So I want to know how in Java you can pass a unkown type into a method (type can be an int, double, or a user defined object) and return that unkown type.
example of what I want:
Java Code:
public (unknowntype)[] method2 ((unknowntype)[])
//Process Data
//unknowntype.process();
return (unknowntype);
} mh_sh_highlight_all('java');
I know in C you can use void pointers and in c++ we have templates but I do not know how java handles this. Also I want to know if it is possible to call a method in the unknowntype.
I'm a independent IT contractor. On 2 systems this week I've experienced an issue when attempting to download JAVA the file is of an unknown type in IE. See attached. Alternative browsers on the same machine function properly.
I am totally new to Java. What is the purpose of this method?
Flow of the int x=3; like where does the 3 go step by step?
Passing Primitive Data Type Arguments (from oracle java tutorials)
Primitive arguments, such as an int or a double, are passed into methods by value. This means that any changes to the values of the parameters exist only within the scope of the method. When the method returns, the parameters are gone and any changes to them are lost. Here is an example:
public class PassPrimitiveByValue { public static void main(String[] args) { int x = 3; // invoke passMethod() with // x as argument passMethod(x);
Primitive arguments, such as an int or a double, are passed into methods by value. This means that any changes to the values of the parameters exist only within the scope of the method. When the method returns, the parameters are gone and any changes to them are lost.
Reference data type parameters, such as objects, are also passed into methods by value. This means that when the method returns, the passed-in reference still references the same object as before. However, the values of the object's fields can be changed in the method, if they have the proper access level.For example, consider a method in an arbitrary class that moves Circle objects:
public void moveCircle(Circle circle, int deltaX, int deltaY) { // code to move origin of // circle to x+deltaX, y+deltaY circle.setX(circle.getX() + deltaX); circle.setY(circle.getY() + deltaY);
// code to assign a new // reference to circle circle = new Circle(0, 0); }
Let the method be invoked with these arguments: moveCircle(myCircle, 23, 56)
Inside the method, circle initially refers to myCircle. The method changes the x and y coordinates of the object that circle references (i.e., myCircle) by 23 and 56, respectively. These changes will persist when the method returns. Then circle is assigned a reference to a new Circle object with x = y = 0. This reassignment has no permanence, however, because the reference was passed in by value and cannot change. Within the method, the object pointed to by circle has changed, but, when the method returns, myCircle still references the same Circle object as before the method was called.
I'm new to Java and I have a problem with a method, I can't see the code of the method, I just have a jar, but it should return a boolean, something like this:
boolean band = false; band = TestClass.testMethod("blabla"); // band = false
The problem is that the method seems that is returning nothing (band remain false), and if I initialize band to true:
boolean band = false; band = TestClass.testMethod("blabla"); // band = true
band remain true, in other words, the value of band is never modified, the question is, how is this possible? because it should return the same value on both calls, true or false, no matter the initial value of the variable that is receiving the returning value of the method.
I am working on a project which manages an airport's airplanes and flights based on user input. The method printFlights() - lines 133-134 - is returning null and I can't figure out why. The method is supposed to print information about each flight. The logic is identical to the printPlanes() method which is working successfully.
Now that I have figured out how to return a single variable from a method I am on to the next step, I need to return 2 or 3 variables from a method. I have searched the internet on how to do this to no avail (am I doing the wrong search? I do not know) but what I need to do is return a second (and eventually a third variable)
Here is what I have
private static String Engine() { String engine = ""; int enginePrice = 0; System.out.println("Choose a engine size:"); System.out.println("[4] cylinder");
I'm using apache POI to input data from a excel database. I have a method that is supposed to count the number of rows containing data so I can use that number to initialize an object array. It's returning one more than the actual number of rows and I can't figure out why.
public int getDataRange() throws IOException{ int rowCount = 0; Iterator<Row> rows = sheet.rowIterator(); while(rows.hasNext()){ HSSFRow row = (HSSFRow) rows.next(); rowCount++;
[Code] .....
I get an array index out of bounds exception at the highlighted line.
I am trying to return an array and I keep getting a null error. The below class sets the material numbers into an array and should return that array if called :
public class Jobs { private int[] materialsNumber; //change to parts and create another class that gets the materials for the parts public int[] job1() { materialsNumber[0] = 11960120;
[Code] ....
I later try to call the method. The program executes but stops after I println "test in loop"
public class PurchaseOrdersToParts { private Jobs job = new Jobs(); int[] getPartsForPurchaseOrder(BigDecimal purchaseOrder) { System.out.println("inside getparts"); BigDecimal testNum = new BigDecimal(123.0);
[Code] ....
This is the method that is calling the method in the GenerateOrdersToParts class
private PurchaseOrdersToParts purchaseOrdersToParts = new PurchaseOrdersToParts(); @Inject PoRepository poRepository; public GenerateShopJobTickets() {
So i have used the "remove()" method in conjunction with an iterator to remove an object from a HashSet in my program, and part of my exercise requires me to return said object. What I can do to return an object that has been removed using "remove()" method?
I need to write a method that will consume string representation of Object type and will return one object of this type. How to set return type for the method in this case?
Here is exmaple :
public <?> identifyType(String typeString){ if (typesString.matches("String")){ return new String(""); }else if (typeString.matches("Integer")){ return new Integer(0); } //....etc..}
public Polygon polygonFrom(Point[] corners) { // method body goes here }
So from what I understand this is a constructor method for a Polygon object from the Polygon class. What I dont get is the name of the method polygonFrom()
Shouldn't a constructor for a Polygon just have the same name as the class? Because from earlier examples in the tutorial it seems to me that this is what has been done
For example:
public Bicycle(int startCadence, int startSpeed, int startGear) { gear = startGear; cadence = startCadence; speed = startSpeed; }
Java SE Runtime Environment build 1.8.0..This is part of the code:
public static int addAddress (String[] number, boolean[] front, double[] total) { int num = 0; double ffee = 0; /*boolean value = false;*/
[code]...
I have tried using the line of code commented out, /*boolean value = false;*/. However, another error is displayed. The compiler shows the following...
Inspection.java:33: error: incompatible types: boolean cannot be converted to boolean[] front[num]= defineFront(num, value); ^ Note: Some messages have been simplified; recompile with -Xdiags:verbose to get full output error...I know that boolean values are by default stored as false, once you create the array. However, I'm having trouble passing the variable to the method.
I am working on an independent project it is a simple little text based rpg that will run in a counsel window. I have an object for Character that is creating during a CreateCharacter method. I want the play to be able to enter a character that will open up a menu that displays things like the name and health and stuff of the character from the object created in CreateCharacter, but because I have it in a different class I don't know how to reference the object made in CreateCharacter.
I have it in 6 files
Character --- Object with getters/setters for things like name, age, race, class, ect MainMenu --- Displays title and promts for new game and quit CreateCharacter --- Walks through and sets all values in Character Stats --- Keeps the players stats (health, attack, ect) in an array Intro --- Beginning demo thing (not really important for this question) Menu --- Displays all current user stats (Having issues with this one)
I got the correct output here. But now I want to generalize my method into a utility class so that I can reuse the same method for setting response data directly to respective beans as given below:-
My question is how will I pass the bean object in my utility class?
public static Object getResponseData(String response,[b]String bean[/b]) throws Exception { ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper(); mapper.configure(DeserializationConfig.Feature.FAIL_ON_UNKNOWN_PROPERTIES, false); JsonNode root = mapper.readTree(response);
I just kinda get stuck when it comes to passing values into constructors, using main method or static method functionality. In theory i kind of understand how it work but when i type it, it's totally different! I have to have a junit test too but i guess i could do that in the end.
I have attached the assignment. So, how to proceed with this:
public class Flight { int flight_number, capacity, number_of_seats_left; String origin, destination; String departure_time; double original_price;
currently I am doing my java web application project ,and it has following steps 1) Upload the txt files 2) java servlet gets the txt file's url , read the data and do the calculation 3) pass the results
I almost finished the second step , and working on the first step .Since there are so many input files at a given time , i have to use drag and drop method to get the file's location.how to pass file's path to servlet.( servlet code can read the data from the given txt file path )software used - tomcat and netbeans 8.0
The two last methods stumped me. The return type to each is "DateTime", according to JUnit complaints.I know that I can use the "this" keyword to reference to the object. But how do I get these two methods to return the correct result?
