1. The constructor has to have the same name as the classthat it is in.
2. It does not have a return type. If it has a return type, then it is a method (even though it is legal, it's not ideal to have name a method the same name as the class).
3. It can use any access modifier (this includes private).
4. The default constructor does not take arguments.
5. The first statement in a constructor has to have a super() type or this() type. If this is not written, by default, it's super(). It's illegal to have it in any other line other than the first line.
6. Constructors can only access static variables.
7. Only constructors have access to another constructor.
Remember that interfaces do not have a constructor.
No. Java does not support copy constructor
No. if you wish to create an object that you plan on using in a java program then the answer is NO. You cannot initialize an object of a Java class without calling the constructor.
No.
Constructor is a special block of code similar to the method that is used to initialize the state of objects. If you do not define a constructor in a class, Java compiler automatically put a default constructor in the class.
Java has 2 types of constructors based on parameters passed:Default or parameter-less constructor: A constructor which does not accept any arguments.Parametrized constructor: A constructor which accepts one or more arguments.Similarly based on Access modifier also we have:Public constructor - Class can be instantiated by anyonePrivate constructor - Class cannot be instantiated by anyoneProtected constructor - Class can be instantiated only by sub classes
No. Java does not support copy constructor
Yes you can but it is not required. A Servlet is nothing but another .java file and all rules that are applicable to standard Java classes are applicable to them. Note: Even if you write a constructor in a servlet, it will not get executed.
When any constructor is deffined in your class, the java compiler create a default no argument constructor for you. This constructor only have an invocation to the super class constructor (" super( ) ").
All Java programs would have a constructor... public class Test { public Test(){ ... } ..... } This is a constructor. Even if you dont code the constructor Java would automatically place a default constructor for compilation.
Constructor is used to do something (written in constructor) immediately after object creation.
No. if you wish to create an object that you plan on using in a java program then the answer is NO. You cannot initialize an object of a Java class without calling the constructor.
No.
Java, unlike C++ does not support copy constructors.
NO, we cannot create a contructor for an interface in java.
Constructor is not an alternative to class. In Java, you create classes; the classes contain methods - including the constructor, which can be viewed as a special method. If you want to have a constructor, you need a class that surrounds it, so it's not one or the other.
