What is Constructor
• Constructor in java is a special type of method that is used to
initialize the object.
• Java Constructor is invoked at the time of object creation.
• It can be used to set initial values for object attributes.
Rules for creating java Constructor
• Constructor name must be same as its
class name.
• Constructor must have no explicit return
type.
• Constructors can be overloaded.
• Constructor cannot be static.
Types of Constructor
•Default Constructor
•Parameterized Constructor
Default Constructor
• A Constructor that have no parameter is known as default Constructor
• Syntax of default Constructor:
<class_name>{}
Example on Default Constructor
Class A
{
A()
{
System.out.println(“This is a default Constructor”);
}
Void display()
{
System.out.println(“this is a method”);
}
Class default_Cons
{
Public static void main(String args[])
{
A obj=new A();
Obj.display();
}
}
Parameterized Constructor
• A Constructor that have parameters is known as Parameterized
Constructor.
• Parameterized Constructor is used to provide different values to the
distinct objects.
• Syntax:
Class class name
{
Class name(par_list)
{
…….
…….
}
}
Program on Parameterized Constructor
Class employee1
{
string name
int id;
Employee1(string name, int id);
{
this.name=name;
this.id=id;
}
Void display()
{
System.out.println(“employee name is: name”+”employee id
is:”+id);
}
}
Class employee1
{
Public static void main(String args[])
{
employee e1=new employee1(“karan”,1000);
employee e2=new employee2(“Aryan”,1002);
}
}
Constructor Overloading
• A class has multiple Constructors having
the same name but different in
parameters.
• When an object is created, a Constructor
is invoked based on the number and
types of arguments passed.
Program on Constructor Overloading
Public class person
{
String name;
int age;
Public person(String name)
{
this.name=name;
}
Public person(string name, int age)
{
this(name);
this.age=age;
}
Public void displaydetails()
{
System.out.println(“name:”+ name);
System.out.println(“age:”+ age);
}
Public static void main(String args[])
{
Person person1=new person(“karan”,28);
Person person2=new person(“Aryan”,30);
Person1.displaydetails();
Person2.displaydetails();
}
