System defined constructor or Default constructor is the constructor that the JVM would place in every java class irrespective of whether we code it manually or not. This is to ensure that we do not have compile time issues or instantiation issues even if we miss declaring/coding the constructor specifically. Ex: public class Test { public String getName() { return "Rocky"l } Public static void main(String[] args){ Test obj = new Test(); String name = obj.getName(); } } Here we were able to instantiate the class Test even though we did not declare a no argument constructor. This is the default constructor that gets called when we try to instantiate it.

Why Java always provides a default constructor to class when you use another constructor default constructor remove?

Classes in Java inherit constructors from their parent classes. If you don't explicitly define a parent class, then Object is used, which has only the default empty constructor. That "default" constructor is only there when defined by the parent class, so classes which do not have a no-argument constructor will not allow subclasses to automatically use it. This is implemented this way because of the special nature of constructors. Java could not always provide a default constructor because it could not guarantee that all class members would be properly created or initialized.


Can a constructor be defined within a method in java?

No.


Default constructor in java?

If you don't type a constructor into your class code, a default constructor will be automatically generated by the compiler. The default constructor is ALWAYS a no-arg constructor. (Obviously the compiler has no clue what all arguments you might want for your class. So it takes the safe way out with a no argument constructor) A no-arg constructor is not necessarily the default (i.e., compiler-supplied) constructor, although the default constructor is always a no-arg constructor. The default constructor is the one the compiler provides! While the default constructor is always a no-arg constructor, you're free to put in your own no-arg constructor.


What is a constructor and its mandatory to use constructor in a class?

A constructor is a method that is invoked when an object is created. As to being mandatory, that really depends on the programming language; in the case of Java, each class must have a constructor, however, in many cases Java will automatically provide a default constructor, so you don't really need to program it.


How do you get a default constructor?

The default constructor is an empty (only call the super constructor) with no parameters constructor inserted by the java compiler when you don't define a constructor in your class. If you write something like this: public class NoConstructorClass{ //no constructor goes here } Then you get something like this: public class NoConstructorClass{ public NoConstructorClass(){ // Default constructor that you didn't write super(); } }

What happens when no constructor function is declared in a class - in Java?

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( ) ").

Is there a sample program for constructor?

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.

Using default constructor in inheritance and in what reason it throws error?

The compiler places a default no-arg constructor in any java class that does not have an explicit constructor coded into it. for ex: public class Car { ... ... //lots of code but no constructor } In the above case, the compiler will place the below constructor into the code: public Car() { super(); } But, if you have a constructor in your class that takes arguments then the compiler will not put the default constructor. Ex: public class Car { public Car(String name){ ... } ... //lots of code } Above, we have a Car constructor that takes a string name as argument. so, the compiler wont put the default constructor in the code. now, if you try to do: Car obj = new Car(); you will get an error because this constructor is not defined.


What is the difference between implicit and explicit Java programming?

Explicit means done by the programmer. Implicit means done by the JVM or the tool , not the Programmer. For Example: Java will provide us default constructor implicitly.Even if the programmer didn't write code for constructor, he can call default constructor. Explicit is opposite to this , ie. programmer has to write .


Is constructor created automatically in java?

There is a default constriuctor that takes no argument for every class that extends Object.


Is Java always provides a default constructor to a class?

Correct. If you omit a constructor, Java will assume that an empty one exists. Given the following code for a class: class MyClass { } You can make a call to the default constructor: MyClass mc = new MyClass(); Just keep in mind that the default constructor "goes away" if you implement another constructor. class MyClass { public MyClass(String str){ } } This line will now result in a "cannot find symbol" compiler error: MyClass mc = new MyClass();
