Simple
2. Platform independent
3. Architectural neutral
4. Portable
5. Multi-threading
6. Distributed
7. Networked
8. Robust
9. Dynamic
10. Secured
11. High performance
12. Interpreted
13. Object Oriented Programming Language
1. Simple: JAVA is simple because of the following factors:
i. JAVA is free from pointers hence we can achieve less development time and less
execution time [whenever we write a JAVA program we write without pointers and
internally it is converted into the equivalent pointer program].
ii. Rich set of API (application protocol interface) is available to develop any complex
application.
iii. The software JAVA contains a program called garbage collector which is always used to
collect unreferenced (unused) memory location for improving performance of a JAVA
program. [Garbage collector is the system JAVA program which runs in the background
along with regular JAVA program to collect unreferenced memory locations by running
at periodical interval of times for improving performance of JAVA applications.
iv. JAVA contains user friendly syntaxs for developing JAVA applications.
2. Platform Independent:
A program or technology is said to be platform independent if and only if which can run on
all available operating systems.
The languages like C, Cpp are treated as platform dependent languages since these
languages are taking various amount of memory spaces on various operating systems [the
operating system dos understands everything in the form of its native format called Mozart (MZ)
whereas the operating system Unix understands everything in its negative format called
embedded linking format (elf). When we write a C or Cpp program on dos operating and if we
try to transfer that program to Unix operating system, we are unable to execute since the format
of these operating systems are different and more over the C, Cpp software does not contain
any special programs which converts one format of one operating system to another format of
other operating system].
The language like JAVA will have a common data types and the common memory spaces on
all operating systems and the JAVA software contains the special programs which converts the
format of one operating system to another format of other operating system. Hence JAVA
language is treated as platform independent language.
DA Y - 5 :
[JAVA language is also treated as server independent language since the server side program
can run on any of the server which is available in the real world (web server or application
server). JAVA can retrieve or store the data in any one of the data base product which is
available in rest world irrespective of their vendors (developers) hence JAVA language is product
independent language.
In order to deal with server side program from the client side, we can use C language client
program, Cpp client program, DOT NET client program, etc. hence JAVA language is a simple,
platform independent, server independent, data base/product independent and language
independent programming language].
3. Architectural Neutral:
A language or technology is said to be architectural neutral which can run on any available
processors in the real world. The languages like C, Cpp are treated as architectural dependent.
The language like JAVA can run on any of the processor irrespective of their architecture and
vendor.
4. Portable:
A portable language is one which can run on all operating systems and on all processors
irrespective their architectures and providers. The languages like C, Cpp are treated as non-
portable languages whereas the language JAVA is called portable language.
5. Multi-Threading:
Day - 6:
Definitions:
1. A flow of control is known as thread.
2. A multi-threaded program is one in which there exists multiple flow of controls i.e., threads.
3. A program is said to be multi-threaded program if and only of there exists n number of sub-
programs. For each and every sub-program there exists a separate flow of control. All such
flow of controls are executing concurrently. Such flow of controls is known as threads. Such
type of applications is known as multi-threading applications.
4. The languages like C, Cpp are treated as threads as single threaded modeling languages
(STML). SMTL are those in which there exists single flow of control.
5. The languages like JAVA and DOT NET are treated as multi- threaded modeling languages
(MTML). MTML are those in which there exist multiple flows of controls.
6. Whenever we write a JAVA program there exists by default two threads. They are
foreground/child thread and background/main/parent thread.
7. A foreground thread is one which always executes user defined sub-programs. In a JAVA
program there is a possibility of existing n number of foreground threads.
8. A background thread is one which always monitors the status of foreground thread. In each
and every JAVA program there exists only one background thread.
9. Hence background thread will be created first and later foreground thread will be created.
6. Distributed:
A service is a said to be a distributed service which runs in multiple servers and that service
can be accessed by n number of clients across the globe. In order to develop distributed
applications we must require architecture called trusted network architecture. To develop these
applications we require a technology called J2EE. Distributed applications are preferred by large
scale organizations.
Day -7:
7. Networked:
In real world we have two types of networks. They are un-trusted networks and trusted
networks.
Un-trusted networks:
A network is said to be un-trusted network in which there exists n number of inter
connected non-autonomous architecture. Un-trusted network is also known as LAN. Using this
network architecture, we develop centralized applications. A centralized application is one which
runs on single server and it can be access in limited graces. In order to develop centralized
applications we may use a technology called J2SE and these kinds of applications are preferred
by small scale organization.
Trusted network:
A network is said to be trusted network in which there exists n number of inter connected
autonomous architecture. Trusted network is also known as WAN. Using this network, we can
develop distributed applications. A distributed application is one which runs on multiple servers
and it can be access in unlimited graces. In order to develop distributed applications we may use
a technology called J2EE and these kinds of applications are preferred by large scale
organization.
When we represent the data in object oriented programming language we get the security.
Examples of object oriented programming languages are LISP, ADA, ALGOL, SMALLTALK, OBJECT
COBOL, OBJECT PASCAL, Cpp, JAVA, DOT NET, etc. In order to say any language is an object oriented
programming language it has to satisfy 8 principles of OOPs.
OOPs Principles:
1. Class.
2. Object.
3. Data Abstraction.
4. Data Encapsulation.
5. Inheritance.
6. Polymorphism.
7. Dynamic Binding.
8. Message Passing.
Day - 8:
1. CLASS: A class is a way of binding the data and associated methods in a single unit.
Any JAVA program if we want to develop then that should be developed with respective
class only i.e., without class there is no JAVA program.
In object oriented programmings, generally we write two types of methods. They are
member methods and non-member methods.
A member method is one which is comes under the scope of the class. In JAVA we use
only member methods.
Non-member methods are those which are not comes under the scope of the class. JAVA
does not allow non-member methods at all.
Here, class is a keyword which is used for developing or creating user defined data types.
Clsname represents a JAVA valid variable name and it is treated as name of the class. Class names
are used for creating objects.
Class contains two parts namely variable declaration and method definitions. Variable
declaration represents what type of data members which we use as a part of the class. Method
definition represents the type of methods which we used as the path of the class to perform an
operation.
By making use of the variables, which are declared inside the class? Every operation in JAVA
must be defined with in the class only i.e., outside definition is not
possible
Whenever we define a class there is no memory space for data members of the class. Memory
space will be created for the data members of the class when we create object.
NOTE:
1. In JAVA memory space for the data members will be creating on heap memory (Dynamic
memory).
2. Memory space for methods will be creating on stack memory (that too when we call the
methods).
3. All constants of any JAVA program is available in associative memory (retrieving data from
associative memory is negligible).
4. The class definition exists only one time but whose objects can exists many number of times
i.e., a class is acting as a formula form.
Day - 9:
2. OBJECT: In order to store the data for the data members of the class, we must create an object.
1. Instance (instance is a mechanism of allocating sufficient amount of memory space for data
members of a class) of a class is known as an object.
2. Class variable is known as an object.
3. Grouped item (grouped item is a variable which allows us to store more than one value) is
known as an object.
4. Value form of a class is known as an object.
5. Blue print of a class is known as an object.
6. Logical runtime entity is known as an object.
7. Real world entities are called as objects.
NOTE:
JAVA always follows dynamic memory allocation but not static memory allocation.
In order to create a memory space in JAVA we must use an operator called new. This new
operator is known as dynamic memory allocation operator.
Clsname represents name of the class. Objname represents JAVA valid variable name
treated as object. New is called dynamic memory allocation operator.
Clsname () represents constructor. The new operator will perform two standard
actions. They are:
i. It allocates sufficient amount of memory space for the data members of the class.
ii. It takes an address of the class and stored in the left hand side variable of syntax-1.
When an object is declared where value is null. Since, there is no memory space for data
members of the class. When the object is referenced the value of the object is not null. Since,
memory space is created for the data members of the class.
Class Object
1) A class is a way of binding the data and 1) Class variable is known as an object.

2) Whenever we start executing a JAVA 2) After loading the class into main

loader subsystem (a part of JVM) only
once.
3) When the class id defined there is no 3) When an object is created we get the
memory space for data members of a memory space for data members of the
class. class.
3. Data Abstraction:
Data abstraction is a mechanism of retrieving the essential details without dealing with
background details.
Day - 10:
NOTE:
In real world we have three levels of abstractions. They are physical level abstraction,
conceptual/logical level abstraction and view level abstraction.
Physical level abstraction is one; it always deals with physical organization architecture of
the application. For example, in real world an application designing of any problem comes
under physical level abstraction.
Conceptual/logical level abstraction is one it always deals with what kind of data we
are entering without dealing with physical architecture of the application. For
example, entering the data into the database, writing the coding and applying testing
principle
comes under conceptual level abstraction.
View level abstraction deals with what kind of data we are retrieving without dealing with
both conceptual level abstraction and physical level abstraction. For example, retrieving the
data from the data base in various combinations. All internet users come under view level
abstraction.
4. Data Encapsulation:
Data encapsulation is the process of wrapping up on data and associated methods in a
single unit.
Data encapsulation is basically used for achieving data/information hiding i.e., security.
When we want to send the data from client to the server we must always send in the
form of JAVA object only. Since, by default the JAVA object is in encrypted form (we
should not send the data from client to the server in the form of fundamental data).
5. Inheritance:
Inheritance is the process of taking the features (data members + methods) from one class to
another class.
The class which is giving the features is known as base/parent class.
The class which is taking the features is known as derived/child/sub class.
Instance is known as sub classing or derivation or extendable classes or reusability.
Advantages of INHERITANCE:
I. Application development time is very less.
II. Redundancy (repetition) of the code is reducing. Hence we can get less memory cost and
consistent results.
III. Instrument cost towards the project is reduced.
IV. We can achieve the slogan write ones reuse/run anywhere (WORA) of JAVA.
Day - 11:
An intermediate base class is one, in one context it acts as bass class and in another context
it acts as derived class.
6. Polymorphism:
Polymorphism is a process of representing one form in many forms.
In object oriented programmings, we have two types of polymorphism. They are compile
time polymorphism and run time polymorphism.
JAVA does not support compile time polymorphism but JAVA supports only run time
polymorphism.
In the above diagram we have a single sum method but it is defined in many forms hence
that method is known as polymorphic method.
7. Dynamic Binding:
Dynamic binding is a mechanism of binding an appropriate version of a derived class which
is inherited from base class with base class object.
Every real time application will be developed with concept of polymorphism and executed
with the concept of dynamic binding.
Dynamic binding is basically used to reduce the amount of memory space for improving the
performance of JAVA applications.
1) C1 O1 = new C1();
2) O1.sum();
3) O1 = new C2();
4) O1.sum();
5) O1 = new C3();
6) O1.sum();
In the line numbers 1, 3 and 5 the object oven contains address of c1, c2 and c3 classes
respectively one at a time. Hence that object is known as polymorphic object. In the line numbers 2,
4 and 6 the statement O1.sum () is known as polymorphic statement.
NOTE:
Function overriding = function heading is same but function definition is different.
A function is said to be overloaded function if and only if function name is same but its
signature (signature represents number of parameters, type of parameters and order of
parameters) is different.
Day - 12:
8. Message Passing:
Definitions:
i. Exchanging the data between multiple objects is known as message passing.
ii. Message passing is the process of exchanging the data between two remote/local objects for
a period of time across the network (trusted) for generating multiple requests for obtaining
multiple responses for performing a meaningful operation.
Data types are used for representing the data in main memory of the computer.
In JAVA, we have eight data types which are organized in four groups. They are integer
category data types, float category data types, character category data types and Boolean
category data types.
Whatever the data type we use that should not exceed predefined value.
NOTE: Range of any data type = (A) number of bits occupied by a data type
Where, A = number of bits available in the language which is understand by computer i.e., 2
bits.
For example:
Range of byte = 28
= 1 to 256
= 0 to 255
= 0 to (255/2)
= (127.5 - 0.5 = +127) (127.5 + 0.5 = -128)
Day - 13:
A variable is an identifier whose value will be changed during execution of the program.
6) Instance variable are also known as 6) Static variable are also known as class
object level data members since they level data members since they are
are dependent on objects. dependent on classes.
CONSTANTS in java
Constant is an identifier whose value cannot be changed during execution of the program.
In JAVA to make the identifiers are as constants, we use a keyword called final.
Final is a keyword which is playing an important role in three levels. They are at variable
level, at method level and at class level.
For example:
Final int a=10;
a=a+20; //invalid
a=30; //invalid
ii. When the final variable is initialized, no more modifications or assignments are possible.
For example:
Final int a;
a=a+1; //invalid
a=30+2; //invalid
a=400; //valid for 1st time
a=500; //invalid
Whenever a final variable is declared first time assignment is possible and no more
modification and further assignments are not possible. Hence, final variables cannot be modified.
Day - 14:
PROGRAMMIG BASICS
System.out.println ();
This statement is used for displaying the data or messages on to the consol (monitor).
Here, println is the predefined instance method of print stream class.
To call this method we require an object called print stream class.
The object of print stream class is called out is created as a static data member in system
class (system is a predefined class).
Hence to call the println method we must use the following statement:
System.out.println (WELCOME TO JAVA);
Print stream class is a predefined class which contains nine overloaded instance
println methods and nine overloaded instance print methods and whose prototypes are as
follows: Public void println (byte);
Public void println (short);
Public void println (int);
Public void println (long);
Public void println (float);
Public void println (double);
Public void println (char);
Public void println (Boolean);
Public void println (string);
Day - 15:
For example 1:
Int a=40000;
System.out.println (a); //40000
System.out.println (value of a= + a); //value of a=40000
System.out.println (a + is the value of a); //40000 is the value of a
For example 2:
Int a=10, b=20, c;
C = a + b;
System.out.println (c); //30
System.out.println (sum= + c); //sum=30
System.out.println (c + is the sum); // 30 is the sum
System.out.println (sum of + a + and + b + = + c); //sum of 10 and 20 is 30
For example 3:
System.out.println (WELCOME TO JAVA);
Package details:
class <clsname>
{
Data members declaration;
NOTE:
While giving the file name to a JAVA program we must give the file name as name of the
class with an extension .java in which ever the class main method presents.
Whenever we give println it will prints in the new line whereas print prints in the same line.
Steps for COMPILING and RUNNING the java program
Write a JAVA program which illustrates the concept of instance methods and static methods?
Answer:
class Second
{
Void disp1 ()
{
System.out.println (disp1-instance);
}
Static void disp2 ()
{
System.out.println (disp2-static);
}
Public static void main (string k [])
{
System.out.println (main-beginning);
Second so = new Second ();
so. disp1 (); Second. disp2 ();
System.out.println (main-end);
}
} //second
NOTE:
1. One static method can call another static method directly provide both the static method
belongs to same class.
2. One instance method can call another instance method directly provide both the static
instance method belongs to same class.
Day - 16:
HUNGARIAN NOTATION:
Hungarian Notation is the naming convention followed by SUN (Stanford University
Network) micro system to develop their predefined classes, interfaces, methods and data
members.
All the data members in the predefined classes and interfaces are belongs to public static
final XXX data members. XXX represents data type, variable name and variable value. Every final
data member must belong to static data member but reverse may or may not be applicable.
Write a JAVA program to generate the multiplication table for the given number?
Answer:
class Mul //Business Logic Class (BLC)
{
int n;
void set (int x)
{
n=x;
}
void table ()
{
for (int i=1; i<=10; i++)
{
int res=n*i;
System.out.println (n + * + i + = + result);
}
}
};
class MulDemo //Execution Logic Class (ELC)
{
Public static class main (string k [])
{
Mul mo = new Mul ();
mo.set (4);
mo.table ();
}
};
NOTE:
The data members of a class can be used in all the functions of the class.
The variable which we use as a part of function heading is known as formal parameters and
they can be used within the function only.
The variables which we use as a part of function definition/body then those variables known
as local variables and they can be used within its scope i.e., function definition.
The variables which we use within the function call then those variables are known as actual
parameters.
For example:
int n=4;
mo.set (n);
Where n is the actual parameter.
Day - 17:
The following table gives the details about those classes and methods used for converting
storing data to fundamental data:
Length is an implicit attribute created by JVM to determine number of elements or size of the
array. For example:
int a [] = {10, 20, 30, 40};
System.out.println (a. length); //4
String s1 [] = {10, 20, 30};
System.out.println (s1.length); //3
class Data
{
public static void main (String s [])
{
int noa=s.length;
System.out.println ("NUMBER OF VALUES ="+noa);
System.out.println (s [0] +s [1]);
int x=Integer.parseInt (s [0]); //8
int y=Integer.parseInt (s [1]); //9
int z=x+y;
System.out.println ("SUM ="+z);
}
};
8 and 9 lines used for converting string into int data type.
Write a JAVA program for printing the data which we pass from command prompt?
Answer:
class Print
{
public static void main (String k [])
{
System.out.println ("NUMBER OF VALUES ="+k.length);
for (int i=0; i<k.length; i++)
{
System.out.println (k[i] +" ");
}
}
};
Write a JAVA program which computes sum of two numbers by accepting the data from command
prompt (DOS)?
Answer:
class Sum
{
int a, b, c; //a,b,c are data members
void assign (int x, int y) //x,y are formal parameters
{
a=x;
b=y;
}
void add () //add () is business logic method
{
c=a+b;
}
void disp () //disp () is business logic method
{
System.out.println ("SUM OF "+a+" AND "+b+" = "+c);
}
};
class SumDemo
{
public static void main (String k [])
{
int x=Integer.parseInt (k [0]);
int y=Integer.parseInt (k [1]);
Sum so=new Sum ();
so. assign(x, y);
so. add ();
so.disp ();
}
};
NOTE: The data which we pass through command prompt is called command line arguments.
Write a JAVA program to check weather the given number is prime or not?

class Prime
{
int n;
void set (int x)
{
n=x;
}
String decide ()
{
int i;
for (i=2; i<n; i++)
{
if (n%i==0)
{
break;
}
}
if (i==n)
{
return "PRIME";
}
else
{
return "NOT"+"PRIME";
}
}
};
class PrimeDemo
{
public static void main (String k [])
{
int n=Integer.parseInt (k [0]);
Prime po=new Prime ();
po.set (n);
String so=po.decide ();
System.out.println (so);
}
};

{
n=x;
}
void convert ()
{
if (n<=0)
{
System.out.print ("NO ROMAN FOR THE GIVEN NUMBER");
}

{
while (n>=1000)
{
System.out.print ("M");
n=n-1000;
}
if (n>=900)

Roman r=new Roman ();
r.set (n);
r.convert ();
}
};
CONSTRUCTORS in java
A constructor is a special member method which will be called by the JVM implicitly
(automatically) for placing user/programmer defined values instead of placing default values.
Constructors are meant for initializing the object.
ADVANTAGES of constructors:
1. A constructor eliminates placing the default values.
2. A constructor eliminates calling the normal method implicitly.
RULES/PROPERTIES/CHARACTERISTICS of a constructor:
1. Constructor name must be similar to name of the class.
2. Constructor should not return any value even void also (if we write the return type for the
constructor then that constructor will be treated as ordinary method).
3. Constructors should not be static since constructors will be called each and every time
whenever an object is creating.
4. Constructor should not be private provided an object of one class is created in another class
(constructor can be private provided an object of one class created in the same class).
5. Constructors will not be inherited at all.
6. Constructors are called automatically whenever an object is creating.
TYPES of constructors:
Based on creating objects in JAVA we have two types of constructors. They are
default/parameter less/no argument constructor and parameterized constructor.
A default constructor is one which will not take any parameters.
Syntax:
class <clsname>
{
clsname () //default constructor
{
Block of statements;
;
;
}
;
;
};
For example:
class Test
{
int a, b;
Test ()
{
System.out.println ("I AM FROM DEFAULT CONSTRUCTOR...");
a=10;
b=20;
RULE-1:
Whenever we create an object only with default constructor, defining the default
constructor is optional. If we are not defining default constructor of a class, then JVM will call
automatically system defined default constructor (SDDC). If we define, JVM will call
user/programmer defined default constructor (UDDC).
Day - 19:
For example:
class Test
{
int a, b;

RULE-2:
Whenever we create an object using parameterized constructor, it is mandatory for the
JAVA programmer to define parameterized constructor otherwise we will get compile time error.
Overloaded constructor is one in which constructor name is similar but its signature is
different. Signature represents number of parameters, type of parameters and order of
parameters. Here, at least one thing must be differentiated.
For example:
Test t1=new Test (10, 20);
Test t2=new Test (10, 20, 30);
Test t3=new Test (10.5, 20.5);
Test t4=new Test (10, 20.5);
Test t5=new Test (10.5, 20);
RULE-3:
Whenever we define/create the objects with respect to both parameterized constructor and
default constructor, it is mandatory for the JAVA programmer to define both the constructors.
NOTE:
When we define a class, that class can contain two categories of constructors they are single
default constructor and n number of parameterized constructors (overloaded constructors).
this : this is an internal or implicit object created by JAVA for two purposes. They are
i. this object is internally pointing to current class object.
i. Whenever the formal parameters and data members of the class are similar, to differentiate
the data members of the class from formal parameters, the data members of class must be
proceeded by this.
Day - 20:
this (): this () is used for calling current class default constructor from current class parameterized
constructors.
this (): this () is used for calling current class parameterized constructor from other category
constructors of the same class.
For example:
class Test
{
int a, b;
Test ()
{
2- this (10); //calling current class single parameterized constructor
System.out.println ("I AM FROM DEFAULT CONSTRUCTOR...");
a=1;
b=2;
System.out.println ("VALUE OF a = "+a);
System.out.println ("VALUE OF b = "+b);
}
Test (int x) ---2
{
3- this (100, 200); //calling current class double parameterized constructor
System.out.println ("I AM FROM SINGLE PARAMETERIZED CONSTRUCTOR...");
a=b=x;
System.out.println ("VALUE OF a = "+a);
System.out.println ("VALUE OF b = "+b);
}
Test (int a, int b) ---3
{
System.out.println ("I AM FROM DEFAULT CONSTRUCTOR...");
this.a=a;
this.b=b;
System.out.println ("VALUE OF a = "+this.a);
System.out.println ("VALUE OF b = "+this.b);
System.out.println ("VALUE OF a = "+a);
System.out.println ("VALUE OF b = "+b);
}
};
class TestDemo3
{
public static void main (String k [])
{
1- Test t1=new Test ();
}
};
NOTE:
Whenever we refer the data members which are similar to formal parameters, the JVM
gives first preference to formal parameters whereas whenever we write a keyword this before the
variable name of a class then the JVM refers to data members of the class.
this methods are used for calling current class constructors.
NOTE:
If any method called by an object then that object is known as source object.
If we pass an object as a parameter to the method then that object is known as target
object.
For example:
SOURCE OBJECT. METHOD NAME (TARGET OBJECT);
t1. display (t2); // written in main
In the definition of display method t1 data members are referred by this. Data member names
(this. a & this. b) whereas t2 object data members are referred by formal object name. Data member
names (T. a & T. b).
Day - 21:

int n3=Integer.parseInt (k[2]);
int n4=Integer.parseInt (k[3]);
Test t1=new Test (n1,n2);
Test t2=new Test (n3,n4);
Test t3=new Test ();
// t3=t1+t2; invalid statement
t3=t1.sum (t2);
System.out.println ("t1 VALUES ARE AS FOLLOWS...");
t1.display ();
System.out.println ("t2 VALUES ARE AS FOLLOWS...");
t2.display ();
System.out.println ("t3 VALUES ARE AS FOLLOWS...");
t3.display ();
}
};
Based on reusing the data members from one class to another class in JAVA we have three
types of relationships. They are is-a relationship, has-a relationship and uses-a relationship.
Is-a relationship is one in which data members of one class is obtained into another class
through the concept of inheritance.
Has-a relationship is one in which an object of one class is created as a data member in
another class.
Uses-a relationship is one in which a method of one class is using an object of another class.
Inheritance is the technique which allows us to inherit the data members and methods from
base class to derived class.
Base class is one which always gives its features to derived classes.
Derived class is one which always takes features from base class.
A Derived class is one which contains some of features of its own plus some of the data
members from base class.
Syntax for INHERITING the features from base class to derived class:
class <clsname-2> extends <clsname-1>
{
Variable declaration;
Method definition;
};
Here, clsname-1 and clsname-2 represents derived class and base class respectively.
Extends is a keyword which is used for inheriting the data members and methods from base class to
the derived class and it also improves functionality of derived class.
NOTE:
Final classes cannot be inherited.
If the base class contains private data members then that type of data members will not be
inherited into derived class.
Day - 22:
One class can extend only one class at a time. Since, JAVA does not support multiple
inheritance.
Whenever we inherit the base class members into derived class, when we creates an object of
derived class, JVM always creates the memory space for base class members first and later memory
space will be created for derived class members.
For example:
class c1;
{
int a;
void f1()
{
;
}
};
class c2 extends c1
{
int b;
void f2()
{
;
}
};
NOTE:
Whatever the data members are coming from base class to the derived class, the base class
members are logically declared in derived class, the base class methods are logically defined
in derived class.
Private data members and private methods of the base class will not be inherited at all.
For every class in JAVA we have a super class called object class. The purpose of object class
is that it provides garbage collector for collecting unreferenced memory locations from the derived
classes.
Super keyword:
Super keyword is used for differentiating the base class features with derived class features.
Super keyword is placing an important role in three places. They are at variable level, at method
level and at constructor level.
Super at variable level
Whenever we inherit the base class members into derived class, there is a possibility that
base class members are similar to derived class members.
In order to distinguish the base class members with derived class members in the derived
class, the base class members will be preceded by a keyword super.
Syntax for super at VARIABLE LEVEL:
super. base class member name
For example:
class Bc
{
int a;
};
class Dc extends Bc
{
int a;
void set (int x, int y)
{
super.a=x;
a=y; //by default 'a' is preceded with 'this.' since 'this.' represents current class
}
void sum ()
{
System.out.println ("SUM = "+(super.a+a));
}
};
class InDemo1
{
public static void main (String k [])
{
int n1=Integer.parseInt (k[0]);
int n2=Integer.parseInt (k[1]);
Dc do1=new Dc ();
do1.set (n1, n2);
do1.sum ();
}
};
Syntax for super at method level: super. base class method name
For example:
class Bc
{
void display ()
{
System.out.println ("BASE CLASS - DISPLAY...");
}
};
class Dc extends Bc
{
void display ()
{
Day - 23:
Super () is used for calling super class default constructor from default constructor or from
parameterized constructor of derived class. It is optional.
Super () is used for calling super class parameterized constructor either from default
constructor or from parameterized constructor of derived class. It is always mandatory.
RULES:
Whenever we use either super () or super () in derived class constructors they must be
used as first statement.
By Mr. K.V.R Page 41
1. Whenever we want to call default constructor of base class from default constructor of
derived class using super () in default constructor of derived class is optional.
For example:
class Bc
{
Bc ()
{
System.out.println ("I AM FROM BASE CLASS...");
}
};
class Ibc extends Bc
{
Ibc ()
{
System.out.println ("I AM FROM INTERMEDIATE BASE CLASS...");
}
};
class Dc extends Ibc
{
Dc ()
{
super (); //optional
System.out.println ("I AM FROM DERIVED CLASS...");
}
};
class InDemo3
{
public static void main (String k [])
{
Dc o1=new Dc ();
}
};
2. Whenever we want to call the super class parameterized class from parameterized class of
the derived class using super () in parameterized class of derived class is mandatory.
For example:
class C1
{
int a;
C1 (int a)
{
System.out.println ("PARAMETERIZED CONSTRUCTOR - C1");
this.a=a;
System.out.println ("VALUE OF a = "+a);
}
};
class C2 extends C1
{
int b;
C2 (int a, int b)
{
super (a);
System.out.println ("PARAMETERIZED CONSTRUCTOR C2");
this.b=b;
System.out.println ("VALUE OF b = "+b);
}
};
class InDemo4
{
public static void main (String k [])
{
C2 o2=new C2 (10, 20);
}
};
3. Whenever we want to call default constructor of base class from parameterized class of
derived class using super () in parameterized class of derived class is optional.
For example:
class C1
{
int a;
C1 ()
{
System.out.println ("PARAMETERIZED CONSTRUCTOR - C1");
this.a=a;
System.out.println ("VALUE OF a = "+a);
}
};
class C2 extends C1
{
int b;
C2 (int b)
{
super (); //optional
System.out.println ("PARAMETERIZED CONSTRUCTOR - C2");
this.b=b;
System.out.println ("VALUE OF b = "+b);
}
};
class InDemo5
{
public static void main (String k [])
{
C2 o2=new C2 (20);
}
};
4. Whenever we want to call parameterized class of base class from default constructor of
derived class using super () in default constructor of derived class is mandatory.
For example:
class C1
{
int a;
C1 (int a)
{
System.out.println ("PARAMETERIZED CONSTRUCTOR - C1");
this.a=a;
System.out.println ("VALUE OF a = "+a);
}
};
class C2 extends C1
{
int b;
C2 ()
{
super (10);
System.out.println ("DEFAULT CONSTRUCTOR - C2");
this.b=20;
System.out.println ("VALUE OF b = "+b);
}
};
class InDemo6
{
public static void main (String k [])
{
C2 o2=new C2 ();
}
};
Day - 24:
ABSTRACT CLASSES:
In JAVA we have two types of classes. They are concrete classes and abstract classes.
A concrete class is one which contains fully defined methods. Defined methods are also
known as implemented or concrete methods. With respect to concrete class, we can create
an object of that class directly.
For example:
class C1
{
int a,b;
void f1 ()
{
;
;
}
void f2 ()
{
;
;
}
};
An abstract class is one which contains some defined methods and some undefined
methods. Undefined methods are also known as unimplemented or abstract methods.
Abstract method is one which does not contain any definition. To make the method as
abstract we have to use a keyword called abstract before the function declaration.
For example:
Abstract void sum ();
The abstract methods make us to understand what a method can do but it does not give
how the method can be implemented. Every abstract method belongs to a class under class is known
as abstract class, to make the class as abstract we use a keyword called abstract before the class
specification.
For example:
abstract class Op
{
abstract void sum ();
};
Day - 25:
With respect to abstract class we cannot create an object direct but we can create
indirectly. An object abstract class is equal to an object of that class which extends that abstract
class.
For example:
class CC extends AC
{
;
;
};
AC Ao=new AC (); //invalid
AC Ao=new CC ();
or
AC Ao;
Ao=new CC ();
Write a JAVA program for computing sum of two integers and floats using abstract classes?
Answer:
abstract class Op
{
abstract void sum ();
};
class isum extends Op
{
void sum ()
{
int a,b,c;
a=10;
b=20;
c=a+b;
System.out.println ("INT VALUE = "+c);
}
};
class fsum extends Op
{
void sum ()
{
float f1,f2,f3;
f1=10.26f;
f2=20.32f;
f3=f1+f2;
System.out.println ("FLOAT VALUE = "+f3);
}
};
class AbDemo
{
public static void main (String k [])
{
// Op o1=new Op (); invalid
Op o2;
o2=new isum ();
o2.sum ();
o2=new fsum ();
o2.sum ();
}
};
Abstract classes should not be final, since, they are always reusable. Abstract classes are
basically used to implement polymorphism; we use the concept of dynamic binding. Hence,
abstract classes, polymorphism and dynamic binding will improve the performance of JAVA J2EE
applications by reducing amount of memory space.
Whenever we inherit n number of abstract methods from abstract base class to derived
class, if the derived class defines all n number of abstract methods then the derived class is
concrete class. If the derived class is not defining at least one abstract method out of n abstract
methods then the derived class is known as abstract derived class and to make that class abstract,
we use a keyword called abstract.
An abstract base class is one which contains physical representation of abstract methods.
An abstract derived class is one which contains logical declaration of abstract methods which are
inherited from abstract base class.
Day - 26:
Implement the above diagram by using abstract classs polymorphism and dynamic binding.
Answer:
abstract class C1
{
abstract void f1 ();
abstract void f2 ();
};
abstract class C2 extends C1
{
void f1 ()
{
System.out.println ("f1-C2-original");
}
};
class C3 extends C2
{
void f1 ()
{
super.f1 ();
System.out.println ("f1-C3-OVERRIDDEN");
}
void f2 ()
{
System.out.println ("f2-C3");
}
void f3 ()
{
System.out.println ("f3-C3-SPECIALLY DEFINED");
}
};
class AbDemo1
{
public static void main (String k [])
{
C3 o3=new C3 ();
o3.f1 ();
o3.f2 ();
o3.f3 ();
// C2 o2=new C2 (); invalid
C2 o2=new C3 ();
o2.f1 ();
o2.f2 ();
// o2.f3 (); invalid
C1 o1=new C3 (); // or o2
o1.f1 ();
o1.f2 ();
// o1.f3 ();
}
};
Output:
With respect to Concrete Class:
C3 o3=new C3 ();
o3.f1 (); // f1 - overridden - C3
o3.f2 (); // f2 - C3
o3.f3 (); // f3 - defined in - C3
An object of either concrete base class or abstract base class contains the details about
those methods which are available in that class only but this object (concrete base class or abstract
base class) does not contains details of those methods which are specially defined in derived
classs.
Application:
Write a JAVA program to display the fonts of the system?
Answer:
import java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment;
class Fonts
{
public static void main (String k [])
{
GraphicsEnvironment
ge=GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment ();
String s []=ge.getAvailableFontFamilyNames ();
System.out.println ("NUMBER OF FONTS = "+s.length);
for (int i=0; i<s.length; i++)
{
System.out.println (s [i]);
}
}
};
A factory method is one whose return type is similar to name of the class where it presents.
For example:
getLocalGraphicsEnvironment ();
Factory methods are used for creating an object without using new operator. Every
predefined abstract class contains at least one factory method for creating an object of abstract
class.
Whenever we define a concrete class, that concrete class also can be made it as abstract
and it is always further reusable or extendable by further classes.
When we define only concrete class we may extend or we may not extend by derived
classes.
Interfaces:
1. Interfaces are basically used to develop user defined data types.
2. With respect to interfaces we can achieve the concept of multiple inheritances.
3. With interfaces we can achieve the concept of polymorphism, dynamic binding and hence we
can improve the performance of a JAVA program in turns of memory space and execution time.
Interface is a keyword which is used for developing user defined data types.
Interface name represent a JAVA valid variable name and it is treated as name of the interface.
With respect to interface we cannot create an object directly but we can create indirectly.
Variable declaration represents the type of data members which we use a part of
interface. Whatever the variables we use in the interface are meant for general purpose
(the variables like PI, e, etc.).
Whatever the variables we write in the interface, they are by default belongs to:
public static final xxx data members
xxx represents data type, variable name and variable value.
For example:
Interface i1
{
Int a; //invalid since, initializing is mandatory
Int b=20;
Void f1 ();
Void f2 ();
}
Day - 28:
In the above syntax clsname represents name of the class which is inheriting the features
from n number of interfaces. Implements is a keyword which is used to inherit the features of
interface(s) to a derived class.
NOTE:
When we inherit n number of abstract methods from n number of interfaces to the
derived class, if the derived class provides definition for all n number of abstract methods then
the derived class is known as concrete class. If the derived class is not providing definition for at
least one abstract class and it must be made as abstract by using a keyword abstract.
For example:
interface I1
{
int a=10;
void f1 ();
};
interface I2 extends I1
{
int b=20;
void f2 ();
};
If one interface is taking the features of another interface then that inheritance is known as
interface inheritance
Syntax-3:
[abstract] class <derived class name> extends <base class name>
implements <intf 1>,<intf 2>.........<intf n>
{
variable declaration;
method definition or declaration;
};
Whenever we use both extends and implements keywords as a part of JAVA program we
must always write extends keyword first and latter we must use implements keyword.
Important points:
i. An object of interface cannot be created directly since it contains n number of abstract
methods. An object of interface can be created indirectly. An object of interface = an object of
that class which implements that interface.
ii. An object of base interface contains the details about those methods which are declared in that
interface only but it does not contain details about those methods which are specially available
in either in derived classes or in derived interfaces.
iii. Interfaces should not be final.
iv. An interface does not contain Constructors.
Day - 29:
PACKAGE
PREDEFINED PACKAGES
Predefined packages are those which are developed by SUN micro systems and supplied as a
part of JDK (Java Development Kit) to simplify the task of java programmer.
NOTE:
Core packages of java starts with java. (For example: java.lang.*) and Advanced packages of
java starts with javax. (For example: java.sql.*)
Day - 29:
java.io.* This package is used for developing file handling applications, such as, opening
the file in read or write mode, reading or writing the data, etc.
java.awt.* This package is used for developing GUI (Graphic Unit Interface) components
(abstract such as buttons, check boxes, scroll boxes, etc.
windowing toolkit)
java.awt.event.* Event is the sub package of awt package. This package is used for providing
the functionality to GUI components, such as, when button is clicked or when
check box is checked, when scroll box is adjusted either vertically or
horizontally.
java.applet.* This package is used for developing browser oriented applications. In
other words this package is used for developing distributed programs.
An applet is a java program which runs in the context of www or browser.
java.net.* This package is used for developing client server applications.
java.util.* This package is used for developing quality or reliable applications in java or
J2EE. This package contains various classes and interfaces which improves the
performance of J2ME applications. This package is also known as collection
framework (collection framework is the standardized mechanism of grouping
of similar or different type of objects into single object. This single object is
known as collection object).
java.text.* This package is used for formatting date and time on day to day business
operations.
java.lang.reflect.* Reflect is the sub package of lang package. This package is basically used to
study runtime information about the class or interface. Runtime information
represents data members of the class or interface, Constructors of the class,
types of methods of the class or interface.
java.sql.* This package is used for retrieving the data from data base and performing
various operations on data base.
A user defined package is one which is developed by java programmers to simplify the task
of the java programmers to keep set of classes, interfaces and sub packages which are commonly
used. Any class or interface is commonly used by many java programmers that class or interface
must be placed in packages.
Syntax:
package pack1[.pack2[.pack3[.packn]..]];
Here, package is a keyword which is used for creating user defined packages, pack1 represents
upper package and pack2 to packn represents sub packages.
For example:
package p1; statement-1
package p1.p2;
statement-2
The statements 1 and 2 are called package statements.
RU L E :
Whenever we create user defined package statement as a part of java program, we must use
package statement as a first executable statement.
Day - 30:
NOTE:
Whenever we develop any JAVA program it contains n number of classes and interfaces.
Each and every class and interface which are developed by the programmer must belong to a
package (according to industry standards). If the programmer is not keeping the set of classes and
interfaces in a package, JVM will assume its own package called NONAME package.
NONAME package will exist only for a limited span of time until the program is completing.
For example:
// Test.java
package tp;
public class Test
{
public Test ()
{
System.out.println ("TEST - DEFAULT CONSTRUCTOR");
}
public void show ()
{
System.out.println ("TEST - SHOW");
}
}
//ITest.java
package tp;
public interface ITest
{
void disp ();
}
For example:
javac d . Test.java
Day -31:
For example:
Import p1.*; ---1
Import p1.p2.*; ---2
Import p1.p2.p3.*; ---3
When statement 1 is executing we can import or we can access all the classes
and interfaces of package p1 only but not its sub packages p2 and p3 classes and interfaces.
When statement 2 is executing we can import as the classes and interfaces of package
p2 only but not p1 and p3 classes and interfaces.
When statement 3 is executing we can import as the classes and interfaces of package
p3 only but not p1 and p2 classes and interfaces.
Syntax-2:
Import pack1 [.pack2 [.[.packn]]].class name/interface name;
For example:
Import p1.c1; ---4
Import p1.p2.c3; ---5
When statement 4 is executing can import c1 class of package p1 only but not other classes
and interfaces of p1 package, p2 package and p3 package.
When we compile the above program we get the following error package tp does not
exist. To avoid the above error we must set the classpath as., SET CLASSPATH =
%CLASSPATH%;.;
Day - 32:
When two classes or an interface belongs to the same package and if they want to refer
those classes or interfaces need not to be referred by its package name.
For example:
// I1.java
// javac -d . I1.java
package ip;
public interface I1
{
public void f1 ();
public void f2 ();
};
// C01.java
// javac -d . C01.java
package cp;
public abstract class C01 implements ip.I1
{
public void f1 ()
{
System.out.println ("F1 - C01");
}
};
// C02.java
// javac -d . C02.java
package cp;
public class C02 extends C01
{
public void f2 ()
{
System.out.println ("F2 - C02");
}
public void f1 ()
{
super. f1 ();
System.out.println ("F1 - C02 - OVER RIDDEN");
}
};
// PackDemo.java
// javac PackDemo.java
import ip.I1;
class PackDemo
{
public static void main (String [] args)
{
System.out.println
("CP.C02");
cp.C02 o2=new cp.C02
();
o2.f1 ();
o2.f2 ();
System.out.println
("CP.C01");
cp.C01 o1=new cp.C02
();
o1.f1 ();
o1.f2 ();
I1 io;
io=o1; //new cp.C02
();
io.f1 ();
io.f2 ();
}
};
In order to run the above program we must run with respect to package name.
1 javac d . PackDemo1.java
2 java mp.PackDemo1 or java mp/PackDemo1
In order to use the data from one package to another package or within the package, we
have to use the concept of access specifiers. In JAVA we have four types of access specifiers. They
are private, default (not a keyword), protected and public.
Access specifiers makes us to understand how to access the data within the package (class to
class, interface to interface and interfaces to class) and across the package (class to class, interface
to interface and interfaces to class). In other words access specifiers represent the visibility of
data or accessibility of data.
Syntax for declaring a variable along with access specifiers:
[Access specifiers] [Static] [Final] data type v1 [=val1], v2 [=val2] vn [=valn];
For example:
Public static final int
a=10; Protected int d;
Int x; [If we are not using any access specifier it is by default treated as default access specifier]
Private int e;
Private Default Protected Public
Other package
derived class
Other package
independent class
Day - 33:
NOTE:
1. Private access specifier is also known as native access specifier.
2. Default access specifier is also known as package access specifier.
3. Protected access specifier is also known as inherited access specifier.
4. Public access specifier is also known as universal access specifier.

EXCEPTIONAL HANDLING
Whenever we develop any project in real time it should work in all circumstances (mean
in any operation either in error or error free). Every technology or every programming language, if
we use for implementing real time applications and if the end user commits a mistake then by
default that language or technology displays system error messages which are nothing but run time
errors.
Exceptional handling is a mechanism of converting system error messages into user friendly
messages.
Errors are of two types. They are compile time errors and run time errors.
Compile time errors are those which are occurring because of poor understanding of the
language.
Run time errors are those which are occurring in a program when the user inputs invalid data.
The run time errors must be always converted by the JAVA programmer into user friendly
messages by using the concept of exceptional handling.
In JAVA run time environment, to perform any kind of operation or task or an action that will
be performed with respect to either class or an interface.
Whenever we pass invalid data as an input to the JAVA program then JAVA run time
environment displays an error message, that error message is treated as a class.
Types of exceptions:
In JAVA we have two types of exceptions they are predefined exceptions and user or
custom defined exceptions.
1. Predefined exceptions are those which are developed by SUN micro system and supplied as a
part of JDK to deal with universal problems. Some of the universal problems are dividing by zero,
invalid format of the number, invalid bounce of the array, etc.
Day -35:
Predefined exceptions are divided into two types. They are asynchronous exceptions and
synchronous exceptions.
Asynchronous exceptions are those which are always deals with hardware problems. In order
to deal with asynchronous exceptions there is a predefined class called java.lang.Error.
java.lang.Error class is the super class for all asynchronous exceptions.
Synchronous exceptions are one which always deals with programmatic errors. In order to
deal with synchronous exceptions we must use a predefined class called java.lang.Exception class.
java.lang.Exception is the super class for all synchronous exceptions. Synchronous exceptions
are divided into two types. They are checked exceptions and unchecked exceptions.
i. A checked exception is one which always deals with compile time errors regarding class not
found and interface not found.
ii. Unchecked exceptions are those which are always deals with programmatic run time errors such
as ArithmeticException, NumberFormatException, ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException, etc.
An exception is an object which occurs at run time which describes the nature of the message.
The nature of the message can be either system error message or user friendly message.
1. Whenever we pass irrelevant input to a JAVA program, JVM cannot process the irrelevant input.
2. Since JVM is unable to process by user input, hence it can contact to JRE for getting an
appropriate exception class.
3. JRE contacts to java.lang.Throwable for finding what type of exception it is.
4. java.lang.Throwable decides what type of exception it is and pass the message to JRE.
5. JRE pass the type of exception to JAVA API.
6. [6.1 & 6.2] From the JAVA API either java.lang.Error class or java.lang.Exception class will found
an appropriate sub class exception.
7. Either java.lang.Error class or java.lang.Exception class gives an appropriate exception class to
JRE.
8. JRE will give an appropriate exception class to JVM.
9. JVM will create an object of appropriate exception class which is obtained from JRE and
it generates system error message.
10. In order to make the program very strong (robust), JAVA programmer must convert the system
error messages into user friendly messages by using the concept of exceptional handling.
User friendly messages are understand by normal user effectively hence our program is robust.
finally
{
Block of statements which releases the resources;
}
Try block:
1. This is the block in which we write the block of statements which are to be monitored by JVM at
run time i.e., try block must contain those statements which causes problems at run time.
2. If any exception is taking place the control will be jumped automatically to appropriate catch
block.
3. If any exception is taking place in try block execution will be terminated and the rest of
the statements in try block will not be executed at all and the control will go to catch block.
4. For every try block we must have at least one catch block. It is highly recommended to write n
number of catchs for n number of problematic statements.
Catch block:
1. This is used for providing user friendly messages by catching system error messages.
2. In the catch we must declare an object of the appropriate execution class and it will be
internally referenced JVM whenever the appropriate situation taking place.
3. If we write n number of catchs as a part of JAVA program then only one catch will be executing
at any point.
4. After executing appropriate catch block even if we use return statement in the catch block the
control never goes to try block.
Finally block:
1. This is the block which is executing compulsory whether the exception is taking place or not.
2. This block contains same statements which releases the resources which are obtained in
try block (resources are opening files, opening databases, etc.).
3. Writing the finally block is optional.
For example:
class Ex1
{
public static void main (String [] args)
{
try
{
String s1=args[0];
String s2=args[1];
int n1=Integer.parseInt
(s1); int
n2=Integer.parseInt (s2);
int n3=n1/n2;
} System.out.println ("DIVISION VALUE =
"+n3);
catch (ArithmeticException Ae)
{
System.out.println ("DONT ENTER ZERO FOR DENOMINATOR...");
}
catch (NumberFormatException Nfe)
{
System.out.println ("PASS ONLY INTEGER VALUES...");
}
catch (ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException Aioobe)
{
System.out.println ("PASS DATA FROM COMMAND PROMPT...");
}
finally
{
System.out.println ("I AM FROM FINALLY...");
}
}
};
Day - 37:
Throws block: This is the keyword which gives an indication to the calling function to keep the
called function under try and catch blocks.
Syntax:
<Return type> method name (number of parameters if any) throws type of
exception1,type of exception2,type of exception;
Write a JAVA program which illustrates the concept of throws keyword?
Answer:
(CALLED FUNCTION)
package ep;
public class Ex2
{
public void div (String s1, String s2) throws ArithmeticException, NumberFormatException
{
int n1=Integer.parseInt
(s1); int
n2=Integer.parseInt (s2);
int n3=n1/n2;
System.out.println ("DIVISOIN =
"+n3);
}
};
(CALLING FUNCTION)
import ep.Ex2;
class Ex3
{
public static void main (String [] args)
{
try
{
String s1=args [0];
String s2=args [1];
Ex2 eo=new Ex2 ();
eo.div (s1,s2);
}
catch (ArithmeticException Ae)
{
System.out.println ("DONT ENTER ZERO FOR DENOMINATOR");
}
catch (NumberFormatException Nfe)
{
System.out.println ("PASS INTEGER VALUES ONLY");
}
catch (ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException Aioobe)
{
System.out.println ("PASS VALUES FROM COMMAND PROMPT");
}
}
};
Day - 38:
i. Using an object of java.lang.Exception: An object of Exception class prints the name of the
exception and nature of the message.
For example:
try
{
int x=Integer.parseInt ("10x");
}
catch (Exception e)
{
System.out.println (e); // java.lang.NumberFormatException : for input string 10x
} name of the exception nature of the message
ii. Using printStackTrace method: This is the method which is defined in java.lang.Throwable
class and it is inherited into java.lang.Error class and java.lang.Exception class. This method
will display name of the exception, nature of the message and line number where the exception
has taken place.
For example:
try
{
......;
int x=10/0;
......;
}
catch (Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace (); // java.lang.ArithmeticException : / by zero : at line no: 4
} name of the exception nature of the message line number
iii. Using getMessage method: This is also a method which is defined in java.lang.Throwable class
and it is inherited into both Error and Exception classes. This method will display only nature
of the message.
For example:
try
{
......;
int x=10/0;
......;
}
catch (Exception e)
{
System.out.println (e.getMessage ()); // / by
zero
} nature of the message
User defined exceptions are those which are developed by JAVA programmer as a part of
application development for dealing with specific problems such as negative salaries, negative ages,
etc.
For example:
package na; // step1
public class Nage extends Exception // step2 & step3
{
public Nage (String s) // step4
{
super (s);// step5
}
};
Day - 39:
Write a JAVA program which illustrates the concept of user defined exceptions?
Answer:
package na;
public class Nage extends Exception
{
public Nage (String s)
{
super (s);
}
};
package ap;
import na.Nage;
public class Age
{
public void decide (String s) throws NumberFormatException, Nage
{
int ag= Integer.parseInt (s);
if (ag<=0)
{
Nage na=new Nage ("U HAV ENTERED INVALID AGE..!");
throw (na);
}
else
{
System.out.println ("OK, U HAV ENTERED VALID AGE..!");
}
}
};
import na.Nage;
import ap.Age;
class CDemo
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
try
{
String s1=args [0];
ap.Age Ao=new ap.Age ();
Ao.decide (s1);
}
catch (Nage na)
{
System.out.println (na);
}
catch (NumberFormatException nfe)
{
System.out.println ("PASS ONLY INTEGER VALUES..!");
}
catch (ArithmeticException ae)
{
System.out.println ("PASS INTEGER VALUES ONLY..!");
}
catch (ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException aioobe)
{
System.out.println ("PASS VALUES THROUGH COMMAND PROMPT..!");
}
catch (Exception e)
{
System.out.println (e);
}
}
};
NOTE: Main method should not throw any exception since the main method is called by JVM and
JVM cannot provide user friendly message.
APPLETs
In JAVA we write two types of programs or applications. They are standalone applications
and distributed applications.
A standalone application is one which runs in the context of local disk and whose result is not
sharable. Every standalone application runs from command prompt and it contains main method
along with System.out.println statements.
A distributed application is one which runs in the context of browser or World Wide Web and it
can be accessed across the globe. Any technology which runs in the browser will have n
number of life cycle methods and it does not contain main methods and System.out.println
statements.
In JAVA, SUN micro initially has developed a concept called applets which runs in the context of
browser. An applet is a JAVA program which runs in the context of browser or World Wide Web.
In order to deal with applets we must import a package called java.applet.*. This package
contains only one class Applet whose fully qualified name is java.applet.Applet.
Since applets are running in the browser, the class Applet contains the life cycle methods.
Life cycle methods are also called as loop back methods.
Day - 40:
In java.applet.Applet we have four life cycle methods. They are public void init (),
public void start (), public void stop () and public void destroy ().
1. Public void init (): This is the method which is called by the browser only one time after loading
the applet. In this method we write some block of statements which will perform one time
operations, such as, obtaining the resources like opening the files, obtaining the database
connection, initializing the parameters, etc.
2. Public void start (): After calling the init method, the next method which is from second request
to sub-sequent requests the start method only will be called i.e., short method will be called
each and every time. In this method we write the block of statement which provides business
logic.
3. Public void stop (): This id the method which is called by the browser when we minimize the
window. In this method we write the block of statements which will temporarily releases the
resources which are obtained in init method.
4. Public void destroy (): This is the method which will be called by the browser when we close the
window button or when we terminate the applet application. In this method we write same
block of statements which will releases the resources permanently which are obtained in init
method.
Another method which is not a life cycle method is public void paint (). This is the method
which will be called by the browser after completion of start method. This method is used for
displaying the data on to the browser. Paint method is internally calling the method called
drawString whose prototype is given below.
java.awt.Graphics
(Graphics => public void drawString (String, int row position, int column position))
An object of Graphics class will be created automatically after loading the applet into the
browser.
Using HTML program: In order to run the applet through HTML program we must use the following
tag.
Syntax:
<applet code =.class file of the applet height = height value width = width
value>
</applet>
For example:
File name: MyApp.html
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE> My applet example </TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<APPLET code="MyApp" height=100 width=150>
</APPLET>
</BODY>
</HTML>
Using appletviewer:
Appletviewer is a tool supplied by SUN micro system to run the applet programs from the
command prompt (in the case of browser is not supporting).
When we use appletviewer to run the above applet, MyApp.java program must contain the
following tag within the multi line comment.
/*<applet code= MyApp height=300 width=300> </applet>*/
Day - 41:
40);
In the Graphics class we have the following method which will set the font.
java.awt.Graphics
public void setFont (Font fobj)
For example:
g.setFont (f);
Write a JAVA program which illustrates the life cycle methods of applet?
Answer:
import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.*;
/*<applet code="MyApp1" height=300 width=300>
</applet>*/
As a part of GUI applications we use to create two types of components. They are passive
components and active components.
A passive component is one where there is no interaction from the user. For example label.
An active component is one where there is an interaction from the user. For example button,
check box, scroll bar, etc.
The active and passive components in JAVA are available in terms of classes. In order to deal
with any GUI applications we must import a package called java.awt.* (contains various classes and
interfaces for creating GUI components) and java.awt.event.* (contains various classes and
interfaces which will provide functionality to GUI components).
Da y - 4 2 :
Whenever we develop any GUI application we must have readily available window
component and window component must contain frame component. Any GUI component which we
want to create gives the corresponding class and adds all those components to the object of
Container class.
class FDemo
{
Public static void main (String [] args)
{
Myf mo=new myf ();
}
};
The methods in line numbers 1 and 2 defined in java.awt.Window class. The methods in line
numbers 3, 4 and 5 are defined in java.awt.Component class.
Label class:
Label is a class which is used for creating label as a part of windows application. The
component label comes under passive component. Labels always improve the functionality and
readability of active components. Creating a label is nothing but creating an object of label
components.
Constructors:
Label ()
Label (String)
Label (String label name, int alignment modifier)
Instance methods:
public void setText (String);
public String getText ();
public void setAlignment (int);
public int getAlignment ();
or
or
Day - 43:
For example:
Component name Undefined method name
Button public void actionPerformed (java.awt.event.ActionEvent)
Choice public void actionPerformed (java.awt.event.ItemEvent)
TextField public void actionPerformed (java.awt.event.TextEvent)
TextArea public void actionPerformed (java.awt.event.TextEvent)
Each and every interactive component must be registered and unregistered with particular
event and Listener. The general form of registration and un-registration methods is as follows:
public void addxxxListener (xxxListener);
public void removexxxListener (xxxListener);
For example:
Day - 44:
BUTTON:
Button is an active component which is used to perform some operations such as saving the
details into the database, deleting the details from the database, etc.
Creating a button is nothing but creating an object of Button class.
Button API:
Constructors:
Button ();
Button (String);
Instance methods:
public void add ActionListener (ActionListener);
public void remove ActionListener (ActionListener);
Write a java program to illustrate the concept of buttons?
Answer:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
class BDemo extends Frame implements ActionListener
{
Button b1,b2,b3,b4;
Label l;
BDemo ()
{
super ("BUTTON EXAMPLE...");// set
title setSize (200,200);
b1=new Button ("NORTH");
b2=new Button ("SOUTH");
b3=new Button
("EAST/EXIT"); b4=new
Button ("WEST");
l=new Label ();
l.setAlignment (Label.CENTER);
add (b1,"North");
add (b2,"South");
add (b3,"East");
add (b4,"West");
add (l);// add at center of border layout by default
b1.addActionListener
(this);
b2.addActionListener
(this);
b3.addActionListener
(this);
b4.addActionListener
(this); setVisible (true);
}
public void actionPerformed (ActionEvent ae)
{
if (ae.getSource ()==b1)
{
System.out.println ("U HAVE CLICKED "+b1.getLabel ());
// String s1=b1.getLabel ();
// l.setText (s1);
l.setText (b1.getLabel ());
}
if (ae.getSource ()==b2)
{
System.out.println ("U HAVE CLICKED "+b2.getLabel ());
l.setText (b2.getLabel ());
}
if (ae.getSource ()==b3)
{
System.out.println ("U HAVE CLICKED "+b3.getLabel ());
l.setText (b3.getLabel ());
// System.exit (0);
}
if (ae.getSource ()==b4)
{
System.out.println ("U HAVE CLICKED "+b4.getLabel ());
l.setText (b4.getLabel ());
}
}// actionPerformed
};// BDemo
class BDemo1
{
public static void main (String [] args)
{
new BDemo ();
}
};
Output:
U HAVE CLICKED WEST
U HAVE CLICKED SOUTH
U HAVE CLICKED EAST/EXIT
U HAVE CLICKED NORTH
CHOICE:
Choice is the GUI component which allows us to add n number of items. This component
allows selecting a single item at a time.
Creating a choice component is nothing but creating an object of Choice class.
Choice API:
Constructors:
choice ();
Instance methods:
public void add (String); 1 public
void addItem (String); 2 public
void add (int pos, String); 3
public void addItem (int pos, String); 4
public String getSelectedItem ();
5 public int getSelectedIndex ();
6 public void remove (String); 7
public void remove (int); 8
public void removeAll (); 9
public void addItemListener (ItemListener); 10
public void removeItemListener (ItemListener);
11
Methods 1 and 2 are used for adding items to the choice component at end.
Methods 3 and 4 are used for adding the items at the specified position.
Methods 5 and 6 are used for obtaining the items either based on its name or on its index.
Methods 7 and 8 are used for removing the item of the choice component either based on its
name or on its index (position).
Method 9 is used for removing all the items of choice components.
Methods 10 and 11 are used for registering and unregistering the events of choice components.
Day - 45:
CHECKBOX:
Checkbox is basically used for maintaining checklist purpose checkbox is an
interactive component which contains a square symbol and a label.
Creating a checkbox is nothing but creating an object of checkbox class
Checkbox API:
Constructors:
checkbox ();
checkbox (String);
checkbox (String, boolean);
Instance methods:
public void setLabel (String);
public String getLabel ();
public void setState
(boolean); public boolean
getState ();
public void addItemListener (ItemListener);
public void removeItemListener (ItemListener);
} l1.setText ("U
HAVE SELECTED
NONE");
RADIO BUTTONS:
In java.awt we are not having a special class for radio buttons but we can create
radio button from Checkbox class.
In java.awt we have a predefined class called CheckboxGroup through which we can add
all the checkboxes to the object of CheckboxGroup class.
3. Decide which checkboxes are adding to which CheckboxGroup object. In order to add the
checkboxes to the CheckboxGroup object, in Checkbox class we have the following method:
public void setCheckboxGroup (CheckboxGroup);
For example:
cb1.setCheckboxGroup
(cbg1);
cb2.setCheckboxGroup
(cbg2);
cb3.setCheckboxGroup
(cbg3);
cb4.setCheckboxGroup
(cbg4);
4. Register the events of checkbox with ItemListener by using the following method:
public void addItemListener
(ItemListener);
NOTE: Instead of using a setCheckboxGroup method we can also used the following Constructor
which is present in Checkbox class.
Checkbox (String, CheckboxGroup,
boolean); Checkbox (String, boolean,
CheckboxGroup); For example:
Checkbox cb1=new Checkbox (C, cbg1, false);
By Mr. K.V.R Page 82
Checkbox cb2=new Checkbox (Cpp, cbg2, false);
Checkbox cb3=new Checkbox (Java, cbg3, false);
Checkbox cb4=new Checkbox (Oracle9i, cbg4,
false);
TEXTFIELD:
TextField is GUI interactive component which allows entering the data in single line.
Whatever the data, we enter to text field, by default that data will be treated as string.
If we are able to read the data of text field then that text field is known as editable or non-
echo or normal text field.
If we are unable to read the data of the text field then that text field is known as echo text
field and the character which is available is known as echo character.
Creating a text box is nothing but creating an object of TextField class.
TextField API:
Constructors:
TextField ();
TextField (int);// int represents size of the text field
TextField (String);// data in the text field
TextField (String, int);
Instance methods:
public void setSize (int);
public int getSize ();
public void setText (String);
public String getText ();
public void setEchoChar (char);
public char getEchoChar ();
public void setEditable
(boolean); public boolean
getEditable(); public boolean
isEditable ();
public void addTextListener (TextListener);
public void removeTextListener (TextListener);
Adapter class:
It is one which contains null body definition for those methods which are inheriting
from appropriate Listener.
In java.awt.event.* we have Listener interface called WidowListener which contains seven
abstract methods. In the derived class implements WindowListener interface; it is mandatory for
derived class to define all the methods even though the derived class is not required. If the derived
class wants to define the required methods, it has to extend its corresponding adapter class called
java.awt.event.WindowAdapter and this class contains null body definition for WindowListener
interface methods.
Therefore which our Listener interface contains more than one undefined method for that
Listener interfaces we have the appropriate adapter class whose general notation is
XXXAdapter. For example:
Listener Adapter
WindowListener WindowAdapter
ActionListener WindowAdapter
MouseListener MouseAdapter
MouseMotionListener MouseMotionAdapter
TEXTAREA:
TextArea is the GUI interactive component in which we can enter multiple lines of
information such as addresses, remarks, achievements, etc.
Creating a TextArea is nothing but creating an object of TextArea class. Whenever we create
a TextArea component by default Scrollbars will be in invisible mode. Whenever number of rows
are exceeding automatically we get vertical scrollbar whereas when number of columns are
exceeding we get horizontal scrollbar.
TextArea API:
Data members:
public static final int SCROLLBARS_NONE;
public static final int SCROLLBARS_BOTH;
public static final int SCROLLBARS_VERTICAL_ONLY;
public static final int SCROLLBARS_HORIZONTAL_ONLY;
Constructors:
TextArea ();
TextArea (int rows, int cols);
TextArea (int rows, int cols, int scroll visibility modifier);
Instance methods:
public void setRows (int rows);
public void setColums (int
cols); public int getRows ();
public int getCols ();
public void setScrollbarVisibility
(int); public int getScrollbarVisibility
(); public void setText (String);
public String getText ();
public void append (String);
public void replace (int start pos, int end pos, String);
public void addTextListener (TextListener); registered
public void removeTextListener (TextListener);
unregistered
Write a java program which illustrates the concept of TextArea?
Answer:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.applet.Applet.*;
/*<applet code="TextareaApp" height=200 width=200>
</applet>*/
public class TextareaApp extends Applet
{
Label l1, l2;
TextField tf;
TextArea ta;
public void init ()
{
setBackground (Color.yellow);
l1=new Label ("Enter a
text"); l2=new Label ("Copied
text"); tf=new TextField
(20);
ta=new TextArea ();
add (l1);add (l2);add (tf);add (ta);
}
public void start ()
{
tf.addTextListener (new tl ());
}
class tl implements TextListener
{
public void textValueChanged (TextEvent te)
{
ta.setText ("");
String s=tf.getText ();
ta.append (s+"\n");
}
}
};
LIST:
List is the GUI interactive component which allows to select either single or multiple items at
a time.
Creating List component is nothing but creating an object of List class.
List API:
Constructors:
List ();
List (int size);
List (int size, boolean mode);
Instance methods:
public void setSize (int size);
public int getSize (); public
void add (String); public
void addItem (String); public
void add (int, String);
public void addItem (int, String);
public String getSelectedItem ();
public String [] getSelectedItems
(); public int getSelectedIndex ();
public int [] getSelectedIndexes
(); public void remove (int index);
public void remove (String item);
public void removeAll ();
public void addItemListener (ItemListener); single click of List item
public void removeItemListener (ItemListener); single click of List item
public void addActionListener (ActionListener); double click of List item
public void removeActionListener (ActionListener); double click of List
item
Day -47:
NOTE:
When we want to select the items of the list with single click then we must register with
ItemListener to select items of the list with double click then we must register with ActionListener.
Mouse operation:
Mouse is the hardware component which always deals with user interactive with various
active components. On mouse we can perform two types of operations, they are basic operations
and advanced operations.
To deal with basic operations of mouse we must take an interface called MouseListener. This
interface contains the following undefined methods:
public void mousePressed (MouseEvent);
public void mouseClicked (MouseEvent);
public void mouseExited (MouseEvent);
public void mouseReleased
(MouseEvent); public void mouseEntered
(MouseEvent);
In order to perform the basic operations of the mouse we must have the following
registration method which are present in component class.
public void addMouseListener (MouseListener);
public void removeMouseListener (MouseListener);
To perform advanced operations of mouse we must use a predefined interface called
MouseMotionListener and it contains the following methods:
public void mouseDragged (MouseEvent);
public void mouseMoved (MouseEvent);
In order to deal with advanced operations we must have the following registration methods:
public void addMouseMotionListener (MouseMotionListener);
public void removeMouseMotionListener (MouseMotionListener);
Write a java program which illustrates the basic and advanced operations of mouse?
Answer:

SCROLLBAR:
Scrollbar is the GUI component which allows us to see invisible number of rows and invisible
number of columns with vertical and horizontal scrollbars.
Day - 48:
IO STREAMS:
Generally, in JAVA programming we write two types of applications or programs. They are
volatile or non-persistent program and non-volatile or persistent
program.
A volatile program is one whose result is always stored in main memory of the computer i.e.,
RAM. Whatever the data which is stored in the main memory of the computer that data will be
temporary i.e., the data which is available in main memory is volatile.
A non-volatile program is one whose result is stored in secondary storage devices i.e., hard disk,
magnetic tapes, etc. the data which is stored in secondary storage devices is permanent. To
store the data we have two approaches. They are using files and using database.
If we store the data permanently in the form of a file, then the data of that file can be
modified by any unauthorized user. Hence, industry always recommends not storing the data in the
files. Since, files do not provide any security. Hence, industry always recommends storing the data in
the form of database. Since, most of the popular databases provide security in the form of user
names and passwords.
In order to store the data permanently in the form of files we must use or import a package
called java.io.*
Day -49:
InputStream class:
This is an abstract class; hence we cannot create an object of this class directly. This class is
basically used to open the file in read mode. In this class we have the following methods:
1. public int read ();
2. public int length (); // total size of the file
3. public int available (); // available number of bytes only
4. public void close ();
OutputStream class:
This is also an abstract class; hence we cannot create an object of this class directly. This
class is used for opening the file in write mode. In this class we have the following methods:
1. public void write (int);
2. public int length ();
FileInputStream class:
This is the concrete (which we can create an object or it contains all defined methods) sub-
class of all InputStream class. This class is always used to open the file in read mode. Opening the
file in read mode is nothing but creating an object of FileInputStream class.
Constructor:
FileInputStream (String fname) throws FileNotFoundException
For example:
FileInputStream fis=new FileInputStream (abc.txt);
If the file name abc.txt does not exist then an object of FileInputStream fis is null and hence
we get FileNotFoundException. If the file name abc.txt is existing then the file abc.txt will be
opened successfully in read mode and an object fis will point to beginning of the file.
FileOutputStream class:
This is the concrete sub-class of all OutputStream classes. This class is always used for
opening the file in write mode is nothing but creating an object of FileOutputStream class.
Constructors:
1. FileOutputStream (String fname);
2. FileOutputStream (String fname, boolean flag);
If the flag is true the data will be appended to the existing file else if flag is false the data
will be overlapped with the existing file data.
If the file is opened in write mode then the object of FileOutputStream will point to that
file which is opened in write mode. If the file is unable to open in write mode an object
of FileOutputStream contains null.
Day -50:
Write the following JAVA programs: 1) create a file that should contain 1 to 10 numbers. 2) read the
data from the file which is created above.
Answer:
1)
import java.io.*;
class Fos
{
public static void main (String [] args)
{
try
{
String fname=args [0];
FileOutputStream fos=new FileOutputStream (fname, true);// mean append mode
for (int i=1; i<=10; i++)
{
fos.write (i);
}
fos.close ();
}
catch (IOException ioe)
{
System.out.println (ioe);
}
catch (ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException aiobe)
{
System.out.println ("PLEASE PASS THE FILE NAME..!");
}
System.out.println ("DATA WRITTEN..!");
}
};
2)
import java.io.*;
class Fis
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
try
{
String fname=args [0];
FileInputStream fis=new FileInputStream (fname);
int i;
while ((i=fis.read ())!=-1)
{
System.out.println (i);
}
fis.close ();
}
catch (FileNotFoundException fnfe)
{
System.out.println ("FILE DOES NOT EXIST..!");
}
catch (IOException ioe)
{
System.out.println (ioe);
}
catch (ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException aiobe)
{
System.out.println ("PLEASE PASS THE FILE NAME..!");
}
}
};
DataInputStream class:
This is used for two purposes. They are reading the data from input device like keyboard
and reading the data from remote machine like server.
In order to perform the above operations we must create an object of DataInputStream
class.
Constructors:
DataInputStream (InputStream);
For example:
DataInputStream dis=new DataInputStream (System.in);
DataOutputStream class:
This is used for displaying the data onto the console and also used for writing the data to
remote machine.
Constructor:
DataOutputStream (OutputStream);
For example:
DataOutputStream dos=new DataOutputStream (System.out);
Instance methods:
Old methods:
1. public void writeByte (byte);
2. public void writeChar (char);
3. public void writeShort (short);
4. public void writeInt (int);
5. public void writeLong (long);
6. public void writeFloat (float);
7. public void writeDouble (double);
8. public void writeBoolean (boolean);
9. public void writeLine (String);
New methods:
1. public void write (byte);
2. public void write (char);
3. public void write (short);
4. public void write (int);
5. public void write (long);
6. public void write (float);
7. public void write (double);
8. public void write (boolean);
9. public void write (String);
Write a JAVA program to read two numbers from keyboard and display their product (using older
methods)?
Answer:
import java.io.*;
class DataRead
{
public static void main (String [] args)
{
try
{
DataInputStream dis=new DataInputStream
(System.in); System.out.println ("Enter first
number : ");
String s1=dis.readLine ();
System.out.println ("Enter second number :
"); String s2=dis.readLine ();
int n1=Integer.parseInt (s1);
int n2=Integer.parseInt (s2);
int n3=n1*n2;
} System.out.println ("Product = "+n3);
catch (FileNotFoundException fnfe)
{
System.out.println ("FILE DOES NOT EXISTS");
}
catch (IOException ioe)
{
System.out.println (ioe);
}
catch (NumberFormatException nfe)
{
System.out.println ("PASS INTEGER VALUES ONLY");
}
}
};
Day - 51:
Serialization: Serialization is the process of saving the state of the object permanently in the form
of a file.
SERIALIZATION PROCESS:
1. Create an object of serializable sub-class.
For example:
Student so=new Student ();
4. Choose the file name and open it into write mode with the help of FileOutputStream class.
5. Since an object of FileOutputStream class cannot write the entire object at a line to the file. In
order to write the entire object at a time to the file we must create an object of
ObjectOutputStream class and it contains the following Constructor:
ObjectOutputStream (FileOutputStream);
For example:
ObjectOutputStream oos=new ObjectOutputStream (fos);
The object oos is pointing to object fos, hence such type of streams are called chained
or sequenced stream.
6. ObjectOutputStream class contains the following instance method, which will write the entire
object at a time to the file.
For example:
ObjectOutpurStream.writeObject (so);
Day 53:
DESERIALIZATION PROCESS: De-serialization is a process of reducing the data from the file in the
form of object.
2. Choose the file name and open it into read mode with the help of FileInputStream class.
For example:
FileInputStream fis=new FileInputStream (Student);
4. ObjectInputStream class contains the following method which will read the entire object or
record.
public Object readObject ();
For example:
Object obj=ois.readObject ();
6. Apply set of get methods for printing the data of Serializable sub-class object.
For example:
int stno=so.getStno ();
String sname=so.getSname
(); flaot marks=so.getMarks
();
Types of serialization:
In java we have four types of serialization; they are complete serialization,
selective serialization, manual serialization and automatic serialization.
Complete serialization is one in which all the data members of the class participates in
serialization process.
Selective serialization is one in which few data members of the class or selected members of the
class are participating in serialization process.
In order to avoid the variable from the serialization process, make that variable
declaration as transient i.e., transient variables never participate in serialization process.
Manual serialization is one in which the user defined classes always implements
java.io.Serializable interface.
Automatic serialization is one in which object of sub-class of Serializable sub-class participates in
serialization process.
class RegStudent extends Student
{
..
..
};
Buffered Streams:
Buffered streams are basically used to reduce physical number of read and write operation
i.e., buffered streams always increases the performance of ordinary streams.
In byte streams we have two buffered streams, they are BufferedInputStream and
BufferedOutputStream.
BufferedInputStream:
BufferedInputStream class is used for reducing number of physical read operation. When we
create an object of BufferedInputStream, we get a temporary peace of memory space whose default
size is 1024 bytes and it can be increased by multiples of 2.
Constructor:
public BufferedInputStream (FileInputStream);
For example:
FileInputStream fis=new FileInputStream (abc.dat);
BufferedInputStream bis=new BufferedInputStream
(fis);
BufferedOutputStream:
BufferedOutputStream class is used for reducing number of physical write operation when
we create an object of BufferedOutputStream, we get a temporary peace of memory space whose
default size is 1024 bytes and it can be increased by multiple of 2.
Constructor:
public BufferedOutputStream (FileOutputStream);
For example:
FileOutputStream fos=new FileOutputStream (abc.dat);
BufferedOutputStream bos=new BufferedOutputStream
(fos);
Day - 54:
Byte streams will transfer one byte of data and they will be implemented in system level
applications such as flow of data in electronic circuits, development of ftp protocol etc.
Character streams are those in which 2 bytes of data will be transferred and it can be
implemented in higher level applications such as internet applications, development of
protocols etc., like http etc.
MULTI THREADING:
Thread:
1. A flow of control is known as thread.
2. If a program contains multiple flow of controls for achieving concurrent execution then that
program is known as multi threaded program.
3. A program is said to be a multi threaded program if and only if in which there exist n number
of sub-programs there exist a separate flow of control. All such flow of controls are
executing concurrently such flow of controls are known as threads and such type of
applications or programs is called multi threaded programs.
The languages like C, C++ comes under single threaded modeling languages, since there exist
single flow of controls where as the languages like JAVA, DOT NET are treated as multi threaded
modeling languages, since there is a possibility of creating multiple flow of controls.
When we write any JAVA program there exist two threads they are fore ground thread and back
ground thread.
Fore ground threads are those which are executing user defined sub-programs where as back
ground threads are those which are monitoring the status of fore ground thread. There is a
possibility of creating n number of fore ground threads and always there exist single back ground
thread.
Multi threading is the specialized form of multi tasking of operating system.
Day - 55:
In information technology we can develop two types of applications. They are process based
applications and thread based applications.
Process Based Applications Thread Based Applications
1. It is the one in which there exist single 1. It is the one in which there exist multiple
flow of control. flow of controls.

5. These are treated as heavy weight 5. These are treated as light weight
components. components.
6. In this we can achieve only sequential 6. In thread based applications we can

recommending for developing internet execution and they are always
applications. recommended for developing interact
applications.
States of a thread:
When we write any multi threading applications, there exist n numbers of threads. All the
threads will under go different types of states. In JAVA for a thread we have five states. They are
new, ready, running, waiting and halted or dead state.
New state: It is one in which the thread about to enter into main memory.
Ready state: It is one in which the thread is entered into memory space allocated and it is waiting for
CPU for executing.
Running state: A state is said to be a running state if and only if the thread is under the control of
CPU.
Waiting state: It is one in which the thread is waiting because of the following factors:
a) For the repeating CPU burst time of the thread (CPU burst time is an amount of the required by
the thread by the CPU).
b) Make the thread to sleep for sleep for some specified amount of
time. c) Make the thread to suspend.
d) Make the thread to wait for a period of time.
e) Make the thread to wait without specifying waiting time.
Halted state: It is one in which the thread has completed its total execution.
As long as the thread is in new and halted states whose execution status is false where as
when the thread is in ready, running and waiting states that execution states is true.
Creating a thread:
In order to create a thread in JAVA we have two ways. They are by using java.lang.Thread
class and by using java.lang.Runnable interface.
In multi threading we get only one exception known as java.lang.InterruptedException.
Day - 56:
Using java.lang.Thread:
Creating a flow of control in JAVA is nothing but creating an object of java.lang.Thread class.
An object of Thread class can be created in three ways. They are:
i) Directly Thread t=new Thread ();
ii) Using factory method Thread t1=Thread.currentThread ();
iii) Using sub-class of Thread class
class C1 extends Thread
{
;
;
};
C1 o1=new C1 ();
Thread t1=new C1 ();
Here, C1 is the sub-class of Thread class.
Thread API:
public static final int MAX_PRIORITY
(10); public static final int
MIN_PRIORITY (1); public static final int
NORM_PRIORITY (5);
The above data members are used for setting the priority to threads are created. By default,
whenever a thread is created whose default priority NORM_PRIORITY.
Constructors:
i) Thread (): With this Constructor we can create an object of the Thread class whose default
thread name is Thread-0.
For example:
Thread t=new Thread ();
System.out.println (t.getName ());// Thread-0
ii) Thread (String): This Constructor is used for creating a thread and we can give the user specified
thread name.
For example:
Thread t=new Thread (JAVA);
t.setName (JAVA);
t.setPriority (Thread.MAX_PRIORITY);
iii) Thread (Runnable): This Constructor is used for converting Runnable object into Thread object
for entering into run method of Runnable interface by making use of start method of Thread
class without giving thread name.
iv) Thread (Runnable, String): This Constructor is similar to above Constructor but we give thread
name through this Constructor.
Instance methods:
public final void setName (String);
public final String getName ();
The above two methods are used for setting the name of the thread and getting the name
from the thread respectively.
For example:
Thread t1=new Thread ();
T1.setName (JAVA);
String tp=t1.getName ();
System.out.println (tp);// JAVA
The above two methods are used for setting the priority to the thread and getting the
priority of the thread respectively.
For example:
Thread t1=new Thread (); Int
pri=t1.getPriority (); System.out.println
(pri);// 5 by default t1.setPriority
(Thread.MAX_PRIORITY); pri=t1.getPriority
();
System.out.println (pri); // 10
For example:
class C1 extends Thread
{
public void run ()
{
;
;
}
};
For example:
Thread t1=new Thread ();
t1.start ();
Thread t2=Thread.currentThread ();
t2.start ();
Day - 57:
Static methods:
i) public static void sleep (long msec) throws InterruptedException method is used (waiting
state). If the sleep time is over automatically thread will come from waiting state to ready state.
For example:
Thread.sleep (1000);
ii) public static Thread currentThread () is used for obtaining the threads which are running in
the main memory of the computer.
For example:
Thread t=Thread.currentThread ();
System.out.println (t);// Thread [main (fat), 5, main (bat)]
Write a JAVA program to find the threads which are running internally and print priority values.
Answer:
class ThDemo
{
public static void main (String [] args)
{
Thread t=Thread.currentThread ();
System.out.println (t);
t.setName ("ABC");
System.out.println (t);
System.out.println ("IS IT ALIVE..?"+t.isAlive ());// true
Thread t1=new Thread ();// new state
System.out.println ("IS IT ALIVE..?"+t.isAlive ());// false
System.out.println ("DEFAULT NAME OF THREAD = "+t1.getName ());// Thread-0
System.out.println ("MAXIMUM PRIORITY VALUE = "+Thread.MAX_PRIORITY);// 10
System.out.println ("MINIMUM PRIORITY VALUE = "+Thread.MIN_PRIORITY);// 1
System.out.println ("NORMAL PRIORITY VALUE = "+Thread.NORM_PRIORITY);// 5
}
};
Output:
Thread[main,5,main]
Thread[ABC,5,main]
IS IT ALIVE..?true
IS IT ALIVE..?true
DEFAULT NAME OF THREAD = Thread-0
MAXIMUM PRIORITY VALUE = 10
MINIMUM PRIORITY VALUE =
1
NORMAL PRIORITY VALUE =
5
Instance methods:
public boolean isAlive () method is used for checking whether the thread is executing or not. It
returns true as long as the thread is in ready running and waiting states. It returns false as long
as the thread is in new and halted state.
Write a thread program which displays 1 to 10 numbers after each and every 1 second.

Day -59:
SYNCHRONIZATION:
It is the process of allowing only one thread at a time among n number of threads into that
area which is sharable to perform write operation.
If anything (either data members or methods or objects or classes) is sharable then we must
apply the concept of synchronization.
Let us assume that there is a sharable variable called balance whose initial value is zero.
There are two threads t1 and t2 respectively. t1 and t2 want to update the balance variable with
their respective values i.e., 10 and 20 at the same time. After completion of these two threads the
final value in the balance is either 10 or 20 but not 30 which is the inconsistent result. To achieve the
consistent result we must apply the concept of synchronization.
When we apply synchronization concept on the above scenario, when two threads are
started at same time, the first thread which is started is given a chance to update balance variable
with its respective value. When second thread is trying to access the balance variable value JVM
makes the second thread to wait until first thread completes its execution by locking balance
variable value. After completion of first thread the value in the balance is 10 and second thread
will be allowed to update balance variable value. After completion of second thread the value
of the balance is 30, which is the consistent result. Hence, in synchronization locking and unlocking
is taking place until all the threads are completed their execution.
Synchronization Techniques:
In JAVA we have two types of synchronization techniques. They are synchronized methods
and synchronized blocks.
1. Synchronized methods:
If any method is sharable for n number of threads then make the method as synchronized
by using a keyword synchronized.
In JAVA we have two types of synchronized methods. They are synchronized Instance
methods and synchronized static
methods.
Synchronized Instance methods: If the ordinary instance method is made it as synchronized then
the object of the corresponding class will be locked.
Syntax:
synchronized <return type> method name (method parameters if
any)
{
Block of statements;
}
For example:
class Account
{
int bal=0;
synchronized void deposit (int amt)
{
bal=bal+amt;
System.out.println (CURRENT BALANCE = +bal);
}
};
Synchronized static method: If an ordinary static method is made it as synchronized then the
corresponding class will be locked.
Syntax:
synchronized static <return type> method name (method parameters if any)
{
Block of statements;
}
For example:
class Account
{
static int bal=0;
synchronized static void deposit (static int amt)
{
bal=bal+amt;
System.out.println (CURRENT BALANCE = +bal);
}
};
Day -60:
2. Synchronized block:
This is an alternative technique for obtaining the concept of synchronization instead
of synchronized methods.
When we inherit non-synchronized methods from either base class or interface into the
derived class, we cannot make the inherited method as synchronized. Hence, we must use
synchronized blocks.
Syntax:
synchronized (object of current class)
{
Block of statement(s);
}
For example:
class BankOp
{
void deposit (int amt);// p a instance
};
class Account implements BankOp
{
int bal=0;
public void deposit (int amt)
{
synchronized (this);
{
bal=bal+amt;
System.out.println (current value=+bal);
}
}
};
Write a synchronization program in which there exist an account, there exist n number of
customers and all the customers want to deposit 10 rupees to the existing balance of account.
Answer:
class Account
{
private int bal=0;
synchronized void deposit (int amt)
{
bal=bal+amt;
System.out.println ("CURRENT BALANCE="+bal);
}
int getBal ()
{
return (bal);
}
};
class cust extends Thread
{
Account ac;// has-a
relationship cust (Account ac)
{
this.ac=ac;
}
public void run ()
{
ac.deposit (10);
}
};
class SyncDemo
{
public static final int noc=5;
public static void main (String [] args)
{
Account ac=new Account
(); cust cu []=new cust
[noc]; for (int i=0;
i<noc; i++)
{
cu [i]=new cust (ac);// giving account object 'ac' to each & every customer object
}
for (int i=0; i<noc; i++)
{
cu [i].start ();
}
for (int i=0; i<noc; i++)
{
System.out.println ("IS ALIVE..? "+cu [i].isAlive ());
}
try
{
for (int i=0; i<noc; i++)
{
cu [i].join ();
}
}
catch (InterruptedException ie)
{
System.out.println (ie);
}
for (int i=0; i<noc; i++)
{
System.out.println ("IS ALIVE..? "+cu [i].isAlive ());
}
System.out.println ("TOTAL BALANCE="+ac.getBal ());
}
};
Output:
IS ALIVE..? true
IS ALIVE..? true
IS ALIVE..? true
IS ALIVE..? true
CURRENT BALANCE=10
CURRENT BALANCE=20
CURRENT BALANCE=30
CURRENT BALANCE=40
CURRENT BALANCE=50
IS ALIVE..? false
IS ALIVE..? false
IS ALIVE..? false
IS ALIVE..? false
IS ALIVE..? false
IS ALIVE..? false
TOTAL BALANCE=50
NOTE:
If we execute the above program on single user operating systems it is mandatory for the
JAVA programmer to write synchronized keyword since user operating system cannot take care
about synchronization by default. Whereas if we run the above program in multi user or threaded
operating systems we need not to use a keyword synchronized (optional).
It is always recommended to write synchronized keyword irrespective which ever operating
system we use.
Methods in java.lang.Object:
1. public void wait (long msec)
2. public void wait (long msec, int nanosec)
3. public void wait ()
4. public void notify ()
5. public void notifyAll ()
Methods 1 and 2 are used for making the thread to wait for some period of time. Once the
waiting time is over automatically the thread will come from waiting state to ready state. Method 3
is used for making the thread to wait without specifying waiting time. Method 4 is used for bringing
a single waiting thread into ready state. Method 5 is used for bringing all the threads from waiting
state to ready state.

COLLECTION FRAMEWORK:
Collection framework is the standardized mechanism of grouping of similar or dissimilar
type of objects into a single object. This single object is known as collection framework object.
Collection framework is divided into two categories. They are new collection framework and
legacy (old) collection framework.
NEW COLLECTION FRAMEWORK:
New collection framework is again broadly divided into two categories. They are one
dimensional collection framework and two dimensional collection framework.
Da y - 6 3 :
java.util.Collection:
Collection is an interface whose object allows us to organize similar or different type
of objects into single object. The Collection interface is having the following features:
i) It is available at the top of the hierarchy of all the interfaces which are available in the collection
framework.
ii) An object of Collection allows us to add duplicate elements.
iii) Collection object always displays the data in forward direction only.
iv) Collection object will print the data on the console in random order.
v) Collection object always allows us to insert an element at end only i.e., we cannot insert
an element at the specific position.

Day - 64:
NOTE:
Collection framework is nothing but assembling different or similar type of objects and
dissembling similar or different type of objects and it is shown in the following diagrammatic
representation.
4. public boolean isEmpty ():
Returns true when there are no object found in Collection interface object otherwise return
false.
Day -65:
Iterator interface: Iterator is an interface which always uses the extract the data from any
Collection object.
Method 1 is used for checking whether we have next element or not. If next element
available in Collection object it returns true otherwise it returns false. Method 2 is used for
obtaining the next element in the Collection object. Method 3 is used for removing the
element from Collection object. Methods 2 and 3 can be used as long as method 1 returns true.

Interfaces Classes
Collection AbstractCollection implements Collection
List AbstractList extends AbstractCollection implements List
Set AbstractSet extends AbstractCollection implements Set
SortedSet AbstractSequentialList extends AbstractList implements SortedSet
LinkedList extends AbstractSequential
ArrayList extends AbstractSequential
HashSet extends AbstractSet
TreeSet extends AbstractSet
Collection framework classes contains the definition for those methods which are coming
from Collection interfaces i.e., all Collection interface methods defined in collection classes
AbstractCollection implements Collection, AbstractList extends AbstractCollection implements List,
AbstractSet extends AbstractCollection implements Set, AbstractSequentialList extends AbstractList
implements SortedSet, LinkedList extends AbstractSequential, ArrayList extends AbstractSequential,
HashSet extends AbstractSet and TreeSet extends AbstractSet.
The classes AbstractCollection implements Collection, AbstractList extends
AbstractCollection implements List, AbstractSet extends AbstractCollection implements Set and
AbstractSequentialList extends AbstractList implements SortedSet are abstract classes we
never make use of them as a part of real time applications but we make use of the classes
LinkedList extends AbstractSequential, ArrayList extends AbstractSequential, HashSet extends
AbstractSet and TreeSet extends AbstractSet.
java.util.LinkedList:
LinkedList is the concrete sub-class of collection classes. LinkedList object allows us to group
similar or dissimilar type of objects. Creating a LinkedList is nothing but creating an object of
java.util.LinkedList class.
The data is organized in LinkedList in the form of nodes. The node contains two parts, they
are data part, address part.
Data part always gives the actual data which we want to represent. Address part represents
address of the next node.
For the last node in the LinkedList the address part must be NULL which indicates end of the
LinkedList.
LinkedList API:
Constructors:
LinkedList ();
LinkedList (int size);
Instance methods:
Object getFirst (); 1
Object getLast (); 2
public void addFirst (Object obj); 3
public void addLast obj); 4
(Object public void
5
removeFirst ();
6
public void removeLast ();
Methods 1 and 2 are used for obtaining first and last objects of LinkedList respectively.
Methods 3 and 4 are used for adding similar or different objects to the LinkedList object respectively.
Methods 5 and 6 are used for removing first and last objects from LinkedList respectively.
Set: Set does not contain any special method except Collection interface methods.
SortedSet:
SortedSet extends Set. The following are the methods which are specially available in
SortedSet interface.
public Object first ();
public Object last ();
public SortedSet headSet (Object obj); xi <= obj
public SortedSet tailSet (Object obj1, Object
obj2);
Da y - 6 7 :
Disadvantages of LinkedList:
1. Additional memory space is created for address part of the node in heap memory.
2. Retrieval time is more.
3. Since, we are wasting most of the memory space for addresses, performance will be
reduced.
java.util.ArrayList:
ArrayList is also concrete sub-class of collection framework classes whose object allows us
to organize the data either in similar type or in different type.
Creating ArrayList is nothing but creating an object of ArrayList class.
Day - 68:
Map interfaces:
In maps we have three essential interfaces; they are java.util.Map, java.util.Map.Entry and
java.util.SortedMap
java.util.Map:
java.util.Map extends Collection. An object of Map allows to organize the data in the form of
(key, value) pair. Here key and value must be objects. An object of Map allows displaying the data in
that order in which order we have added the data.
Methods:
public boolean put (Object kobj, Object vobj):
This method is used for adding the data in the form of (key, value). This method returns
false when we are trying to add J2SE (core
duplicate JAVA)
key and values.Notes
This method returns true as long as we
enter unique key objects.
J2SE (core JAVA) Notes
public boolean putAll (Map): This method is used for adding one Map object at the end of another
Map object.
public Set entrySet (): This method is used for obtaining the data of the map in the form of Set
object.
public Object get (Object vobj): This method is used for obtaining value of value by passing value of
key object.
public void remove (Object kobj): This method is used for removing the entire map entry by passing
the value of key object.
J2SE (core JAVA) Notes
NOTE:
The following diagram gives an idea about how to organize the data in the form of (key,
value) and how to retrieve the data from Map object.
Da y - 6 9 :
java.util.Map.Entry:
Here Map is an interface and Entry is the class in Map interface. java.util.Map.Entry is used
for retrieving the data separately in the form of key object and value object from the Map object.
Methods:
public Object getKey (); 1
public Object getValue ();
2
Method 1 and 2 is used for obtaining key object and value object separately.
java.util.SortedSet:
SortedMap extends Map. An object of SortedMap displays the data by default in sorted
order.
Methods:
public Object first ();
public Object last ();
public SortedSet headMap (Object kobj); xi <=
kobj public SortedSet tailMap (Object kobj); xi >
kobj
public SortedSet subMap (Object kobj, Object vobj); kobj1 <= xi < kobj2
Map classes:
Map classes contains all the definitions for the abstract methods of Map interface. In
java.util.* package we have the following Map classes and whose hierarchy is given below:
1. AbstractMap implements Map
2. AbstractSortedMap extends AbstractMap implements SortedMap
3. HashMap extends AbstractMap
4. TreeMap extends AbstractSortedMap
HashMap TreeMap
1. It extends AbstractMap. 1. It extends AbstractSortedMap.
2. It follows hashing mechanism. 2. It follows binary tree concept to obtain
data in (k, v) form.
3. Retrieval time is more. 3. Retrieval time is less.
4. Insert, update and delete operations 4. Insert, update and delete operations
takes more time. takes less time.
5. Creating an object of HashMap 5. Creating an object of TreeMap.
6. Random order. 6. Sorted order.
Day - 70:
Interface:
We have only one interface, namely java.util.Enumeration. This interface is used for
extracting the data from legacy collection framework classes.
Classes:
As a part of legacy collection framework we have the following essential classes: Vector,
Stack, Dictionary, Hashtable and properties. Here, Vector and Stack belongs to one
dimensional classes whereas Dictionary, Hashtable and Properties belongs to two dimensional
classes.
What is the difference between normal collection framework and legacy collection framework?
Answer: All the classes in the normal collection framework are by default belongs to non-
synchronized classes whereas all classes in legacy collection framework are by default belongs to
synchronized classes.
Vector:
Its functionality is exactly similar to ArrayList but Vector class belongs to synchronized
whereas ArrayList belongs to non-synchronized class.
Creating a Vector is nothing but creating an object of java.util.Vector class.
Vector API:
Constructors:
Vector ();
1
Vector (int size); 2
Instance methods:
public int size (); 3
public void addItem (Object obj); [old] 4
public void addElement (Object obj); [new] 5
public void addItem (int pos, Object obj); 6
public void addElement (int pos, Object obj);
7 public Object getItem (int pos); 8
public Object remove (int pos); 9
public void remove (Object obj );
10 public void removeAll (); 11
public Enumeration elements (); 12
The methods 4,5,6 and 7 are used for adding an object to the vector either at end or at
specified position. Method-12 is used for extracting the data from vector object.
By Mr. K.V.R Page 130
J2EE (core JAVA) Notes
Enumeration en=v.elements ();
Stack: Stack is the sub-class of Vector class. The basic working principal of Stack is Last In First Out.
Stack API:
Constructors:
Stack ();
Stack (int size);
Instance methods:
public boolean empty (); 1
public void push (Object);
2 public Object pop (); 3
public Object peek (); 4
public int search (Object); 5
Method-1 returns true when the Stack does not contain any elements otherwise false.
Method-2 is used for inserting an object into the Stack. Method-3 is used to remove top most
elements permanently. Method-4 is used to retrieve top most elements without removing. Method-
5 returns relative position of the element, if it found otherwise returns -1.
Day - 71:
Dictionary:
Dictionary is an abstract class, whose object allows to retrieve to store the data in the form
of (key, value) pair. An object of Dictionary never allows duplicate values as key objects and null
values.
Hashtable:
Hashtable is the concrete sub-class of duplicates and where object allows us to store in the
form of (key, value) pair. Hashtable object organizes its data by following hashing mechanism. We
cannot determine in which order the Hashtable displays its data.
Hashtable API:
Constructor:
Hashtable ();
Instance methods:
public boolean put (Object kobj, Object vobj);
1 public void remove (Object kobj); 2
public Object get (Object kobj);
3 public Enumeration keys (); 4
Method-1 is used for obtaining value object by passing key object. If the key object is not
found then the value object is null. Method-2 is used for extracting key objects from Hashtable.
Properties class:
Properties is the sub-class of Hashtable class. Properties class object is used for reading of
maintaining system environmental variables and reading the data from resource data file or
properties file.
Properties API:
Constructor:
Properties ();
Instance Methods:
public void setProperty (Object kobj, Object vobj);
public Object getProperty (Object kobj);
public void load (InputStream);
Day - 72:
NETWORK PROGRAMMING:
Collection of interconnected autonomous or non-autonomous computers is known as
network.
Autonomous represents independent processing power whereas non-
autonomous represents dependent processing.
Aims of networking:
1. Fastest and reliable communication can be achieved.
2. Communication cost is so less.
3. Data can be shared either locally (centralized application) or globally (distributed
application).
As a part of networking we write two types of programs. They are client side programming
and server side programming.
A client side programming is one which always makes a request to get the service from the
server side program.
A server side programming is one which receives client request, process the request
and gives response back to the client.
In order to exchange the data between the client and server we must have a protocol. A
protocol is the set of rules which exchange the data between client and server programs.
When we are developing any client and server application we must follow certain steps at
client side and server side.
Socket: In order to develop the program at client side we must use the class Socket.
So c k e t A P I :
Constructor:
Socket (String hname, int Portno) throws UnknownHostException, IOException
Instance methods:
public OutputStream getOutputStream ();
1 public InputStream getInputStream ();
2 public void close (); 3
Method-1 is used for establishing the connection with server socket by passing host name
and port number of the server side program. Method-2 is used for writing the data to the server side
program. Method-3 is used for receiving or reading the response given by the server side program.
Method-4 is used for closing socket or client communication with the server.
Socket s=new Socket (localhost, 7001);
ServerSocket: In order to develop the program at server side we must use the class ServerSocket.
ServerSocket API:
Constructor:
ServerSocket (int portno) throws IOException 1
Instance methods:
public Socket accept ();
2 public void close (); 3
Method-1 is used for making the server side program to run at certain port number.
Method-2 is used for accepting socket data (client data). Method-3 is used for closing or terminating
server side program i.e., ServerSocket program.
Write a java program which illustrates the concept of Socket and ServerSocket classes?
Answer:
server.java:
import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;
class server
{
public static void main (String [] args)
{
try
{
int pno=Integer.parseInt (args [0]);
ServerSocket ss=new ServerSocket (pno);
System.out.println ("SERVER IS READY");
while (true)
{
Socket s=ss.accept ();
InputStream is=s.getInputStream ();
DataInputStream dis=new DataInputStream (is);
int n=dis.readInt ();
System.out.println ("VALUE OF CLIENT = "+n);
int res=n*n;
OutputStream os=s.getOutputStream ();
DataOutputStream dos=new DataOutputStream (os);
dos.writeInt (res);
}
}
catch (Exception e)
{
System.out.println (e);
}
}
};
client.java:
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
class client
{
public static void main (String [] args)
{
try
{
String sname=args [0];
int pno=Integer.parseInt (args [1]); Socket s=new
Socket (sname, pno); System.out.println ("CLIENT
CONNECTED TO SERVER"); OutputStream
os=s.getOutputStream (); DataOutputStream dos=new
DataOutputStream (os);
int n=Integer.parseInt (args [2]);
dos.writeInt (n);
InputStream is=s.getInputStream ();
DataInputStream dis=new DataInputStream (is);
int res=dis.readInt ();
System.out.println ("RESULT FROM SERVER = "+res);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
System.out.println (e);
}
}
};
Day - 73:
Disadvantages of networking:
1. We are able to develop only one-one communication or half-duplex or walky talky
applications only.
2. We are able to get only language dependency (client side and server side we must write only
java programs).
3. There is no support of predefined protocol called http.
4. There is no internal support of third party servers such as tomcat, weblogic, etc.
5. We are able to develop only intranet applications but not internet applications.
DESIGN PATTERNS:
Design patterns are set of predefined proved rules by industry experts to avoid recurring
problems which are occurring in software development. As a part of information technology
we have some hundreds of design patterns but as a part of J2SE so far we have two types of
design patterns. They are factory method and Singleton class.
A method is said to be a factory method if and only if whose return type must be similar to
name of the class where it presents.
Rules for factory method:
1. Every factory method must be public method.
2. Every factory method must be similar to name of the class where it presents.
A Singleton class is one which allows us to create only one object for JVM. Every Singleton
class must contain one object on its own and it should be declared as private. Every
Singleton class contains at least one factory method. Default constructor of Singleton class
must be made it as private.
Write a java program which illustrates the concept of factory method and Singleton process?
Answer:
class Stest
{
private static Stest st;
private Stest ()
{
System.out.println ("OBJECT CREATED FIRST TIME");
}
public static Stest create ()
{
if (st==null)
{
st=new Stest ();
}
else
{
System.out.println ("OBJECT ALREADY CREATED");
}
return (st);
}
};
class DpDemo
{
public static void main (String [] args)
{
Stest st1=Stest.create ();
Stest st2=Stest.create ();
Stest st3=Stest.create ();
if ((st1==st2)&&(st2==st3)&&(st3==st1))
{
System.out.println ("ALL OBJECTS ARE SAME");
}
else
{
System.out.println ("ALL OBJECTS ARE NOT SAME");
}
}
};
Day - 74:
STRING HANDLING: A string is the sequence of characters enclosed within double quotes.
For example:
Java is a programming language
In order to deal with strings we have two classes. They are java.lang.String and
java.lang.StringBuffer
Constructor-1 is used for creating empty string. Constructor-2 is used for creating a String
object by taking another string parameter. Constructor-3 is used for converting sequence of
characters into string.
Instance methods:
public char charAt (int);
1 public int length (); 2
public boolean equals (String); 3
public boolean equalsIgnoreCase (String);
4 public String concat (String); 5
public boolean startsWith (String);
6 public boolean endsWith (String);
7
Method-1 is used for obtaining a character from a string by specifying valid character
position. Method-2 is used for obtaining number of characters in the string. Method-3 is used for
comparing two strings. If two strings are equal in its case and meaning then this method returns true
otherwise false. Method-4 is used for comparing two strings by considering meaning by
ignoring case. Method-5 is used for concatenating two strings and the result is stored in
another string. Method-6 returns true provided the target String object present in first position
of source String object otherwise false. Method-7 returns true provided the String object present in
last position of source String object otherwise false.
Static methods:
public static String valueOf (byte);
public static String valueOf (short);
public static String valueOf (int);
public static String valueOf (long);
public static String valueOf (float);
public static String valueOf (double);
public static String valueOf (char);
public static String valueOf (boolean);
These methods are used for converting any fundamental value into String object and this
method is overloaded method.
public String substring (int start); 1
public String substring (int start, int end); 2
Method-1 is used for obtaining the characters from specified position to end character
position. Method-2 is used for obtaining those characters by specifying starting position to ending
position.
Day - 75:
StringBuffer class:
Whenever we create an object of StringBuffer we get 16 additional characters memory
space. Hence an object of StringBuffer is mutable object.
StringBuffer API:
1. StringBuffer ()
2. StringBuffer (String)
3. StringBuffer (char [])
4. StringBuffer (int size)
Constructor-1 is used for creating an object of StringBuffer whose default capacity is 16 additional
characters memory space.
For example:
StringBuffer sb=new StringBuffer ();
System.out.println (sb.capacity ());
Constructor-4 is used for creating an StringBuffer object with from specific size.
For example:
StringBuffer sb=new StringBuffer (256);
Sb=JAVA IS AN APPLICATION;
Instance methods:
1. public int length ();
This method is used for determining the length of the string.
JVM Architecture
3. Execute engine:
When a JVM is compiling in a java program in that context JVM is known as
compiler. When a JVM is running a java program in that context JVM is known as interpreter.
JVM reads the byte code of .class line by line. Byte codes are set of optimized
instructions which are used by JVM for generating the result of the java programs.
Method interface in the JVM architecture represents the middle man role between
JVM (execution engine) and java API. Java API contains collection of packages.
For example:
jar cfv sathya.jar *.class
5. javap: It is used to see the API of the specific class or interface which belongs to a specified
package.
