Ans. System is a class within java.lang package that contains several useful class fields and methods. It cannot be instantiated and hence can use only statically.even in this case this has been used statically i.e with class name itself and without creating an instance. out is the static reference of Printstream declared as following in the System Class - public final static PrintStream out = null; println is the method of PrintStream class. | ||||

Ans. IP authentication is very restrictive, if IP changes for some reason then getting the new IP white listed on the server firewall could run your day pretty long. I would prefer encrypted password authentication cause it is not affected by IP changes and not limited to a white listed IP, I could use any different machine and get through authentication without any hassle. | ||||

Ans. Both Arrays and ArrayLists are used to store elements. Elements can be either primitives or objects in case of Arrays, but only objects can be stored in Arraylist. Array is a fixed length data structure while arraylist is variable length collection class. Once created, you cannot change the size of the arrays, but arraylists can dynamically resize itself when needed.Another notable difference between Arrays and Arrayslist is that arary is part of core java programming and array list is part of collection classes | ||||

Frequently asked to fresh graduates. | ||||
| ||||
Ans. 1. when an OS wants to start running program it creates new process means a process is a program that is currently executing and every process has at least one thread running within it. 2). A thread is a path of code execution in the program, which has its own local variables, program counter(pointer to current execution being executed) and lifetime. 3. When the JavaVirtual Machine (JavaVM, or just VM) is started by the operating system, a new process is created. Within that process, many threads can be created. 4. Consider an example : when you open Microsoft word in your OS and you check your task manger then you can see this running program as a process. now when you write something in opened word document, then it performs more than one work at same time like it checks for the correct spelling, it formats the word you enter , so within that process ( word) , due to different path execution(thread) all different works are done at same time. 5. Within a process , every thread has independent path of execution but there may be situation where two threads can interfere with each other then concurrency and deadlock come is picture. 6. like two process can communicate ( ex:u open an word document and file explorer and on word document you drag and drop another another file from file explorer), same way two threads can also communicate with each other and communication with two threads is relatively low. 7. Every thread in java is created and controlled by unique object of java.lang.Thread class. 8. prior to jdk 1.5, there were lack in support of asynchronous programming in java, so in that case it was considered that thread makes the runtime environment asynchronous and allow different task to perform concurrently. | ||||

Ans. class A { void test() { System.out.println("test() method"); } } class B { void test() { System.out.println("test() method"); } } Suppose if Java allows multiple inheritance like this, class C extends A, B { } A and B test() methods are inheriting to C class. So which test() method C class will take? As A & B class test() methods are different , So here we would Facing Ambiguity. | ||||

Ans. When an exception is thrown within the body of a try statement, the catch clauses of the try statement are examined in the order in which they appear. The first catch clause that is capable of handling the exception is executed. The remaining catch clauses are ignored. | ||||

Ans. A static initialization block is a normal block of code enclosed in braces, { }, and preceded by the static keyword. Here is an example: static { // whatever code is needed for initialization goes here } A class can have any number of static initialization blocks, and they can appear anywhere in the class body. The runtime system guarantees that static initialization blocks are called in the order that they appear in the source code. | ||||

Ans. Annotations, a form of metadata, provide data about a program that is not part of the program itself. Annotations have no direct effect on the operation of the code they annotate. Annotations have a number of uses, among them: • Information for the compiler — Annotations can be used by the compiler to detect errors or suppress warnings. • Compile-time and deployment-time processing — Software tools can process annotation information to generate code, XML files, and so forth. • Runtime processing — Some annotations are available to be examined at runtime. | ||||
