Q842. How Reflection can break any design pattern ?

Design

Ans. Using java reflection api, we can tweak into a class and modify it's runtime behavior and hence modify the pattern it might be using.

Q843. How serialization breaks Singleton pattern ?

Design

Ans. It's not serialization but de serialization that breaks purpose of singleton as new objects can be brought to life using the serialized object.

Q844. Why the singleton class should never implement Cloneable interface ?

Design

Ans. Because Singleton implementation doesn't restrict it from cloning and hence we can have multiple objects when we actually don't intend it to have multiple objects.

Q845. What are the ways to break singleton pattern ?

Design

Ans. If we don't have double checked locking, it can be broken easily through multi threaded access.

Through Reflection.

If multiple class loaders are loading the class.

If the class is serializable or cloneable.

Q846. Create a stack of specific size using arrayList?

Data Structure

Ans. public class StackUsingArrayList {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      List list = new ArrayList();
      list.add("A");
      list.add("B");
      list.add("C");

      Stack stack = new Stack();

      list.forEach(a -> stack.add(a));
      System.out.println(stack);

   }

Q847. Should we have instance variables in the Spring Bean which has been scoped as Singleton ?

Spring

Ans. No, if required we should only have final variables. Bean scoped singleton means that only one instance of the bean will be created and will be shared among different requests and hence instance variables will get shared too.

Q848. Difference between Eager and Lazy loading in hibernate ?

Hibernate

Ans. Lazy Loading is loading of entities on demand when subclass is called, while Eager loading is loading of all the sub entity at the start only.

Eager loading is fast as all sub entities are already present, but its heavy(takes more memory)

Q855. Can we have a private default method ?

Core Java

Ans. No. The whole idea of default method is to provide a default definition in case the implementing class intend to provide definition for only some of the methods. Making any of the interface method private would restrict it from being implemented by the implementing class. So default method is an option to provide implementation and not restricting a new definition.

_{Like Discuss Correct / Improve java 9 default methods}

Q856. What could be the reason for allowing private methods in java 9 ?

Core Java

Ans. Java 8 allowed for method implementation using default methods in interfaces. As those default methods could contain complex logic and might need organizing the logic into multiple methods, they have allowed for private methods.

Q858. What will the following code print and Why

class Class1 {
static{
System.out.println("Wow");
}
public static final int xyz=1;
}

class Class2{
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println(String.valueOf(Class1.xyz));
}
}

Core Java

Ans. 1

Reason being that Class1.xyz is replaced with 1 during pre compilation only and a reference to Class1 is never made.

Q864. Which of the OOP's feature is most important ?

Core Java

Ans. Encapsulation facilitate hiding and restricted access and hence more of a security feature. Encapsulation is definitely a great feature as when applications expand criss cross communication between objects / modules could lead to blunders.

Inheritance facilitates code reuse.

Polymorphism comprise of method overloaded ( which to me is negligible usage ) and method overriding. Method overriding is of great usage as it facilitates concept of interfaces and plugin development.

So it’s Security / Organization vs

Code Reuse / Support for other features like overriding vs

Contracts / Plugin Development facilitating the creation of frameworks / libraries.

Which is more important may vary from application to application , its scale , its use , its sensitivity etc.

Q865. Which of the polymorphism type - static or runtime - is more important ?

Core Java

Ans. Method overloading / static polymorphism compared to method overriding / runtime polymorphism has very limited usage as it just opens up an alternate way of defining a different method with the same name.

Method Overriding on other hand opens up many other features like contracting , interfacing , pluging development and hence development of libraries and frameworks.

Q866. Which of the OOP's feature - encapsulation or abstraction - is more important ?

Core Java

Ans. Encapsulation facilitates security by hiding data and logic whereas Abstraction simplifies organization of data and related logic.

As applications scale, both concepts are required for easy management and maintenance. Encapsulation for security and criss cross communication between objects / modules will make it vulnerable. and Abstraction for better organization that enables better understanding of application code and easy maintainability.
