Defining Classes and

Methods

5.1 Class and Method Definitions

5.2 Information Hiding and Encapsulation

5.3 Objects and References

5.4 Graphics Supplement

5.1Class and Method

Definitions

Class Name

Instance Variables

Methods

Java is Object Oriented

It can model any real world object

A class is a blueprint of what an object will look like

The object is just an instance of the class

Object Oriented Programming deals with the creation of objects

and their relationships and interactions

Start by defining the class

- bodyPaintColor: Color- numberOfTires: int

+ getBodyPaintColor(): Color+ setBodyPaintColor(Color color): void+ getNumberOfTires(): int+ setNumberOfTires(int tireCount): void

Use a UML class diagram

instancevariables

instancemethods

Code the class definition

public class Car {

private Color bodyPaintColor; private int numberOfTires; public Color getPaintColor() { return bodyPaintColor; } // end getPaintColor()

public void setPaintColor(Color color) { bodyPaintColor = color; } // end setPaintColor()

public int getNumberOfTires() { return numberOfTires; } // end getNumberOfTires()

public void setNumberOfTires(int tireCount) { numberOfTires = tireCount; } // end setNumberOfTires()} // end Car

instancevariables

instancemethods

An Object consists of data ...

bodyPaintColor Color.GreennumberOfTires 4greenCar

object's memoryfootprint

and operations that store and manage the data

bodyPaintColor Color.GreennumberOfTires 4

greenCar

bodyPaintColor Color.Red

numberOfTires 4

redCar

Class Car methods

methods are shared by all car objects

Each class should be in a separate file

public class Car { // code omitted} // end Car

Car.java

public class Driver { // code omitted} // end Driver

Driver.java

new Creates an instanceof a class

Car myCar = new Car();

An object is an instance of class

Use new to create an object

Objects have data (instance variables)

Objects offer functionality (methods)

There are two types of methods

Methods that do not return a value (void)

System.out.println("println does not return");

and methods that do return a value

int num = keyboard.nextInt();

Let's see how methods work

Car myCar = new Car();

First create the object

bodyPaintColor null

numberOfTires 0myCar Defaultvalues

You can then call a method to setan instance variable

myCar.setNumberOfTires(4);

bodyPaintColor null

numberOfTires 4myCar

Receiving Object

or a get method to retrieve an instance variable

int tireCount = myCar.getNumberOfTires()

bodyPaintColor null

numberOfTires 4myCar

this Demystified

public int getNumberOfTires() { return this.numberOfTires;} // end getNumberOfTires()

public void setNumberOfTires(int tireCount) { this.numberOfTires = tireCount;} // end setNumberOfTires()

Since each method is shared by all the objects, we need to be able to identify the receiving object.

this refers to the receiving object, implicitly.

void Method Definition

public void setNumberOfTires(int tireCount) {

numberOfTires = tireCount;

} // end setNumberOfTires()

Method is accessible by defining class and any other

Parameter list can be empty or list parameters

needed

Instance Variable

return Method Definition

public int getNumberOfTires() {

return numberOfTires;

} // end getNumberOfTires()

return type of int Parameter list can be empty or list

parameters needed

Instance Variable

Methods expose a class's functionality

Call a method on a receiving object

this identifies the receiving object inside the method's definition

Each class is stored in its own .java file

Local variables are defined within a method

public double updateSumAmount(double amount) {

double newSumAmount += amount;

return newSumAmount;

} // end updateSumAmount()

local variable

Methods can definesame name local variables

public void method1() { double someDouble = 0;

// Code omitted

} // end method1()

public void method2() { double someDouble = 0;

// Code omitted

} // end method2()

local to method1

local to method2

5.2Information Hiding and

Encapsulation

A method should hide how it is implemented

I know what the method

does,just not how!

Know "what" a method does, not "how" it does it

Methods can be public

These define the class's interface

or private

These are part of the implementation

Instance Variables are private

They define the implementation

Accessor methods controlaccess to instance variables

Getters retrieve instance variables

Setters set instance variables

Local variables are defined within a method

Know "what" a method does, not "how" it does it

Public methods define the class's interface

Private instance variables/methods are part of the implementation

Class Deconstructed<Fraction>

Fraction

- numerator: int- denominator: int- reduce(): void

+ getNumerator(): int+ setNumerator(int n): void+ getDenominator(): int+ setDenominator(int d): void+ setNumeratorAndDenominator(int n, int d): void+ add(Fraction f): Fraction+ subtract(Fraction f): Fraction+ multiply(Fraction f): Fraction+ divide(Fraction f): Fraction+ show(): void

Application Deconstructed<Fraction.java>

package fractiondemo;

public class Fraction { private int numerator; private int denominator;

private void reduce() { int u = numerator; int v = denominator; int temp; while (v != 0) { temp = u % v; u = v; v = temp; }// end while numerator /= u; denominator /= u; }// end reduce()

public int getNumerator() { return numerator; }// end getNumerator()

public void setNumerator(int n) { setNumeratorAndDenominator(n, denominator); }// end setNumerator()

public int getDenominator() { return denominator; }// end getDenominator()

public void setDenominator(int d) { setNumeratorAndDenominator(numerator, d); }// end setDenominator()

public void setNumeratorAndDenominator(int n, int d) { numerator = n; if (d == 0) { System.err.println("ERROR: Invalid parameter (" + d + ") in setNumeratorAndDenonimator"); System.exit(1); } else { denominator = d; }// end if }// end setNumeratorAndDenominator() public Fraction add(Fraction f) { Fraction sum = new Fraction(); sum.setNumeratorAndDenominator(numerator * f.denominator + denominator * f.numerator, denominator * f.denominator); sum.reduce(); return sum; }// end add()

public Fraction subtract(Fraction f) { Fraction difference = new Fraction(); difference.setNumeratorAndDenominator( numerator * f.denominator - denominator * f.numerator, denominator * f.denominator); difference.reduce(); return difference; }// end subtract()

public Fraction multiply(Fraction f) { Fraction product = new Fraction(); product.setNumeratorAndDenominator( numerator * f.numerator, denominator * f.denominator); product.reduce(); return product; }// end multiply()

public Fraction divide(Fraction f) { Fraction division = new Fraction(); division.setNumeratorAndDenominator( numerator * f.denominator, denominator * f.numerator); division.reduce(); return division; }// end divide() public void show() { System.out.print("(" + numerator + " / " + denominator + ")"); }// end show()}// end Fraction()

Application Deconstructed<FractionDemo.java>

package fractiondemo;

public class FractionDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { Fraction f1 = new Fraction(); Fraction f2 = new Fraction(); Fraction result = new Fraction(); // Set f1 to 1 / 4. f1.setNumeratorAndDenominator(1, 4); // Set f2 to 1 / 2. f2.setNumeratorAndDenominator(1, 2);

// Output their sum, difference, product and division. result = f1.add(f2); f1.show(); System.out.print(" + "); f2.show(); System.out.print(" = "); result.show(); System.out.println(); result = f1.subtract(f2); f1.show(); System.out.print(" - "); f2.show(); System.out.print(" = "); result.show(); System.out.println();

result = f1.multiply(f2); f1.show(); System.out.print(" * "); f2.show(); System.out.print(" = "); result.show(); System.out.println(); result = f1.divide(f2); f1.show(); System.out.print(" / "); f2.show(); System.out.print(" = "); result.show(); System.out.println(); }// end main()}// end FractionDemo

5.3Objects and References

There are two types of variables

Value: Stores the actual value

Reference: Stores a reference to the actual value

Value types store values

int x = 100; 100x

Reference types store references

Fraction f = new Fraction();

f numerator ?

denominator ?

Lets compare value types

int x = 100; x 100

int y = 200; y 200

x == y ? false

x = y; x 200

x == y ? true

Now lets compare reference types

f1 == f2 ? false

f1 == f2 ? true

Fraction f1 = new Fraction();f1.setNumeratorAndDenominator(1,2);

f1 200numerator 1denominator 2

f1 = f2;f1 208

The solution to the == problem?

Define an equals method

Code Deconstructed<equals method>

public boolean equals(Fraction f) {

return this.numerator == f.numerator && this.denominator == f.denominator;

}// end equals()

Two fractions are equal if both their numerator and denominator values are the same.

Code Deconstructed<equals method>

Fraction f1 = new Fraction();f1.setNumeratorAndDenominator(1, 2);

Fraction f2 = new Fraction();f2.setNumeratorAndDenominator(1, 2);

if (f1 == f2) System.out.println("Both variables refer to the same object");else System.out.println("Each variable refers to a different object"); if ( f1.equals(f2) ) System.out.println("Both objects have the same value");else System.out.println("Each object has a different value");

Code Deconstructed<Object variables as parameters>

if (f1.equals(f2) {...}...public boolean equals(Fraction f) {...}

Both the argument (f2) and theparameter (f) point to the sameobject.

Notice how the parameter (f) refers to the same object as the argument (f2) and thus object can be changed from within the method.

Code Deconstructed<Object variables as parameters>

resetFraction(f1);...

public void resetFraction(Fraction f)

Notice here how the object variable (f) has been assigned a new object, and that f1 stills refers to its original object.

{ f = new Fraction(); f.setNumeratorAndDenominator(1, 1);}

f 208numerator 1denominator 1

Graphics class Revisited

The Graphics object defines the client area of the applet window.

Applet Deconstructed<SmileyFaceMethods.java>

package smileyfacemethods;

import javax.swing.JApplet;import java.awt.Color;import java.awt.Graphics;

public class SmileyFaceMethods extends JApplet { // All the geometric constants remain the same // ...

@Overridepublic void paint(Graphics canvas) { // Draw a yellow filled face. drawFace(canvas, X_FACE, Y_FACE, FACE_DIAMETER, FACE_DIAMETER, Color.YELLOW); // Draw outline in black. drawOutline(canvas, X_FACE, Y_FACE, FACE_DIAMETER, FACE_DIAMETER, Color.BLACK);

// Draw a blue left eye. drawEye(canvas, X_LEFT_EYE, Y_LEFT_EYE, EYE_WIDTH, EYE_HEIGHT, Color.BLUE);

// Draw a blue right eye. drawEye(canvas, X_RIGHT_EYE, Y_RIGHT_EYE, EYE_WIDTH, EYE_HEIGHT, Color.BLUE);

// Draw the black nose. drawNose(canvas, X_NOSE, Y_NOSE, NOSE_DIAMETER, NOSE_DIAMETER, Color.BLACK);

// Draw the red mouth. drawMouth(canvas, X_MOUTH, Y_MOUTH, MOUTH_WIDTH, MOUTH_HEIGHT, MOUTH_START_ANGLE, MOUTH_EXTENT_ANGLE, Color.RED); }// end paint()

private void drawFace(Graphics g, int x, int y, int width, int height, Color color) { g.setColor(color); g.fillOval(x, y, width, height);}// end drawFace()

private void drawOutline(Graphics g, int x, int y, int width, int height, Color color) { g.setColor(color); g.drawOval(x, y, width, height);}// end drawFace()

private void drawEye(Graphics g, int x, int y, int width, int height, Color color) { g.setColor(color); g.fillOval(x, y, width, height);}// end drawEye()

private void drawNose(Graphics g, int x, int y, int width, int height, Color color) { g.setColor(color); g.fillOval(x, y, width, height);}// end drawNose()

private void drawMouth(Graphics g, int x, int y, int width, int height, int start, int swipe, Color color) { g.setColor(color); g.drawArc(x, y, width, height, start, swipe); }// end drawNose()}// end SmileyFaceMethods

Applet Deconstructed< SmileyFaceMethods.java >

init() Vs. paint()

Both have a place in Applets

An applet could have both an init() and paint() or neither (unusual)

Both get called automatically

Paint() repaints controls as needed

Init() initialization before applet starts

Code Deconstructed<Label>

import javax.swing.JLabel;

JLabel firstNameLabel = new JLabel("First name: ");JLabel lastNameLabel = new JLabel("Last name: ");

A label is a control for displaying static text in an applet or frame.

Create and add the label in the init() method

Code Deconstructed<Container>

import java.awt.Container;

Container contentPane = getContentPane();

A Container is a control that can contain other controls

The applet's ContentPane is one such container

Code Deconstructed<FlowLayout>

import java.awt.FlowLayout;

contentPane.setLayout( new FlowLayout() );contentPane.add(firstNameLabel);contentPane.add(lastNameLabel);

A FlowLayout control helps in laying out the controls in a container

Each container can be associated with a FlowLayout.

Application Deconstructed<LabelsDemo.java>

package labelsdemo;import javax.swing.JLabel;import javax.swing.JFrame;import java.awt.Container;import java.awt.FlowLayout;

public class LabelsDemo {

public static void main(String[] args) { JFrame frame = new JFrame();

JLabel salutationLabel = new JLabel("Hello there,"); JLabel nameLabel = new JLabel("Mr. Magoo!");

Container contentPane = frame.getContentPane();

contentPane.setLayout( new FlowLayout() ); contentPane.add(salutationLabel); contentPane.add(nameLabel); frame.setSize(200, 100); frame.setVisible(true); }}

Application Deconstructed<LabelsAppletDemo.java>

package labelsappletdemo;

import javax.swing.JLabel;import javax.swing.JApplet;import java.awt.Container;import java.awt.FlowLayout;import java.awt.Graphics;

public class LabelsAppletDemo extends JApplet {

private void drawString(Graphics g, String string, int x, int y) { g.drawString(string, x, y); }// end drawString()

@Override public void init() { JLabel salutationLabel = new JLabel("Hello there,"); JLabel nameLabel = new JLabel("Mr Magoo!"); Container contentPane = getContentPane(); contentPane.setLayout( new FlowLayout() ); contentPane.add(salutationLabel); contentPane.add(nameLabel); }// end init()

The init() method executes once before applet starts. It displays the two labels, but they do not remain

visible for long.

@Override public void paint(Graphics g) { drawString(g, "Hello to you too!", 50, 100); }// end paint()}// end LabelsAppletDemo

The paint() method is then executed and repaints the applet's content pane

and draws the string.

Notice how the labels never have a chance!
