Inheritance-2

Limitation of Inheritance:-we know that inheritance is a facility of re-using the previously developed code, but inheritance has some limitation also, that are given below.

1)    Limitation on variables

 private variables are not available to the child class in any ways that means     private variables cannot inherit .

2)    Limitation on functions or methods

Private Fields of super classes are not available to the child class.
3)    Limitation on class

Final classes cannot inherit into child class.

4)    Limitation on Constructor

Inheritance concept is not applicable for constructors, constructors are not inherited.


Example1:-private variables-1


class Account
{
private int balance=100;
 }
class Test extends Account
{
void getBalance()
{
System.out.println("Your balance is"+balance);
}
public static void main(String[]args)
{
Test t=new Test();
t.getBalance();
}
}

Output:-

C:\JAVATECH>javac Test.java

Test.java:13: error: balance has private access in Account
System.out.println("Your balance is"+balance);
                                     ^
1 error


Private variables cannot inherit in child class, but private variables are used by the methods of that class and method can be inherited into child class.


Example2:- private variables-2


class Account
{
private int balance=100;
 void balance()
{
System.out.println("Your balance is"+balance);
}
}
class Test extends Account
{
public static void main(String[]args)
{
Test t=new Test();
t.balance();
}
}

Output:-

C:\JAVATECH>javac Test.java
 C:\JAVATECH>java Test

Your balance is100


Example3:-private function-1


class Account
{
private void balance()
{
System.out.println("Your balance ");
}
}
class Test extends Account
{
public static void main(String[]args)
{
Test t=new Test();
t.balance();
}
}

Output:-

C:\JAVATECH>javac Test.java

Test.java:15: error: cannot find symbol
t.balance();
 ^
  symbol:   method balance()
  location: variable t of type Test
1 error

Example4:-private function-2


class Account
{
private void balance()
{
System.out.println("Your balance ");
}
void disp()
{
System.out.println("Through disp method");
balance();
}
}
class Test extends Account
{
public static void main(String[]args)
{
Test t=new Test();
t.disp();
}
}

Output:-

C:\JAVATECH>javac Test.java
C:\JAVATECH>java Test

Through disp method
Your balance

Example5:-final class Test.java


final class Account
{
}
class Test extends Account
{
}

Output:-

C:\JAVATECH>javac Test.java

Test.java:5: error: cannot inherit from final Account
class Test extends Account
                   ^

1 error

Inner classes

Inner Classes:- class inside class or interface called inner class or nested class. Advantage of inner classes is grouping multiple classes and interfaces into a single class. Another big advantage of inner class is that inner class can happily access all the data or variables of outer class directly. Types of Nested classes:- There are two types of nested classes static and non-static nested classes. (A)Non –static inner classes:- 1)     Member inner class 2)     Anonymous inner class 3)     Local inner class (B)Static nested class Example1:-Outer.java class Outer { class Inner { void disp() { System.out.println("Hello This is Inner class Method"); } } public static void main(String[]args) { Inner in=new Inner(); in.disp(); } } Output:- C:\JAVATECH>javac Outer.java Outer.java:12: error: non-static variable this cannot be referenced from a static context Inner in=new Inner(); ...

Small concept about OOPs

Some small concept about OOPs:- In many books and website write about OOPs concepts as hundred percent object oriented, pure object oriented and partial object oriented language. Hundred percent object oriented:- In the hundred percent object oriented movie hero is object, without object program is incomplete that means can not execute program without object. Without class and object programming or application development is not possible. Example of hundred percent object oriented language is  Smalltalk . Pure object oriented:- In the object oriented cinema obviously object is the hero. In pure object oriented language object having same importance but in this having some relax that is without creating object we can successfully execute our application. So in the object oriented programming without class we cannot create or run our application, class is must. Example of pure object oriented language is  Java . Partial object oriented:- In this type of la...

Introduction of Java

Java is a high level programming language which is used for creating various types of software's or applications. Types of java applications:- 1)     Stand alone application 2)     Desktop based application          3)     Web based application 4)     Enterprise application etc. Stand alone application:- Stand alone application run on single machine without user interface and every stand alone application having main method. Desktop based application:- Desktop based application also run on single machine with user interface and every Desktop based application having main method. Web based application:- Web based application run on web, web based application not required main method but for such types of application need server. Enterprise application:- Enterprise application is category of web application where doing some business o...
