Topics Covered Today

• 2.1 Implementing Classes – 2.1.3 Method equals and Method toString – 1.2.6  Implementing Classes the Library System

3

The Object Class

• Java defines the class java.lang.Object that is defined as a superclass for all classes.

• If a class doesn’t specify explicitly which class it is derived from, then it will be implicitly derived from class Object.

• So, in the previous example, Employee was derived from Person which in turn was derived from Object.

Method toString in Object Class

• The Object class defines a set of methods that are inherited by all classes.

• One of these is the toString() method that is used whenever we want to get a String representation of an object.

• The version of toString method defined in class Object returns a String with the following format: ClassName@number

• When you define a new class, you can override the toString() method in order to have a suitable representation of the new type of objects as Strings.

6

Point

public class Point { private int x,y;

public Point(int initialX, int initialY) {x = initialX;y = initialY;

}public int getX() { return x; }public int getY() { return y; }

public String toString() {return "(" + getX() + "," + getY() + ")";

} }

7

Method toString

Point pointOne = new Point(10, 100);

Point pointTwo = new Point(-20, 200);

Point pointThree = new Point(50, -500);

System.out.println(pointOne);

System.out.println(pointTwo);

System.out.println(pointThree);

System.out.println();

Output ：(10,100)

(-20,200)

(50,-500)

8

Method equals

• In JAVA, all classes inherit the equals() method of Object class.

• This default implementation is exactly the same as obj1 == obj2 (compare pointers)

• boolean equals(Object obj)

9

Compare Point objectsPoint pointOne = new Point(10, 100);

Point pointTwo = new Point(10, 100);

Point pointThree = pointOne;

if (pointOne.equals(pointTwo)) {

System.out.println("pointOne and pointTwo are equal");

} else {

System.out.println("pointOne and pointTwo are different");

}

if (pointOne.equals(pointThree)) {

System.out.println("pointOne and pointThree are equal");

} else {

System.out.println("pointOne and pointThree are different");}

10

Compare Point objects

pointOne pointTwo pointThree(null) (null)

Point pointOne = new Point(10, 100);Point pointTwo = new Point(10, 100);

Point pointThree = pointOne;

11

Compare Point objects

pointOnepointThree(null)

Point pointOne = new Point(10, 100);Point pointTwo = new Point(10, 100);

Point pointThree = pointOne;

pointTwo

12

Compare Point objects

pointOnepointThree

Point pointOne = new Point(10, 100);Point pointTwo = new Point(10, 100);

Point pointThree = pointOne;

pointTwo

13

Compare Point objects

Point pointOne = new Point(10, 100);Point pointTwo = new Point(10, 100);

Point pointThree = pointOne;

pointOne

pointThree X=10Y=100

pointTwo

X=10Y=100

14

Override method equals

public boolean equals(Object object) {

if (object instanceof Point) {

Point point = (Point) object;

return point.getX() == getX() &&

point.getY() == getY();

} else {

return false;

} }

• 在大部分类中继承自 Object 类的 equals() 方法都不太适用，因此每个类都需要重写该方法；

• 该方法比较两个对象，只有当两个对象的状态都一样时，返回 true ；

15

Override method equals

Point pointOne = new Point(10, 100);

Point pointTwo = new Point(10, 100);

Point pointThree = new Point(50, 500);

if (pointOne.equals(pointTwo)) {

System.out.println("pointOne and pointTwo are equal");

} else {

System.out.println("pointOne and pointTwo are different");

}

if (pointOne.equals(pointThree)) {

System.out.println("pointOne and pointThree are equal");

} else {

System.out.println("pointOne and pointThree are different");

}

overload和override的区别

16

override （重写） 1 、方法名、参数、返回值相同。2 、子类方法不能缩小父类方法的访问权限。3 、子类方法不能抛出比父类方法更多的异常 ( 但子类方法可以不抛出异常 ) 。4 、存在于父类和子类之间。5 、方法被定义为 final 不能被重写。

overload （重载）1 、参数类型、个数、顺序至少有一个不相同。 2 、不能重载只有返回值不同的方法名。3 、存在于父类和子类、同类中。
