Thread: Java Fundamental

Which one of the following is an advantage of providing accessor methods in a class, rather than making the class's fields publicly accessible?

Choice 1 Accessor methods can ensure data integrity by validating the proposed value. Any value could be written to a public field.

Choice 2 Accessor methods can prevent memory overwrites by performing bounds checks on arrays. Public fields are not checked for bounds overrun.

Choice 3 The accessor methods are automatically available to other tasks using the RMI subsystem. Public fields cannot be remotely accessed.

Choice 4 Accessor methods improve performance by avoiding a context switch in the bytecode interpreter. Accessing a public field requires loading the object's data pointer.

Choice 5 Accessor methods can be made accessible to classes in other packages. Public fields are only usable from the same package.


I think choice 4 is the correct answer. please advise

How do you store a copy of an object at the same time other threads are changing the object's properties?

Choice 1 You do not need to do anything special since all ObjectOutputStream methods are synchronized.

Choice 2 Clone the object in a block synchronized on the object and serialize the clone.

Choice 3 Implement java.io.Externalizable instead of java.io.Serializable.

Choice 4 Give the thread performing storage a higher priority than other threads.

Choice 5 Override writeObject() in ObjectOutputStream to make it synchronized.


I think choice1 is the correct answer. please sugest.

Invoking a method can represent a significant amount of overhead in a program; as such, some compilers will perform an optimization called "method inlining." This optimization will remove a method call by copying the code inside the method into the calling method.

Referring to the text above, which one of these statements is true?

Choice 1 The developer of inlined methods must copy and paste the code that is to be inlined into another method.

Choice 2 The performance benefits should be balanced against the increased chance of a RuntimeException.

Choice 3 It allows the use of getter and setter methods to execute nearly as fast as direct access to member variables.

Choice 4 It prevents code from executing in a way that follows object-oriented encapsulation.

Choice 5 This optimization will only occur if the relevant methods are declared volatile.



Pls suggest which is most appropriate choice. I think its choice3

Which one of the following is a checked exception?

Choice 1 Error

Choice 2 NullPointerException

Choice 3 ArithmeticException

Choice 4 RuntimeException

Choice 5 Exception


I am really confused with the options given. clearly options1 to 4 are not checked. left with choice 5 only.

Which statement about JavaBeans is NOT true?

Choice 1 A JavaBean is a re-usable software component.

Choice 2 A JavaBean is immutable; it cannot contain variable data.

Choice 3 A JavaBean can contain variable data.

Choice 4 A JavaBean must be serializable.

Choice 5 A JavaBean generally has one setter for every getter.


Chocie 2 for me,

What java.util class method is used to sort an array of beans, where the method can specify the order of sorting?

Choice 1 Collections.sort(beans);

Choice 2 Algorithms.quickSort(beans);

Choice 3 ArrayList.sort(beans, ASCENDING);

Choice 4 Arrays.sort(beans, comparator);

Choice 5 ArrayList.sort(beans);

a. final

b. abstract

c. virtual

d. static

Which of the keywords above are often used with polymorphic methods?

Choice 1 a

Choice 2 b

Choice 3 c

Choice 4 a, b, and d

Choice 5 a, b, c, and d


Choice 1?

Scenario

a. Scrollable is an interface.

b. Writable is an interface.

c. TextScreen is an abstract class.

d. VideoScreen is a class that extends TextScreen and implements both Scrollable and Writable.

Referring to the scenario above, which one of the following statements is always true?

Choice 1 A Scrollable can be cast to a VideoScreen.

Choice 2 A VideoScreen cannot be passed to a method that expects a TextScreen.

Choice 3 A VideoScreen cannot be passed to a method that expects a Scrollable.

Choice 4 A VideoScreen cannot be passed to a method that expects a Writable.

Choice 5 A VideoScreen can be cast to a Scrollable.


Choice 5?

Please do not post the same question multiple times on the forum.

Threads merged.

So which is it, 1 or 4? Why?
