Declaring Methods For A Class In Its Own Class Whilst Objects Of Class Declared Elsewhere?

Mar 5, 2015

How do you declare methods for a class within the class whilst objects of the class are declared else where?

Say for instance, I have a main class Wall, and another class called Clock, and because they are both GUI based, I want to put a Clock on the Wall, so I have declared an instance object of Clock in the Wall class (Wall extends JFrame, and Clock extends JPanel).

I now want to have methods such as setClock, resetClock in the Clock class, but im having trouble in being able to refer to the Clock object thats been declared in the Wall class.

Is this possible? Or am I trying to do something thats not possible? Or maybe I've missed something really obvious?

Declaring Class In Main Class - Constructor Cannot Applied To Given Types

Aug 1, 2014

So i declared a class in main class but it seems there's error when i compile:

constructor xx in class xx cannot applied to given types

This is my java class:

public class trainer extends person{
String classType;
public trainer(String name, String gender, String address, int id, String classType) {
super(name,gender,address,id);
this.classType=classType;

[Code] ....

And this is the way i declared in main class:

trainer tr = new trainer();

And what i want to do is:

tr.toString();

Declaring Object Using Interface Implemented By Its Class Vs Declaring Object Using Class

Apr 8, 2014

Suppose you have a generic Dog class of the pet type that implements a DogInterface of the pet type. What is the difference between;

DogInterface<pet> Rex = new Dog<pet>();

and

Dog<pet> Tye = new Dog<pet>();

In what situations might you want to use Rex instead of Tye?

Methods From Original Class Receiving Error When In Test Class

Jul 5, 2014

I am working on a program that simulates a bug moving along a horizontal line, My code works correctly when I test it in it's own class but when I tried testing my constructor and methods in a test class I received an error saying, "package stinkBug does not exist" on lines with my methods. However, stinkbug is not a package.

Java Code:

Pass Objects From 3 Different Methods At Random To Different Class And Store In Array?

Jun 8, 2014

in my progrm there are three diff array of objects...namely garments..gadgets and home app...now one who buys from each of these sections will have to make a bill at last...when he choses to make the bill he will be shown the list of products he bought and their details (like price...brand...etc)...so i thought that while he orders each product(which is done in a previous method called purchase()...)....(each product is stored as an object in there diif arrays namely garments...gadgets ...appliances)....each of those object will be copied in a new array in a diif class...then that array print will give me the desired result...

is this approach correct...?and if its correct then how can i pull out a specific obj frm a stored array of object and then save it in a new array....?

Declaring Enums - Could Not Find Or Load Main Class

Feb 25, 2014

I've just started, so right now I'm reading about declaring enums, the book lists the following code

enum CoffeeSize {
//8,10 & 16 are passed to the constuctor
BIG(6), HUGE(10), OVERWHELMING(16);
CoffeeSize(int ounces){ //constructor
this.ounces = ounces;

[Code] .....

I'm assuming that code to be in a same file since enums can be declared within and outside a class, so I saved it into a file named "Coffee.java", it compiles just fine from command line but when I try to execute "java Coffee" it throws "Error: Could not find or load main class Coffee"...

Method Implementation Declaring Exception Other Than That Declared In Interface

Aug 31, 2014

The 2 minute drill from page 69 SCJP kathy and bert book, says regarding Interfaces, that - "A legal nonabstract implementing class must not declare any new checked exceptions for an implementation method."

When I try the below given code in eclipse , it does not throw any errors . (Here I have tried to throw NullPointerException from testFunc whereas the interface function throws IllegalStateExc)

package abstracttesting;
public class StaticCheck implements check{
public void testFunc() throws NullPointerException{
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
} public static void main(String[] args) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
}
interface check{
void testFunc() throws IllegalStateException;

Now I want to use this method in anObject class, but I can't call it because I don't have created object jet. Is there any way to call this method?

Creating Objects From Class

Aug 17, 2014

So I'm still trying to get to grips with Java, and like to understand exactly why I'm doing something, so that I am not just regurgitating the code, If I want to create an object from class "Apples", I would use the following, right?

Apples MyAppleObject = new Apples();

From what I understand, MyAppleObject is the new object name, new -> creates a new instance of it in memory, and Apples() is the onCreate method that is called

So question 1: (just a quick aside question) Can I create an object without calling Apples()? i.e.

Apples MyAppleObject = new;

Question 2: - PARTLY SOLVED - I discovered that (Button) is a way of typecasting, so I understand that line a little better. What I don't understand is why we don't need to initialize the object with "new"

I've now looked at a bit of android development and xml and those declarations are all together different, and I'm not sure why. I haven't found a single explanation for the difference in format.

Java Code:

Button Add;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Add = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1); mh_sh_highlight_all('java'); So the Button object is declared above the onCreate method, but initialized afterwards I guess....

But instead of using Button Add = new Button() they use Add = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);

Question 3:

then In XML they use the following:

Java Code:

public*static*void*main(String[] args){
*********
********// Creates a DOM object in memory. Now you can access
********// data in the xml file
*********
********Document xmlDoc = getDocument("./src/tvshows5.xml"); mh_sh_highlight_all('java');

Once again, why didn't they have to use : Document xmlDoc = new Document()

Methods In Object Class

Jan 16, 2014

We know that all classes in Java extend the Object class. But methods in Object class are declared as public.I think if they were declared as protected, then also there wont have been any issue. So, what is the reason behind making them as public?

Servlets :: Calling DoGet Of Child Class From Service Of Parent Class

May 28, 2014

Regarding the lifecycle of servlet , in headfirst servlet i can find :

You normally will NOT override the service() method, so the one from HttpServlet will run. The service() method figures out which HTTP method (GET, POST, etc.) is in the request, and invokes the matching doGet() or doPost() method. The doGet() and doPost() inside HttpServlet don’t do anything, so you have to override one or both. This thread dies (or is put back in a Container-managed pool) when service() completes.

How can I call the doGet method of the subclass from the superclass. i am not getting this .

Declare Array Of Parent Class But Instantiate Index To Sub Class Using Polymorphism

Apr 14, 2015

I have a quick polymorphism question. I have a parent class and a sub class that extends the parent class. I then declare an array of parent class but instantiate an index to the sub class using polymorphism. Do I have to have all the same methods in the child class that I do in the parent class? Here is an example of what I mean.

public class ParentClass
{
public ParentClass(....){ }
public String doSomething(){ }
}
public class ChildClass extends ParentClass
{
public ChildClass(....)

[Code] ....

Is polymorphism similar to interfaces where the child class needs all the same methods?
