COREJAVA

1. Are JVM's platform independent?
JVM's are not platform independent. JVM's are platform specific run time implementation provided by the vendor.
2. What is the difference between a JDK and a JVM?
JDK is Java Development Kit which is for development purpose and it includes execution environment also. But JVM is purely a run time environment and hence you will not be able to compile your source files using a JVM.
3. What is difference between Path and Classpath?
Path and Classpath are operating system level environment variales. Path is used define where the system can find the executables(.exe) files and classpath is used to specify the location .class files.
4. Why is the main() method declared static?
main() method is called by the JVM even before the instantiation of the class hence it is declared as static.
5. Can a main() method be declared final?
Yes. Any inheriting class will not be able to have it's own default main() method.
6. Can a class be declared as protected?
A class can't be declared as protected. only methods can be declared as protected.
7. What is the purpose of declaring a variable as final?
A final variable's value can't be changed. final variables should be initialized before using them.
8. I don't want my class to be inherited by any other class. What should i do?
You should declared your class as final. But you can't define your class as final, if it is an abstract class. A class declared as final can't be extended by any other class.
9. How is final different from finally and finalize()?
final is a modifier which can be applied to a class or a method or a variable. final class can't be inherited,final method can't be overridden and final variable can't be changed.

finally is an exception handling code section which gets executed whether an exception is raised or not by the try block code segment.

finalize() is a method of Object class which will be executed by the JVM just before garbage collecting object to give a final chance for resource releasing activity.
10. Can a class be declared as static?
We can not declare top level class as static, but only inner class can be declared static.
11. Can we declare a static variable inside a method?
Static varaibles are class level variables and they can't be declared inside a method. If declared, the class will not compile.
12. Can a abstract class be declared final?
Not possible. An abstract class without being inherited is of no use and hence will result in compile time error.
13. Why is an Interface be able to extend more than one Interface but a Class can't extend more than one Class?
Basically Java doesn't allow multiple inheritance, so a Class is restricted to extend only one Class. But an Interface is a pure abstraction model and doesn't have inheritance hierarchy like classes(do remember that the base class of all classes is Object). So an Interface is allowed to extend more than one Interface.
14. Can an Interface be defined inside a class?
Yes it's possible.
15. Can we define private and protected modifiers for variables in interfaces?
No.
16. What is Externalizable and writedown its methods?
Externalizable is an Interface that extends Serializable Interface. And sends data into Streams in Compressed Format. It has two methods, writeExternal(ObjectOuput out) and readExternal(ObjectInput in)
17. Can a Byte object be cast to a double value?
No, an object cannot be cast to a primitive value.
18. What modifiers may be used with an inner class that is a member of an outer class?
A (non-local) inner class may be declared as public, protected, private, static, final, or abstract.
19. Can an anonymous class be declared as implementing an interface and extending a class?
An anonymous class may implement an interface or extend a superclass, but may not be declared to do both.
20. What modifiers can be used with a local inner class?
A local inner class may be final or abstract.
21. What is an Iterator interface? What is the Vector class? . What is the List interface?

The Iterator interface is used to step through the elements of a Collection.
The Vector class provides the capability to implement a growable array of objects
The List interface provides support for ordered collections of objects

22. How many bits are used to represent Unicode, ASCII, UTF-16, and UTF-8 characters?
Unicode requires 16 bits and ASCII require 7 bits. Although the ASCII character set uses only 7 bits, it is
usually represented as 8 bits. UTF-8 represents characters using 8, 16, and 18 bit patterns. UTF-16 uses 16-
bit and larger bit patterns.
23What is the difference between yielding and sleeping?
When a task invokes its yield() method, it returns to the ready state. When a task invokes its sleep()
method, it returns to the waiting state.
24) Immutable objects are automatically thread-safe
–true/false?
Ans) True. Since the state of the immutable objects can not
be changed once they are created they are
automatically synchronized/thread-safe.
25.write down the structure of collection API.
26.treeset is used for?
A.sorting purpose.
27.if you want  get reverse order sorting what is the argument  you have to pass ..?
A .               Collections.reverseOrder()
28.difference between Hashmap and Hashtable?
A.hashmap non synchronized  and allows null values ,keys
hashtable synchronized and doesn’t allow null values ,keys.
29.Difference between add() ,addAll()?
A.adding one element,
Adding list1 to another list.
30.what does    processElement ()  method will do incase of stack and Queue?
A.         Stack:reading and removing last element.
Queue:reading and removing first element.
31.difference between poll() and peek() methods?
A   poll: reading the head element from the list.
Peek:reading and removing the head element from the list.
32.How many access levels are there what are they? 
A. Four access levels Public,default,protected.and private
33.Among all access levels which has highest access level?

When ever the subclass is also an abstract class.
46.We can create an object to abstract class?Y/N
A)N.

Part 2:
Q1. What is the difference between an Abstract class and Interface?
1. Abstract classes may have some executable methods and methods left
unimplemented. Interfaces contain no implementation code.
2. An class can implement any number of interfaces, but subclass at most one abstract class.
3. An abstract class can have nonabstract methods. All methods of an interface are
abstract.
4. An abstract class can have instance variables. An interface cannot.
5. An abstract class can define constructor. An interface cannot.
6. An abstract class can have any visibility: public, protected, private or none
(package). An interface's visibility must be public or none (package).
7. An abstract class inherits from Object and includes methods such as clone() and
equals().

Q2.What are checked and unchecked exceptions?
Java defines two kinds of exceptions :
Checked exceptions : Exceptions that inherit from the Exception class are
checked exceptions. Client code has to handle the checked exceptions thrown by
the API, either in a catch clause or by forwarding it outward with the throws clause.
Examples - SQLException, IOxception.
Unchecked exceptions : RuntimeException also extends from Exception. However,
all of the exceptions that inherit from RuntimeException get special treatment.
There is no requirement for the client code to deal with them, and hence they are
called unchecked exceptions. Example Unchecked exceptions are
NullPointerException, OutOfMemoryError, DivideByZeroException typically,
programming errors.

Q3.What is a user defined exception?
User-defined exceptions may be implemented by
• defining a class to respond to the exception and
• embedding a throw statement in the try block where the exception can occur or
declaring that the method throws the exception (to another method where it is
handled).
The developer can define a new exception by deriving it from the Exception class as follows:
public class MyException extends Exception {
/* class definition of constructors (but NOT the exception handling code) goes here public MyException() {
super();
}
public MyException( String errorMessage ) {
super( errorMessage );
}
}
The throw statement is used to signal the occurance of the exception within a try block. Often, exceptions are instantiated in the same statement in which they are thrown using the
syntax.
throw new MyException("I threw my own exception.")
To handle the exception within the method where it is thrown, a catch statement that handles MyException, must follow the try block. If the developer does not want to handle the exception in the method itself, the method must pass the exception using the syntax:
public myMethodName() throws MyException

Q4.What is the difference between C++ & Java?
Well as Bjarne Stroustrup says "..despite the syntactic similarities, C++ and Java are very different languages. In many ways, Java seems closer to Smalltalk than to C++..". Here are few I discovered:
• Java is multithreaded
• Java has no pointers
• Java has automatic memory management (garbage collection)
• Java is platform independent (Stroustrup may differ by saying "Java is a platform"
• Java has built-in support for comment documentation
• Java has no operator overloading
• Java doesn’t provide multiple inheritance
• There are no destructors in Java

Q5.What are statements in JAVA ?
Statements are equivalent to sentences in natural languages. A statement forms a complete
unit of execution. The following types of expressions can be made into a statement by
terminating the expression with a semicolon
• Assignment expressions
• Any use of ++ or --
• Method calls
• Object creation expressions
These kinds of statements are called expression statements. In addition to these kinds of
expression statements, there are two other kinds of statements. A declaration statement
declares a variable. A control flow statement regulates the order in which statements get
executed. The for loop and the if statement are both examples of control flow statements.

Q6.What is JAR file?
JavaARchive files are a big glob of Java classes, images, audio, etc., compressed to make
one simple, smaller file to ease Applet downloading. Normally when a browser encounters
an applet, it goes and downloads all the files, images, audio, used by the Applet separately.
This can lead to slower downloads.

Q7.What is JNI?
JNI is an acronym of Java Native Interface. Using JNI we can call functions which are written in other languages from Java. Following are its advantages and disadvantages.
Advantages:
• You want to use your existing library which was previously written in other
language.
• You want to call Windows API function.
• For the sake of execution speed.
• You want to call API function of some server product which is in c or c++ from java
client.
Disadvantages:
• You can’t say write once run anywhere.
• Difficult to debug runtime error in native code.
• Potential security risk.
• You can’t call it from Applet.

Q8.What is serialization?
Quite simply, object serialization provides a program the ability to read or write a whole object to and from a raw byte stream. It allows Java objects and primitives to be encoded into a byte stream suitable for streaming to some type of network or to a file-system, or more generally, to a transmission medium or storage facility. A seralizable object must implement the Serilizable interface. We use ObjectOutputStream to write this object to a stream and ObjectInputStream to read it from the stream.

Q9.Why there are some null interface in java ? What does it mean ? Give me some null interfaces in JAVA?
Null interfaces act as markers..they just tell the compiler that the objects of this class need to be treated differently..some marker interfaces are : Serializable, Remote, Cloneable

Q10. Is synchronised a modifier?indentifier??what is it??
It's a modifier. Synchronized methods are methods that are used to control access to an object. A thread only executes a synchronized method after it has acquired the lock for the method's object or class. Synchronized statements are similar to synchronized methods. A synchronized statement can only be executed after a thread has acquired the lock for the object or class referenced in the synchronized statement.

Q11.What is singleton class?where is it used?
Singleton is a design pattern meant to provide one and only one instance of an object. Other objects can get a reference to this instance through a static method (class constructor is kept private). Why do we need one? Sometimes it is necessary, and often sufficient, to create a single instance of a given class. This has advantages in memory management, and for Java, in garbage collection. Moreover, restricting the number of instances may be necessary or desirable for technological or business reasons--for example, we may only want a single instance of a pool of database connections.

Q12.What is a compilation unit?
The smallest unit of source code that can be compiled, i.e. a .java file.

Q13.Is string a wrapper class?
String is a class, but not a wrapper class. Wrapper classes like (Integer) exist for each primitive type. They can be used to convert a primitive data value into an object, and viceversa.

Q14.Why java does not have multiple inheritance?
The Java design team strove to make Java:
• Simple, object oriented, and familiar
• Robust and secure
• Architecture neutral and portable
• High performance
• Interpreted, threaded, and dynamic
The reasons for omitting multiple inheritance from the Java language mostly stem from the "simple, object oriented, and familiar" goal. As a simple language, Java's creators wanted a language that most developers could grasp without extensive training. To that end, they worked to make the language as similar to C++ as possible (familiar) without carrying over C++'s unnecessary complexity (simple).
In the designers' opinion, multiple inheritance causes more problems and confusion than it solves. So they cut multiple inheritance from the language (just as they cut operator overloading). The designers' extensive C++ experience taught them that multiple inheritance just wasn't worth the headache.

Q15.Why java is not a 100% oops?
Many people say this because Java uses primitive types such as int, char, double. But then all the rest are objects. Confusing question.

Q16.What is a resource bundle?
In its simplest form, a resource bundle is represented by a text file containing keys and a text value for each key.

Q17.What is transient variable?
Transient variable can't be serialize. For example if a variable is declared as transient in a Serializable class and the class is written to an ObjectStream, the value of the variable can't be written to the stream instead when the class is retrieved from the ObjectStream the value of the variable becomes null.

Q18.What is Collection API?
The Collection API is a set of classes and interfaces that support operation on collections of objects. These classes and interfaces are more flexible, more powerful, and more regular than the vectors, arrays, and hashtables if effectively replaces.
Example of classes: HashSet, HashMap, ArrayList, LinkedList, TreeSet and TreeMap.
Example of interfaces: Collection, Set, List and Map.

Q19.Is Iterator a Class or Interface? What is its use?
Iterator is an interface which is used to step through the elements of a Collection.

Q20.What is similarities/difference between an Abstract class and Interface?
Differences are as follows:
• Interfaces provide a form of multiple inheritance. A class can extend only one other
class.
• Interfaces are limited to public methods and constants with no implementation.
Abstract classes can have a partial implementation, protected parts, static methods,
etc.
• A Class may implement several interfaces. But in case of abstract class, a class may extend only one abstract class.
• Interfaces are slow as it requires extra indirection to to find corresponding method
in in the actual class. Abstract classes are fast.
Similarities:
• Neither Abstract classes or Interface can be instantiated.

Q21.What is a transient variable?
A transient variable is a variable that may not be serialized.

Q22.Which containers use a border Layout as their default layout?
The window, Frame and Dialog classes use a border layout as their default layout.

Q23.Why do threads block on I/O?
Threads block on i/o (that is enters the waiting state) so that other threads may execute while the i/o Operation is performed.

Q24.How are Observer and Observable used?
Objects that subclass the Observable class maintain a list of observers. When an Observable object is updated it invokes the update() method of each of its observers to notify the observers that it has changed state. The Observer interface is implemented by objects that observe Observable objects.

Q25.What is synchronization and why is it important?
With respect to multithreading, synchronization is the capability to control the access of multiple threads to shared resources. Without synchronization, it is possible for one thread to modify a shared object while another thread is in the process of using or updating that object's value. This often leads to significant errors.

Q26. Can a lock be acquired on a class?
Yes, a lock can be acquired on a class. This lock is acquired on the class's Class object.

Q27. What's new with the stop(), suspend() and resume() methods in JDK 1.2?
The stop(), suspend() and resume() methods have been deprecated in JDK 1.2.

Q28. Is null a keyword?

Q32. What state does a thread enter when it terminates its processing?
When a thread terminates its processing, it enters the dead state.

Q33. What is the Collections API?
The Collections API is a set of classes and interfaces that support operations on collections of objects.

Q34. Which characters may be used as the second character
of an identifier, but not as the first character of an identifier?
The digits 0 through 9 may not be used as the first character of an identifier but they may be used after the first character of an identifier.

Q35. What is the List interface?
The List interface provides support for ordered collections of objects.

Q36. How does Java handle integer overflows and underflows?
It uses those low order bytes of the result that can fit into the size of the type allowed by the operation.

Q37. What is the Vector class?
The Vector class provides the capability to implement a growable array of objects

Q38. What modifiers may be used with an inner class that is a member of an outer class?

Q39. What is an Iterator interface?
The Iterator interface is used to step through the elements of a Collection.

Q40. What is the difference between the >> and >>> operators?
The >> operator carries the sign bit when shifting right. The >>> zero-fills bits that have been shifted out.

Q41. Which method of the Component class is used to set the position and size of a component?
setBounds()

Q42. How many bits are used to represent Unicode, ASCII, UTF-16, and UTF-8 characters?
Unicode requires 16 bits and ASCII require 7 bits. Although the ASCII character set uses only 7 bits, it is usually represented as 8 bits. UTF-8 represents characters using 8, 16, and 18 bit patterns. UTF-16 uses 16-bit and larger bit patterns.

Q43. What is the difference between yielding and sleeping?
When a task invokes its yield() method, it returns to the ready state. When a task invokes its sleep() method, it returns to the waiting state.

Q44. Which java.util classes and interfaces support event handling?
The EventObject class and the EventListener interface support event processing.

Q45. Is sizeof a keyword?
The sizeof operator is not a keyword.

Q46. What are wrapped classes?
Wrapped classes are classes that allow primitive types to be accessed as objects.

Q47. Does garbage collection guarantee that a program will not run out of memory?
Garbage collection does not guarantee that a program will not run out of memory. It is possible for programs to use up memory resources faster than they are garbage collected. It is also possible for programs to create objects that are not subject to garbage collection

Q48. What restrictions are placed on the location of a package statement within a source code file?
A package statement must appear as the first line in a source code file (excluding blank lines and comments).

Q49. Can an object's finalize() method be invoked while it is reachable?
An object's finalize() method cannot be invoked by the garbage collector while the object is still reachable. However, an object's finalize() method may be invoked by other objects.

Q50. What is the immediate superclass of the Applet class?
Panel

Q51. What is the difference between preemptive scheduling and time slicing?
Under preemptive scheduling, the highest priority task executes until it enters the waiting or dead states or a higher priority task comes into existence. Under time slicing, a task executes for a predefined slice of time and then reenters the pool of ready tasks. The scheduler then determines which task should execute next, based on priority and other factors.

Q52 Name three Component subclasses that support painting.
The Canvas, Frame, Panel, and Applet classes support painting.

Q53. What value does readLine() return when it has reached the end of a file?

Clipping is the process of confining paint operations to a limited area or shape.

Q56. What is a native method?
A native method is a method that is implemented in a language other than Java.

Q57. Can a for statement loop indefinitely?
Yes, a for statement can loop indefinitely. For example, consider the following: for(;;) ;

Q58. What are order of precedence and associativity, and how are they used?
Order of precedence determines the order in which operators are evaluated in expressions. Associatity determines whether an expression is evaluated left-to-right or right-to-left

Q59. When a thread blocks on I/O, what state does it enter?
A thread enters the waiting state when it blocks on I/O.

Q60. To what value is a variable of the String type automatically initialized?
The default value of an String type is null.

Q61. What is the catch or declare rule for method declarations?
If a checked exception may be thrown within the body of a method, the method must either catch the exception or declare it in its throws clause.

Q62. What is the difference between a MenuItem and a CheckboxMenuItem?
The CheckboxMenuItem class extends the MenuItem class to support a menu item that may be checked or unchecked.

Q63. What is a task's priority and how is it used in scheduling?

Q72. Which class is the immediate superclass of the MenuComponent class.
Object

Q73. What invokes a thread's run() method?
After a thread is started, via its start() method or that of the Thread class, the JVM invokes the thread's run() method when the thread is initially executed.

Q74. What is the difference between the Boolean & operator and the && operator?
If an expression involving the Boolean & operator is evaluated, both operands are
evaluated. Then the & operator is applied to the operand. When an expression involving the && operator is evaluated, the first operand is evaluated. If the first operand returns a value of true then the second operand is evaluated. The && operator is then applied to the first and second operands. If the first operand evaluates to false, the evaluation of the second operand is skipped.

Q75. Name three subclasses of the Component class.

An object's finalize() method may only be invoked once by the garbage collector.

Q80. What is the purpose of the finally clause of a try-catchfinally statement?
The finally clause is used to provide the capability to execute code no matter whether or not an exception is thrown or caught.

Q81. What is the argument type of a program's main() method?
A program's main() method takes an argument of the String[] type.

Q82. Which Java operator is right associative?
The = operator is right associative.

Q83. What is the Locale class?
The Locale class is used to tailor program output to the conventions of a particular
geographic, political, or cultural region.

Q84. Can a double value be cast to a byte?
Yes, a double value can be cast to a byte.

Q85. What is the difference between a break statement and a continue statement?
A break statement results in the termination of the statement to which it applies (switch, for, do, or while). A continue statement is used to end the current loop iteration and return control to the loop statement.

Q86. What must a class do to implement an interface?
It must provide all of the methods in the interface and identify the interface in its
implements clause.

Q87. What method is invoked to cause an object to begin executing as a separate thread?
The start() method of the Thread class is invoked to cause an object to begin executing as a separate thread.

Q88. Name two subclasses of the TextComponent class.
TextField and TextArea

Q89. What is the advantage of the event-delegation model over the earlier eventinheritance model?
The event-delegation model has two advantages over the event-inheritance model. First, it enables event handling to be handled by objects other than the ones that generate the events (or their containers). This allows a clean separation between a component's design and its use. The other advantage of the event-delegation model is that it performs much better in applications where many events are generated. This performance improvement is due to the fact that the event-delegation model does not have to repeatedly process unhandled events, as is the case of the event-inheritance model.

Q90. Which containers may have a MenuBar?
Frame

Q91. How are commas used in the intialization and iteration parts of a for statement?
Commas are used to separate multiple statements within the initialization and iteration parts of a for statement.

Q92. What is the purpose of the wait(), notify(), and notifyAll() methods?
The wait(),notify(), and notifyAll() methods are used to provide an efficient way for threads to wait for a shared resource. When a thread executes an object's wait() method, it enters the waiting state. It only enters the ready state after another thread invokes the object's notify() or notifyAll() methods..

Q93. What is an abstract method?
An abstract method is a method whose implementation is deferred to a subclass.

Q94. How are Java source code files named?
A Java source code file takes the name of a public class or interface that is defined within the file. A source code file may contain at most one public class or interface. If a public class or interface is defined within a source code file, then the source code file must take the name of the public class or interface. If no public class or interface is defined within a source code file, then the file must take on a name that is different than its classes and interfaces. Source code files use the .java extension.

Q95. What is the relationship between the Canvas class and the Graphics class?
A Canvas object provides access to a Graphics object via its paint() method.

Q96. What are the high-level thread states?
The high-level thread states are ready, running, waiting, and dead.

Q97. What value does read() return when it has reached the end of a file?
The read() method returns -1 when it has reached the end of a file.

Q98. Can a Byte object be cast to a double value?
No, an object cannot be cast to a primitive value.

Q99. What is the difference between a static and a nonstatic inner class?
A non-static inner class may have object instances that are associated with instances of the class's outer class. A static inner class does not have any object instances.

Q100. What is the difference between the String and StringBuffer classes?
String objects are constants. StringBuffer objects are not.

Q101. If a variable is declared as private, where may the variable be accessed?
A private variable may only be accessed within the class in which it is declared.

Q102. What is an object's lock and which object's have locks?
An object's lock is a mechanism that is used by multiple threads to obtain synchronized access to the object. A thread may execute a synchronized method of an object only after it has acquired the object's lock. All objects and classes have locks. A class's lock is acquired on the class's Class object.

Q103. What is the Dictionary class?
The Dictionary class provides the capability to store key-value pairs.

Q104. How are the elements of a BorderLayout organized?
The elements of a BorderLayout are organized at the borders (North, South, East, and West) and the center of a container.

Q105. What is the % operator?
It is referred to as the modulo or remainder operator. It returns the remainder of dividing the first operand by the second operand.

Q106. When can an object reference be cast to an interface reference?
An object reference be cast to an interface reference when the object implements the referenced interface.

Q107. What is the difference between a Window and a Frame?
The Frame class extends Window to define a main application window that can have a menu bar.

Q108. Which class is extended by all other classes?
The Object class is extended by all other classes.

Q109. Can an object be garbage collected while it is still reachable?
A reachable object cannot be garbage collected. Only unreachable objects may be garbage collected..

Q110. Is the ternary operator written x : y ? z or x ? y : z ?
It is written x ? y : z.

Q111. What is the difference between the Font and FontMetrics classes?

Q165. What is the difference between the JDK 1.02 event model and the event-delegation model introduced with JDK 1.1?
The JDK 1.02 event model uses an event inheritance or bubbling approach. In this model, components are required to handle their own events. If they do not handle a particular event, the event is inherited by (or bubbled up to) the component's container. The container then either handles the event or it is bubbled up to its container and so on, until the highest-level container has been tried..In the event-delegation model, specific objects are designated as event handlers for GUI components. These objects implement event-listener interfaces. The event-delegation model is more efficient than the event-inheritance model because it eliminates the processing required to support the bubbling of unhandled events.

Q197. What happens if a try-catch-finally statement doesnot have a catch clause to handle an exception that is
thrown within the body of the try statement?
The exception propagates up to the next higher level try-catch statement (if any) or results in the program's termination.

Q198. What is numeric promotion?

            //more code here
      }
     }
Without existing Car object there is no chance of existing Engine object, hence Engine class has declared inside Car class.

  • Sometimes we can declare a class inside a method such type of classes are called method local   
inner  classes
  • The main purpose of method local inner classes is to define method specific functionality
The scope of method local inner classes is the scope of the method where it is declared.
  • This is the mostly rarely used type of inner classes.
           Example 
           class Test{
      public  void  m1(){
               class Inner {
                               public void sum(int I,int j){
                  System.out.println(i+J);
            }//sum
             }//inner
            Inner  i=new Inner();
            i.sum(10,20);
            //more code here  
           I.sum(100,303);

      • Anonymous inner class that extends a class
      • Anonymous inner class that implements an interface
      • Anonymous inner class that defines inside a method argument

            ANONYMOUS INNER CLASS THAT EXTENDS A CLASS
            Example
            Class popcorn{
                  Public void taste(){
                        System.out.println(“it is salty”);
                  }
                  //more code here
            } 
            Class Test{
                  Public static void main(String[] args)
                        {
                        Popcorn p=new Popcorn()
                        {    // here we are creating child class for popcorn
      Public void taste(){
      System.out.println(“it is sweet”);
                              }
};//here semicolon indicates we r creating child class object with parent    
// class reference here child class dosent contain name
                  p.taste()// it is sweet
                  Popcorn p=new Popcorn();
                  p1.taste() //it is salty
                  }
            }

 
ANONYMOUS INNER CLASS THAT IMPLEMENTS AN INTERFACE
example 
      class Test{
               Public static void main(String[] args){
            Runnable r=new Runnable(){
                  Public void run(){
                         for(int i=0;i<10;i++){
                        System.out.printin(“child thread”);
       }
}
            };
      Thread t=new Thread(r);
            t.start();
            for(int i=0;i<10;i++){
                  System.out.printin(“main thread”);
      }
      }
      }
      Don’t become fool that here we are creating object of interface Runnable.Here we are actually
               creating an object of class that is  implemented Runnable interface. 
      ANONYMOUS INNER CLASS THAT DEFINES INSIDE A METHOD ARGUMENT
      Example
      Class Test{
                      Public static void main(String[] args){
                  New Thread(new Runnable()
                                                                       {
                                    Public void run(){
                                    for(int i=0;i<10;i++){
                                          System.out.printin(“child thread”);
          } 
                                    }
                                     }).start();
                              for(int i=0;i<10;i++){
                  System.out.printin(“main thread”);
                     }
                  }//main
            }//Test

6. What is difference between anonymous inner class and general class?
  • A general class can extend only one class at a time of course inner class can extend only one class at a  Time.
  • A general class can implement any no of interfaces at a time but a anonymous inner class can
  • implement only one interface at a time
  • A general class can extend a class and can implement an interface simultaneously but an
anonymous inner class can extend a class or can implement an interface one at a time but not
both simualtaneously
 
7. What is difference between normal inner class and static nested class?
       
Normal Inner Class
Static Nested Class
  1. Inner class object always associated with outer class object ie without existing outer class object    there is no chance of existing inner class object.
  1. Nested class object never associated with
       outer class object , ie  without existing outer class object inner class object can exist
  1. Inside normal inner class we cant declare static members.
  1. Inside static nested class can
         declare static members
  1. We cant place main method in normal inner class and hence innocation of inner class directly from   command prompt is not possible.
  1. We can place main method in static nested class and    hence  innocation of nested class directly from command prompt is possible
  1. From normal inner class we can access both static and non static members of outer class.
  1. From static nested class we can access only static member of outer class

8.What is static nested calss?why the term nested instead of inner in static nested class?
      Some times we can declare inner class with static modifier such type of inner  class are called static
       nested classes.the term nested instead of static because without existing outer class object inner
       class object can exist. 
       Example
      Class outer{
      Static class Nested{
            Public static void main(String[] args){
                  System.out.println(“nested class main()”);
            }
      }
      Public static void main(String[] args){
            System.out.println(“outer class main()”);
      }
  • Java Outer
O/P
Outer class main() 
  • Java Outer$Nested
  O/P
Nested class main()
