Introduction To Sun Microsystems Java: High Level OOPL Platform Independent Case Sensitive

Java is a high-level, platform-independent object-oriented programming language. Key features include being platform independent through use of the Java Virtual Machine (JVM), object-oriented design with classes and inheritance, and automatic memory management via garbage collection. Java programs are compiled to bytecode that can run on any system with a JVM, allowing programs to be written once and run anywhere. Common uses of Java include web applications and server-side programming.

Can you make coffee with it?

It was meant to!!


A programming language for appliances!

Doesnt Make Coffee Yet

So Whats Java Good For?


Web applications!

Java Applet
Java Applet

Server

Java on the Web: Java Applets

Clients download applets via Web browser


Browser runs applet in a Java Virtual Machine
(JVM)
Applet

Client

Server

Interactive web, security, and client consistency


Slow to download, inconsistent VMs (besides,
flash won this war)

Java on the Web: J2EE

Thin clients (minimize download)


Java all server side
JSPs
Servlets

Client

Server
EJB

THIS IS WHAT YOULL BE DOING!!

JDBC

The Java programming environment

Compared to C++:

no header files, pointers, etc.

Object-orientation: Classes + Inheritance

Distributed: RMI, Servlet, Distributed object


programming.
Robust: Strong typing + garbage collection
Architecture neutral: architecture neutral
representation
Portable

Java Features

Well defined primitive data types: int, float,


double, char, etc.

int 4 bytes [2,147,648, 2,147,483,647]

Control statements similar to C++: if-thenelse, switch, while, for

Interfaces

Packages

Exceptions

Multi-Threading

The Java programming environment

Java programming language specification

Syntax of Java programs

Java byte code: Intermediate representation


for Java programs
Java compiler: Program that Transform Java
programs into Java byte code
Java virtual machine: The whole technology is
based on the concept of JVM. Translator of
byte code into platform specific machine
language. It is the Runtime system that
provides various services to running programs
(Logical representation of JRE)

JVM

12

JVM

JVM stands for Java Virtual Machine. Its an abstract


computer or virtual computer which runs the compiled
java
programs.
Actually
JVM
is
a
software
implementation which stands on the top of the real
hardware platform and operating system. It provides
abstraction between the compiled java program and the
hardware and operating system.
JIT: This Compiler converts byte code to native code.
Old Interpreter was replaced with JIT to increase the
performance of java applications.
When JVM compiles the class file it does not compile
the full class file in one shot. Compilation is done on
function basis or file basis. Depending on need basis the
compilation is done. This type of compilation is termed
as JIT or Just-in- Time compilation.

How are Java programs written?

Define a class HelloWorld and store it into a


file: HelloWorld.java:
public class HelloWorld {
public static void main (String[] args) {
System.out.println(Hello, World);
}
}

Compile HelloWorld.java
javac HelloWorld.java

Output: HelloWorld.class

Run
java HelloWorld

Output: Hello, World

14

How are variables declared?


Fibonacci:
class Fibonacci {
public static void main(String[] arg) {
int lo = 1;
int hi = 1;
System.out.println(lo);
while (hi < 50) {
System.out.println(hi);
hi = hi + lo;
lo = hi lo;
}
}
}

15

How to define expressions?

Arithmetic: +, -, *,/, %, =
8 + 3 * 2 /4
Use standard precedence and associativity rules

Predicates: ==, !=, >, <, >=, <=


public class Demo {
public static void main (String[] argv) {
boolean b;
b = (2 + 2 == 4);
System.out.println(b);

16

How are simple methods defined?


Every method is defined inside a Java class definition
public class Movie {
public static int movieRating(int s, int a, int d) {
return s+a+d;

}
public class Demo {
public static void main (String argv[]) {
int script = 6, acting = 9, directing = 8;
displayRating(script, acting, directing);

}
public static void displayRating(int s, int a, int d){
System.out.print(The rating of this movie is);
System.out.println(Movie.movieRating(s, a, d));

17

How to extend classes?

Inheritance: mechanism for extending behavior


of classes; leads to construction of hierarchy of
classes [Note: no multiple inheritance]
What happens when class C extends class D:

Inherits
Inherits
Inherits
Inherits
C can:

instance variables
static variables
instance methods
static methods

Add new instance variables


Add new methods (static and dynamic)
Modify methods (only implementation)
Cannot delete anything

How to extend classes?


public class Attraction {
public int minutes;
public Attraction() {minutes = 75;}
public int getMinutes() {return minutes;}
public void setMinutes(int d) {minutes = d;}
}
public class Movie extends Attraction {
public int script, acting, directing;
public Movie() {script = 5; acting = 5; directing = 5;}
public Movie(int s, int a, int d) {
script = s; acting = a; directing = d;
}
public int rating() {return script + acting + directing;}
}
public class Symphony extends Attraction {
public int playing, music, conducting;
public Symphony() {playing = music = conducting = 5;}
public Symphony(int p, int m, int c) {
playing = p; music = m; conducting = c;
}
public int rating() {return playing + music + conducting;}
}

19

What are abstract classes?

Abstract class: Merely a place holder for class


definitions; cannot be used to create
public abstract class Attraction {
instances.;
public
public
public
public
public

int minutes;
Attraction() {minutes = 75;}
int getMinutes() {return minutes;}
void setMinutes(int d) {minutes = d;}
abstract void m();

Following is an error:

Attraction x;
x = new Attraction();

Following is not an error:


public class Movie extends Attraction { }
public class Symphony extends Attraction { }
Attraction x;
x = new Movie ();
x = new Symphony();

How do we organize above classes into a single unit? Put them in


file?
However, only one public class per file (whose name is same as
files)
Solution: Place several files (compilation units) into a package
