Difference Between Explicit In Class Initialization And Non Static Instance Initialization

Dec 20, 2014

I come from a C++ background and I recently started learning Java from "Thinking in Java" 4th Edition by Bruce Eckel.What's the difference between:

// explicit in class initialization
// saw this on page 126

class A {

}

public class B {
A obj1 = new A();
A obj2 = new A();
}

and

// non static instance initialization
// saw this on page 132

class A {
}
public class B {
A obj1;
A obj2;
{
obj1 = new A();
obj2 = new A();
}
}

Will Initialization Of HashMap On Different Place Make Any Difference

Nov 21, 2014

public class HashMapTest {
private static HashMap mp;
public static void main(String[] args) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
mp=new HashMap<String, String>();
}
}

This is My Code if I create Object in two place
1)Outside main() method but within class.
2)Inside main() method like above

Will these two approach makes any difference ?

I am asking a general senerio for creating any Type of Objects Primitives or References?

Declaration And Initialization On Separate Statement In A Class

Jan 29, 2015

I know that I can declare and initialize an member variable inside a class in a single statement but I can't do them on separate sentence. Why?

For example, I am allowed to do the following,

class A{
int a = 5;
// rest of the class
}

But I am not allowed to do this,
class A{
int a;
a = 5; // it doesn't compile even when the variable 'a' is static
// rest of the class
}

Why java don't allow me to do that?

Difference Between Instance And Class Variable

Mar 25, 2014

I'm having trouble to fully understand the difference between instance and class variables.

I though it was all about the static, i.e:

int age; // instance variable
static int age; // class variable

What's behind this?

Recursion On Initialization

Apr 29, 2014

I am trying to make a game, for some reason i have begun to get a java.lang.StackOverflowError.

I am not exactly sure how i can fix it. only removing line 14 from infopannel1 (and everything that used that class.) seems to work. im not sure what else i can do to fix it. or why its resulting in stack overflow for that matter.

I am putting in a link for the files i wrote this using bluej (several classes have no relevance, errorv2, demonstration, folderreadertest, ReadWithScanner, saveloadtest, menutest,rannum, and menutestTester. are all irrelivent to my problem.)

Order Of Initialization

Sep 17, 2014

I came across this code which proves that variable initialisation occurs before even constructors are called.However, I am confused over some things.

Firstly, from my understanding, when a new House object is created in this line House h = new House(); , the no-arg constructor of the House class is called.

Since the no-arg constructor House() is called, why are all the creation of Window objects being run first ? Shouldn't Java jump straight into the no-arg constructor House() ?

class Window {
Window(int marker) { System.out.println("Window(" + marker + ")"); }
}
class House {
Window w1 = new Window(1); // Before constructor
House() {
// Show that we’re in the constructor:
System.out.println("House()");
w3 = new Window(33); // Reinitialize w3

[code]...

Initialization And Default Values

Mar 20, 2015

I have a question related to q44 of Examlab.

public static void main(String... args) {
String i;
// String i = null; that would compile
if (i == null) {// this line does not compile as i was not initialized
System.out.print("A");
} else {
System.out.print("B");
i = "A";
main("A", "B");
}
}

Why does the above code not compile although the statement String i should lead to an initialisation of i to the value of null which is the default value for Strings.

Default Initialization To Appropriate Value By Compiler

Feb 20, 2014

I remember reading Instance variables & local variables (in methods) are initialized to appropriate value by the compiler.

Is this true for static class variables and variables in nested classes ?

JSP :: Accessing ServletConfig Initialization Parameters

May 12, 2014

I am trying a simple program to access ServletConfig initialization parameter in a jsp. But I am not clear how its working. This is web.xml

<web-app>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Myservlet</servlet-name>
<jsp-file>/JjspInit.jsp</jsp-file>
<init-param>
<param-name>para</param-name>
<param-value>valu</param-value>

[Code] ....

Now If I hit /Allen it sets init parameter for both servlet MyServlet and jsp JjspInit. I don`t have any servlet all I have is a web.xml and a jsp page. But accessing JjspInit.jsp directly gives null.

How hiting the url /Allen prints valu. This code is on JjspInit.jsp .

So does that mean that in web.xml I have registered this jsp as the target for /Allen. And one more question directly accessing the jsp page shows null it means init parameter haven`t been set.

Servlets :: Initialization With Different Scope / Context

Jan 13, 2015

I want to initialize my servlet based on the scope of my application.

For example, I have multiple admins with their respective email address.

I want to perform action within my servlet based on the given environment.

Would this be the right approach, if I set the admin email addresses in my web.xml as init-param:

<servlet>
<servlet-name>ServletName</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>com.mkyong.ServletDemo</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>admin1</param-name>

[Code] .....

Now if I am in the admin 1 environment, I would initialize my servlet with request parameter admin=1 and the servlet should load email address of admin 1 and similarly when in the environment 2, should load the servlet with admin 2.

call environment 1:
/servlet/Demo?admin=1
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws IOException{

[Code] .....

I could do the same by putting the email address of the respective admin as request param value, but i don't want to the email address to appear in the url.

Why Array Initialization Does Not Give Error

Feb 18, 2014

int[][] array1 = {{1, 2, 3}, {}, {1, 2,3, 4, 5}};

it initializes 3 one dimentional array:

1 - {1, 2, 3}
2 - {}
3 - {1, 2,3, 4, 5}

but it only declares two dimensional arrays.

Final Field Initialization With Exceptions

May 11, 2014

consider:
 
class A {
     final Object b;
     public A(C c) {
          try {
               b = c.someMethodThatMayThrowSomeException();
          } catch (SomeException e) {
               b = null; // This line results in compiler error: "variable b might already have been assigned"
          }
     } // take away b=null line and you get "variable b might not have been initialized" on this line
}
 
Why? How could 'b' be assigned if the exception was thrown?
 
Btw, the workaround is to wrap the method call:
 
private final Object initB() {
     try {
          return c.someMethodThatMayThrowSomeException();
     } catch (SomeException e) {
          return null;
     }
}
 
and use b = initB(); in the constructor.  But that seems like it should be unnecessary.

Blackjack Program - Error Occurred During Initialization Of VM

May 21, 2014

I've been trying to finish this blackjack program I have been making for my programming class, however, there are a few bugs I can't seem to iron out. It's a pretty short program, it's just that I'm an idiot and can't figure basic stuff like this out. Specifically, when I try and run it, I get this error:

Error occurred during initialization of VM
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: unable to create new native thread

Java Code:

import static java.lang.System.*;
import java.applet.Applet;

So, obviously I'm doing something horribly wrong.

Instance Variables Passed In As Arguments To Static Methods?

Feb 19, 2011

I thought static methods could never use instance variables, because they wouldn't know which instance to look at.

From Head First Java, p. 284: "A static method is not associated with a particular instance - only the class - so it cannot access any instance variable values of its class. It wouldn't know which instance's values to use."

Now I was answering some mock exam questions from Cameron McKenzie's SCJA book, and I don't understand one of the options. On page 205, the last question has an option that says: "Instance variables ... are not visible in static methods, unless passed in as arguments." This option is supposed to be correct. Now... how does that work?

Static And Final Variable / Field - Functional Difference?

Sep 15, 2014

I'm not really sure I understand the functional difference between a static and final variable/field. Oracle defines Class Variable as:

Class Variables (Static Fields) A class variable is any field declared with the static modifier; this tells the compiler that there is exactly one copy of this variable in existence, regardless of how many times the class has been instantiated. A field defining the number of gears for a particular kind of bicycle could be marked as static since conceptually the same number of gears will apply to all instances. The code static int numGears = 6; would create such a static field. Additionally, the keyword final could be added to indicate that the number of gears will never change.

If static will have the same value regardless of how many times it's used, then why use final (or vice versa)?

Can Static Method Return Instances Of Same Class In Special Case Where Everything Is Static?

Jun 27, 2014

From what i understand static methods should be called without creating an instance of the same class . If so why would they return an instance of the same class like in the following : public static Location locateLargest(double[][] a) , the Location class being the same class where the method is defined . I don't understand this , does it mean that every field and every method in the class must be static ? Meaning that you cannot have instances of the class because everything is static . Or it's just a mistake and the class Location cannot have a static method: public static Location locateLargest(double[][] a) ?
