26 to 30 Questions of Java

26. What is the difference between this() and super()?
this() can be used to invoke a constructor of the same class whereas super() can be used to invoke a super class constructor.

27. What is Domain Naming Service(DNS)?
It is very difficult to remember a set of numbers(IP address) to connect to the Internet. The Domain Naming Service(DNS) is used to overcome this problem. It maps one particular IP address to a string of characters. For example, www. mascom. com implies com is the domain name reserved for US commercial sites, moscom is the name of the company and www is the name of the specific computer, which is mascom’s server.

28. What is URL?
URL stands for Uniform Resource Locator and it points to resource files on the Internet. URL has four components: http://www. address. com:80/index.html, where http – protocol name, address – IP address or host name, 80 – port number and index.html – file path.

29. What is RMI and steps involved in developing an RMI object?
Remote Method Invocation (RMI) allows java object that executes on one machine and to invoke the method of a Java object to execute on another machine. The steps involved in developing an RMI object are: a) Define the interfaces b) Implementing these interfaces c) Compile the interfaces and their implementations with the java compiler d) Compile the server implementation with RMI compiler e) Run the RMI registry f) Run the application.

30. What is RMI architecture?
RMI architecture consists of four layers and each layer performs specific functions: a) Application layer – contains the actual object definition. b) Proxy layer – consists of stub and skeleton. c) Remote Reference layer – gets the stream of bytes from the transport layer and sends it to the proxy layer. d) Transportation layer – responsible for handling the actual machine-to-machine communication.

Provides a component base architecture for web development, using the Java Platform The foundation for Java Server Pages (JSP). Alternative to CGI scripting and platform specific server side applications.

Compact Strings -  Java 9 Feature

Motivation The current implementation of the String class stores characters in a char array, using two bytes (sixteen bits) for each character. Data gathered from many different applications indicates that strings are a major component of heap usage and, moreover, that most String objects contain only Latin-1 characters. Such characters require only one byte of storage, hence half of the space in the internal char arrays of such String objects is going unused Description We propose to change the internal representation of the String class from a UTF-16 char array to a byte array plus an encoding-flag field. The new String class will store characters encoded either as ISO-8859-1/Latin-1 (one byte per character), or as UTF-16 (two bytes per character), based upon the contents of the string. The encoding flag will indicate which encoding is used. String-related classes such as AbstractStringBuilder, StringBuilder, and StringBuffer will be updated to use the same representation, as wi...

What is Applet ?

***What is an Applet? An Applet is a program that can be referenced by an HTML source code of a web page. It is dynamically downloaded from a web server to a browser and it is executed in the environment provided by the browser. Applet Viewer can also be used to execute  the applet. ***FirstApplet.java import java.applet.Applet; import java.awt.Graphics; /*<applet code=“FirstApplet” width=200 height=200> </applet>*/ public class FirstApplet extends Applet { public void paint(Graphics g) { g.drawString(“Hello World”,20,100); } } *** In the above example, The first two line is importing the java.applet and java.awt.Graphics package. The third line is the comment entry which is used only for applet viewer to execute the applet using the HTML source code. The next line declares the FirstApplet class which extends Applet class. Note that each applet created by user must extend the Applet class. There is a paint() method defined...
