Lesson16
1. Anonymous objects
It is possible to instantiate an object without a
name.
public void melloJello(Circle cirA)
osborne.melloJello(new Circle(5) );
The code, new Circle(5), instantiates the
object; however, in the region of the calling
code it doesn’t have a name.
4. Declaring and instantiating an object
Normally when we instantiate an object, we do
it in one line of code:
Circle cir1 = new Circle(3.0);
However, it can be done in two lines:
Circle cir1; //Here, cir1 is merely declared to
be of type Circle
cir1 = new Circle(3.0); //Here, it is finally
instantiated.
5. Setting two objects equal
Circle cir1 = new Circle(5.3); //cir1 has a radius of 5.3
We will now demonstrate how to declare a cir2 object,
but not to instantiate it.
Then in another line of code, set it equal to cir1:
Circle cir2; //cir2 has only been declared to be of type
Circle cir2 = cir1; //cir2 and cir1 now refer to the same
object. There is only one object. It simply has two
references to it.
Thus, cir2.area( ) returns exactly the same as cir1.area( )
….and cir1.radius is exactly the same as cir2.radius,…
etc.
6. Determining if two objects are equal
System.out.println(cir1 = = cir2);
Circle cir1 = new Circle(11);
Circle cir2 = new Circle(11);
System.out.println(cir1 = = cir2);
//false, in spite of the fact they both have a
radius of 11
7. System.out.println( cir1.equals(cir2) ); //false.
(cir1.equals(cir2) ) is equivalent to (cir1 = = cir2).
Circle class inherits the equals method from a superclass
Object and simply compares to see if we are referring to
the same object.
If the programmer who created the Circle class created an
equals method for it, then that overrides the inherited
method and compares the contents of the two objects
(likely the radii). In this case, the println above would
print a true since the contents of the two objects are the
same (they both have a radius of 11).
8. Strings
String s1 = “Hello”;
String s2 = “Hello”; //s1 and s2 are String
constants
System.out.println(s1 = = s2); // prints true
9. The String constant pool
String literals are stored as String constants in a separate
memory area called theString constant pool.
When object s1 is created “Hello” it is placed in the String
constant pool with the reference s1 pointing to it. Then, for
efficiency, when the reference (variable) s2 is created, Java
checks the pool to see If the String constant being specified
for s2 is already there. Since it is in this case, s2 also points to
“Hello” stored in the String constant pool.
Physically, s1 and s2 are two separate String object
references, but logically they are pointing to the same object
in theString constant pool. So, in (s1 = = s2) from the code
above we see that both s1 and s2 are referencing the same
object, and a true is returned.
10. Exercises for Lesson 16
Problems 1 – 5 refer to the following code (assume
that equals is not an explicit, method of this class):
MoonRock myRock = new MoonRock(3, “Xeon”);
MoonRock yourRock = new MoonRock(2,
“Kryptonite”);
MoonRock ourRock = new MoonRock(3, “Xeon”);
MoonRock theRock;theRock = ourRock;
1. Does theRock.equals(ourRock) return a true or
false?
12. MoonRock myRock = new MoonRock(3, “Xeon”);
MoonRock yourRock = new MoonRock(2, “Kryptonite”);
MoonRock ourRock = new MoonRock(3, “Xeon”);
MoonRock theRock;theRock = ourRock;
2. Does theRock.equals(yourRock) return a true or
false?
3. Does theRock.equals(myRock) return a true or false?
4. Does myRock = = ourRock return a true or false?
5. Does myRock.equals(yourRock) return a true or
false?
14. Problems 6 – 11 refer to the following code:
public class Weenie{public Weenie( )
{ . . . }
public String method1(int jj)
{ . . . }
private void method2(String b)
{ . . . }
public int method3( )
{ . . . }
public double x;
public int y;
private String z;
}
Now suppose from within a different class we instantiate a Weenie
object,oscarMayer. All of the code in questions 6 – 11 is assumed
to be in this otherclass.
6. Is int zz = oscarMayer.method1(4);
legal? If not, why?
15. 6. Is int zz = oscarMayer.method1(4);
legal? If not, why?
No, method1 returns a String and we are
trying to store it in xx, an int.
16. 6. Is int zz = oscarMayer.method1(4);
legal? If not, why?
7. Is oscarMayer.method2(“Hello”);
legal? If not, why?
8. Is int cv = oscarMayer.method3( );
legal? If not, why?
9. Is int cv = oscarMayer.method3(14);
legal? If not, why?
10. Is oscarMayer.z = “hotdog”; legal? If not, why?
11. Assume the following code is inside method1:method2(“BarBQ”);
Is this legal? If not, why?
17. 6. Is int zz = oscarMayer.method1(4);
legal? If not, why?
No, method1 returns a String and we are trying to store it in zz, an
int.Answers
7. Is oscarMayer.method2(“Hello”);
legal? If not, why?
No, method2 is private
8. Is int cv = oscarMayer.method3( );
legal? If not, why? Yes
9. Is int cv = oscarMayer.method3(14);
legal? If not, why?
No, method3 is not expecting to receive a parameter…yet we’resending a
14.
10. Is oscarMayer.z = “hotdog”; legal? If not, why?
No, z is private.
11. Assume the following code is inside method1:method2(“BarBQ”);
Is this legal? If not, why?
Yes, we can access a private method from within its class.
18. 12. Instantiate an object called surferDude from
the Surfer class using two separate lines of
code. One line should declare the object and
the other line should instantiate it. (Assume no
parameters are sent to the constructor.)
19. 12. Instantiate an object called surferDude from
the Surfer class using two separate lines of
code. One line should declare the object and
the other line should instantiate it. (Assume no
parameters are sent to the constructor.)
Surfer surferDude;
surferDude = new Surfer( );
20. 13. Which of the following is correct? (Assume

b. beco.method33( new Circle(10) );
c. Both a and b
