Q1471. In Java, if object A contains same the same data of object B, are they equal?

Ans. it depends on the implementation of equals method of the respective class. If no definition is provided and it uses the default definition of the object class, two references are equal only if they point to the same object.

We can have such an equality defined for a particular class objects if we provide appropriate implementation of equals method comparing all those fields.

Q1472. What is stub and skelton ?

SOAP

Ans. RMI uses a standard mechanism for communicating with remote objects i.e stubs and skeletons. A stub for a remote object acts as a client's local representative. The caller invokes a method on the local stub which is responsible for carrying out the method call on the remote object.

Stub resides at the client that upon calling whose method results in establishing connection with the server, serializing and mar shelling the request and then waiting for the response whereas skelton resides at the server that receives the request, unmarshal it and then deserialize to fulfil the request.

Q1480. How would you go about creating a get rest service if it requires multitude of params or inputs ?

Rest

Ans. If the number of input values is large, we can go about passing them as query params instead of path params. If the number is even larger and complex , its better to create a post service that behaves like a get service. Though this practice is not recommended but technically it can be accomplished.I dont mind doing it if the exceptionally large number of input would make it much more confusing.

Q1481. What is the importance of Abstract Class ?

Core Java

Ans. Abstract classes provide a mechanism of interfacing ( using abstract method ) as well as code reuse through inheritance ( extending abstract class )

Comparing to concrete class they have an advantage of providing interface which a concrete class doesn't provide.

Q1499. What is "convention over configuration" ? Which framework uses this design paradigm ?

Design

Ans. Convention over configuration is a way of software design used by frameworks that attempt to decrease the number of decisions that a developer is required to make without necessarily losing flexibility. The objective is to reduce the unnecessary configurations and follow conventions to accomplish that. For example - DB Entity and DB Table name conventionally should be same and hence shouldn't require configuring mapping between the two.

"Spring Boot" and "Ruby on Rails" have adopted this design principle.
