Displaying Override In Inheritance

Jul 11, 2014

I'm learning about inheritance and part of my problem is to create an Order with methods, then an UpdateOrder where the total price is changed by adding four dollars to it, and then a main method displaying a few orders. I've copied all three below in order. My question is when I run the program it will display the totalprice() first for the second order followed by name, number, etc.what you override always displayed first regardless of the order you put them in? (The issue is at line 31 on the third code.)

import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class Order { //superclass
private String customerName;
private int customerNumber;
protected int quantityOrdered;
protected double unitPrice;
protected double totalPrice;

[code]....

Override The Clone Method?

May 14, 2014

the clone method of the object class is protected, so therefore we have to override this method I understand this. What doesn't make sense to me is that the protected access modifier gives access to classes in the same package and subclasses. Isn't every single class we make a subclass of the Object Class?

Object Method Override

Mar 7, 2014

I read the following comment at stackoverflow.com. It is not clear to me why equals in the code below does not override - i looked up Object class equals() and the signature is same.

public class Foo {
private String id;
public boolean equals(Foo f) { return id.equals(f.id);}
}

This class compiles as written, but adding the @Override tag to the equals method will cause a compilation error as it does not override the equals method on Object.

How To Know Order Of Method Which Override Or Not

Dec 29, 2014

I have some codes as below:
 
public class Hello
 {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
  new Student().fun();
  }
}
class Person

[Code] ....
 
Now the output is "Person". if i hide the "PRIVATE" in class PERSON, that is, method PRINT in class STUDENT override the same method in its father class, then the output is "Student". Why? I mean, how does the program know what PRINT method should be called?

Can't Override A Method - It Still Ask For Level 1.5 Or Greater

Apr 29, 2014

I'm using "standard-kepler-SR2-win32-x86_64" and have installed "jdk-8u5-windows-x64".

But eventhough I can't override a methode like that "@override", it still says me:"annotations are only available, if source lever is 1.5 or greater".

Fine, therefore I installad "jdk-8u5-windows-x64", its the higest one on that oracle side, what else is needed?

Override Equal And Hashcode Method

Jul 7, 2014

I read this tutorial about overriding equal and hashcode method. [URL] ....

I understand how to override equal method, by overriding it, We can custom our compare. I also understand How to override hashcode, To make custom hash.

But still I can not understand why we do it? why if equal method override, we must override hashcode method too?If we don't what is the problem?

To honor the above contract we should always override hashCode() method whenever we override equals() method. If not, what will happen? If we use hashtables in our application, it will not behave as expected. As the hashCode is used in determining the equality of values stored, it will not return the right corresponding value for a key.

Is it the right reason in order to override:

Because when we customize equal method so it focus on special variables,We must change the hash code too in order to match with it, so hashcode also focus on those special variable.

Override Certain Methods In Class File?

Oct 16, 2014

I am wanting to override certain methods in some Minecraft class files, and tell those class files to use code from my class files.

And no, I don't mean extend a class. When I try to extend from the main Block.Class, it makes that file as another block file for the game, or something.

So like, I want to tell the main file that handles block registries to use the code from my class file to register my custom blocks to the list of blocks, but without modifying that main block file.

Is this even something that's possible?

Also, I know that the way a file is named affects the loading order. My class files would be named using symbols to make it load right before the class file I want to override.

Swing/AWT/SWT :: SetLayout Does Not Override Or Implement Method From Super Type?

Sep 12, 2014

I am trying to make a ChessBoard class composed of an array of JLabels inside a JPanel with a grid layout. I am also trying to override the getPreferredSize method so that the board will change size when I resize the main window (in another class in which I will instancize this class as part of a larger GUI). I got this kind of layout working before, but now I am trying to get it to work with multiple classes. However, after copying in the part of the previous code corresponding to the panel's layout, I am encountering some errors that I don't know how to solve. Specifically, when I try to override the getPreferredSize method, the compiler tells me "method does not override or implement a method from a super type, " and that it can't find the method "getPreferredSize"

Here's my code:

public class ChessBoard extends JPanel//the panel that this class extends is the boardHousing
{
//mental chess board piece array
Piece mentalBoard[][] = new Piece[8][8];
//actual GUI chessboard JLabel Array
static JLabel chessBoard[][] = new JLabel[8][8];

[Code] ....

I would just think that I was overriding the method incorrectly, but the weird thing is that I got that specific section of code to work before -- the only thing different now is that there are multiple classes, so my ChessBoard class itself is extending JPanel.

Static Fields And Inheritance

Apr 17, 2014

If I define a class which contains a few static fields, and then have a few classes who inherit this class, then all these classes would have the static field as well. Now my question is the following: would all those sub classes (and the base class itself) share the same object, or would each class have one object for all it's instances?

Inheritance For Word Pattern

Apr 24, 2014

I am in an intro programming class and we got assigned a problem for creating a super class with about a dozen sub classes for generating a random word(via WordGetter class) and then comparing that word to a variety of different patterns(like: does the word contain "re"). We were given the super class which looks like this...

public class Pattern {
public boolean matches(String text) {
return true;
}
public String toString() {
return "(TRUE)";

[code]...

and from this class, we have to write subclasses that override those three methods. I am struggling to understand inheritance and I am not really sure where to even start. Here is the instructions for the first sub class we need to write...

"CONTAINS" SUBCLASS
Constructor: The constructor accepts a String named ‘letters’.

Matches: This pattern matches any text that contains at least one occurrence of each ‘letter’.
toString: produces the text “(CONTAINS <LETTERS>)” where <LETTERS> is the ‘letters’ string.
getLetters(): this method must return letters.
equals(Object): careful on this one. Two Contains are equal if they have the same letters (order is not relevant).
(Example):

Pattern p = new Contains(“re”);
boolean f1 = p.matches(“renew”); // f1 is true
boolean f2 = p.matches(“zoo”); // f2 is false
String s = p.toString(); // s is “(CONTAINS re)”
boolean f3 = p.equals(new Contains(“er”)); // f3 is true.. really..

Inheritance And Private Methods

Jul 6, 2014

The first is clear , new Person().printPerson(); displays Person but for the second : new Student().printPerson(); it accesses the Student constructor that points to the Person class => object. It builds the Person instance then goes back to the Student constuctor .Both methods are private and to my knowledge invisible one to the other , except that you cant run the the Person one because it's private so the only one in the Student class is the Student one . Guess it 's incorrect , but why ? (is because private methods cant be overriden and somehow the super class one always has priority ? , even if it's private?)

public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
new Person().printPerson();
new Student().printPerson();

Inheritance Method Calls

Jun 25, 2014

If i have 2 classes, Top and ClassB which extends Top

public class Top {
String variable;
public Top(){
setVariable();
}
void setVariable(){
variable = "variable is initialized in Main Class";

[code]....

So what is happening when ClassB inherits from Top?I know that the B constructor is calling super, so does that mean its calling setVariable (in Top?) but as its overridden in ClassB, then that is whats being called and setting the String variable?

Implementing Inheritance In Java

Apr 25, 2014

i was leaning inheritance and tried to implement it in Java.This is my base class vehicl.java

public class vehicle{
private int topSpeed;
private int cubicCap;
private String modelName;
private boolean hasAlloy;

[code]...

I also have a derived class called car.java.What i wanted to do in the derived class was that i wanted to override the constructor as well as the getInfo() method from the base class.I wanted to add an additional attribute to the car "numberSeats" and display tat too when the object to car class calls the getInfo() method .It showed an error "identifier required" when i tried to compile car.java program.

import java.util.Scanner;
public class car extends vehicle{
//int numberSeats;
//System.out.println("Enter the number of Seats");
Scanner numberSeats=new Scanner(System.in);
numberSeats=numberSeats.nextInt();
//System.out.println(numberSeats.nextInt());

[code]....

explain the errors that i get when i tried to compile car.java without using super keyword or without defining the constructor from the Car class ?

How Does Inheritance Work With Abstract Classes

Nov 19, 2014

I am writing small pieces of code to make sure I understand Java basics and I have the following.

package teams1;
public abstract class Team1{
private String sport = new String();
public abstract String getSport();
public abstract void setSport();
}
import teams1.*;

[Code] .....

It doesn't compile because sport is private in the super class, but I thought FootballTeam1 would inherit it's own copy of sport because it is extending Team1.

How To Simplify Classes By Using Interfaces And / Or Inheritance

Apr 6, 2014

I am trying to figure out how I can most easily make it easier to make new types of units in my game. I have buildings and ships, and would like to know how I could make it easy to add new units. I have been recently told about interfaces, and have worked with inheritance a little bit.

What I would like to able to do is have it so that all of the variables and methods common to all ships could be stored in a superclass or interface, and same with the buildings. I would also like to be able to assign behaviours to the buildings and ships, maybe as interfaces, which could contain all of the methods and variables required for the functions of that ship or building.

For example, creating a new type of building that can shoot, build ships, and can regenerate nearby ships. So it would possible inherit all of the variables and methods common to all buildings, such as health, image, x, y, getX(), getY() etc. But it would then also gain the variables and methods essential for its functionality, such as shootRange, shoot(), regenRate, etc.

How could this best be achieved?

Calling Methods From Top Of Inheritance Chain?

Jul 14, 2014

So I'm just a little unclear about this, but how would I call methods from the 'top' of an inheritance chain? I say 'top' because Object is the top... E.g.:

public class AClass {
public void myMethod() { ... }
}
public class BClass extends AClass {
public void myMethod() { ... }
}
public class CClass extends AClass {
public void myMethod() { ... }
}

Assuming that BClass.myMethod() completely overrides AClass.myMethod() (so that there is no call to super.myMethod() in BClass.myMethod()) How can I call AClass.myMethod() from CClass.myMethod()?
