Very frequently asked. Usually among very first few questions.
 Q1271. Define encapsulation in Java ?Core Java
Ans. Encapsulation is a feature of OOP's that binds the data and it's associated methods together as a single unit and facilitate protection and data hiding by providing minimal interface to outside. For example - member variables are declared private and are accessed through public methods. Moreover we have private methods that can only be used internally and hence providing minimal interface to outside class through use of public methods.

 Q1274. What do you understand by "Scaling Trigger" ?Server
Ans. It's a configuration for auto scaling environment that specify the attributes / conditions for scaling instances up and down. For example - We may like environment to scale up when the number of requests / sec increases a particular threshold and scale down when it decreases below a threshold.

 Q1275. How can we know how many instances are currently in service within an Elastic Beanstalk environment ?Amazon Web Services (AWS)
Ans. We can go to respective environment and check configuration and then scaling. It mentions that as current status like

Current status:

2 instance(s) in service, Min: 1, Max: 4

 Q1277. How can we get count of all keys within Redis ?Redis
Ans. We can either do DBSIZE or KEYS *

Keys * will return the list of all keys too so DBSIZE is preferred if we just want the count.

 Q1278. What is the difference between "Manual Scaling" and "Auto Scaling" ? Server
Ans. Manual scaling is the process of scaling instances up and down in a an enviornment manually by observing the scaling trigger whereas Auto scaling is the process wherein a Trigger condition specified as a scaling trigger will trigger scaling up and down of instances.

for example - If an organization has a policy of scaling up if requests / sec / instance exceeds 10000, Operations team will have to manually monitor the metric and they can request scaling up and down as the need arise. Manual scaling offers flexibility as team can scale on the basis of combination of factors and can take decision on flyby requires continuous monitoring.

The same trigger can be fed as triggering policy to the environment and can be taken care by the system. This requires availability of such triggering policy within the environment configuration but as it's automatically handled, requires no supervision.

 Q1279. Give an example of how Object Oriented Programming Concepts can be implemented.Design
Ans. You can implement encapsulation in Java by keeping the fields (class variables) private and providing public getter and setter methods to each of them. Java Beans are examples of fully encapsulated classes. Encapsulation in Java: Restricts direct access to data members (fields) of a class.

 Q1283. What is an infinite loop ?Core Java
Ans. Infinite loop is a programming condition wherein the control goes into an infinite loop because the loop termination condition can never be met. For example -

for(int x=1;x>0;x++){
}

in this loop, with each increment the condition x > 0 will remain true till infinity.

 Help us improve. Please let us know the company, where you were asked this question :   

   Like         Discuss         Correct / Improve     spring  dependency injection   inversion of control


 Q1293. Difference between constructor and setter injection ?Spring
Ans. 1. In Setter Injection, partial injection of dependencies can possible, means if we have 3 dependencies like int, string, long, then its not necessary to inject all values if we use setter injection. If you are not inject it will takes default values for those primitives1. In constructor injection, partial injection of dependencies cannot possible, because for calling constructor we must pass all the arguments right, if not so we may get error

2. Setter Injection will overrides the constructor injection value, provided if we write setter and constructor injection for the same property [i already told regarding this, hope you remember ] But, constructor injection cannot overrides the setter injected values

3. If we have more dependencies for example 15 to 20 are there in our bean class then, in this case setter injection is not recommended as we need to write almost 20 setters right, bean length will increase. In this case, Constructor injection is highly recommended, as we can inject all the dependencies with in 3 to 4 lines [i mean, by calling one constructor]

4. Setter injection makes bean class object as mutable [We can change ] .Constructor injection makes bean class object as immutable [We cannot change ]
