Inheritance

3 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Inheritance
‒ Define new classes ‘on top of’ existing classes to expand them and/or modify behavior

‒ Reuse of existing code + adding new functionalities (methods) + changing behavior (methods)

‒ Derived class is derived from base class

‒ Derived class inherits all members of the base class

4 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Example of inheritance
‒ Employee inherits from Person
(Employee 'is a' Person)

‒ Manager inherits from Employee


(Manager 'is an' Employee,
and therefore, also a Person)

5 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Example of inheritance
‒ Employee inherits from Person
(Employee 'is a' Person)

‒ Manager inherits from Employee


(Manager 'is an' Employee,
and therefore, also a Person)

6 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Inheritance
‒ Employee is a derived class from the base class Person

‒ Manager is a derived class from the base class Employee

7 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Demo Code
‒ Person/Employee Inheritance
‒ In demo code repo on GitHub: employee_inheritance project

8 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Class Exercise
‒ Create a Vehicle class with fields for fuel capacity
and top speed
‒ Create a Truck class that inherits from Vehicle and
adds a field for cargo capacity
‒ You can use the example to the right as a
reference

9 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Solution Demo Code
‒ Vehicle/Truck Inheritance
‒ In demo code repo on GitHub: vehicle_inheritance project

10 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


calling base constructor

11 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Constructors
‒ You can call a constructor of the base class explicitly from a constructor of the derived class, in
order to forward (pass) data

‒ We need to use ' : base(…) '

12 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Constructors
‒ Initializing fields of the
base class (first name, …)
is done by the constructor of
the base class (Person)

‒ Initializing fields of the


derived class (department, …)
is done by the constructor of
the derived class (Employee)

13 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Constructors
‒ Initializing fields of the
base class (first name, …)
is done by the constructor of
the base class (Person)

‒ Initializing fields of the


derived class (department, …)
is done by the constructor of
the derived class (Employee)

14 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Demo Code
‒ Use of constructor in derived class
‒ In demo code repo on GitHub: employee_inheritance_constructors project

15 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Class exercise
‒ Update the Vehicle and Truck
classes to use constructors
‒ Use the code on the right as
an example
‒ Bonus: Change the fields
accessibility from public to
protected

16 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Solution Demo Code
‒ Vehicle/Truck Constructors
‒ In demo code repo on GitHub: vehicle_inheritance_constructors project

17 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Adding functionalities

18 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Adding methods
‒ We can add extra functionality/behavior to derived classes
(the derived class has all functionalities of the base class, and complemented with more)

19 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Adding methods

20 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Adding methods
‒ Both manager and
employee have an
‘IncreaseSalary’ method,
but only the manager can
fire an employee

21 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Changing behaviour
(virtual / override)

22 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Changing behavior
‒ A derived class can 'overwrite' a method of the base class. This means that a derived class can
implement an existing functionality differently (change behavior)

‒ We need to use keywords 'virtual' and 'override'

23 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Changing behavior

24 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Changing behavior

‒ A manager receives a
salary increase of 1,500 euros,
not 1,000 euros...

25 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Demo Code
‒ Use of virtual/override for method inheritance
‒ In demo code repo on GitHub: employee_inheritance_constructors project
→Employee class
→Manager class

26 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


abstract

27 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Abstract classes
‒ Abstract classes are always the base for other classes
(base classes can not be instantiated: no objects can be made)

‒ Abstract classes contain partial implementation


(data and/or methods)

‒ Abstract classes can have one or more methods without body; derived classes must implement
these (abstract) methods

28 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Abstract classes
‒ Class ‘LibraryItem’ is abstract; no
objects can be made from it

‒ This abstract class contains a few


properties and methods; derived
classes won’t have to implement
them (they ‘inherit’ these members)

29 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Abstract classes
‒ ‘new LibraryItem (…)’ will give a
compile-error

30 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Abstract classes
‒ Deriving is done the same way as
with ‘normal’ (non-abstract) classes:
Book : LibraryItem

‒ In the constructor we immediately


pass (base) information to the base
class with: base (...)

31 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Abstract methods
‒ Class ‘Figure’ is abstract; no objects can be
created with: new Figure(...)

‒ A derived class must implement method


‘Draw’, since this method is abstract

‒ If an abstract method is not implemented, then a


compile-error occurs:
‘<class-name> does not implement inherited
abstract member <method-name>’

32 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Abstract methods
‒ Class ‘Square’ derives from abstract class
‘Figure’

‒ Class ‘Square’ implements abstract method


‘Draw’. Keyword ‘override’ is needed here

33 Programmeren 2 - week 2 (24/25)


Demo Code
‒ Abstract class
‒ In demo code repo on GitHub: abstract_shape
