Java Class: Rules For Creating Java Constructor

In Java, a constructor is a special method called when an instance of a class is created, initializing the object's instance variables and allocating memory. There are two types of constructors: no-arg (default) and parameterized, with specific rules governing their creation, such as matching the class name and having no explicit return type. If no constructor is defined, the Java compiler automatically provides a default constructor.

In 

Java, a constructor is a block of codes similar to the


method. It is called when an instance of the class is
created. At the time of calling constructor, memory for
the object is allocated in the memory.

It is a special type of method which is used to initialize


the object instance var.

Every time an object is created using the new() keyword,


at least one constructor is called.

It calls a default constructor if there is no constructor


available in the class. In such case, Java compiler
provides a default constructor by default.

There are two types of constructors in Java: no-arg


constructor, and parameterized constructor.

Note: It is called constructor because it constructs the


values at the time of object creation. It is not necessary
to write a constructor for a class. It is because java
compiler creates a default constructor if your class
doesn't have any.

Rules for creating Java constructor

There are two rules defined for the constructor.

1. Constructor name must be the same as its class


name
2. A Constructor must have no explicit return type
3. A Java constructor cannot be abstract, static, final,
and synchronized
Note: We can use access modifiers while declaring a constructor.
It controls the object creation. In other words, we can have
private, protected, public or default constructor in Java.

Types of Java constructors

There are two types of constructors in Java:

1. Default constructor (no-arg constructor)


2. Parameterized constructor
