© 2003 Prentice Hall, Inc. All rights reserved. 8.1 Introduction • Object Oriented Programming (OOP) – Encapsulates data (attributes) and methods (behaviors) • Objects – Allows objects to communicate • Well-defined interfaces

© 2003 Prentice Hall, Inc. All rights reserved. 8.1 Introduction (cont.) • Procedural programming language – C is an example – Action-oriented – Functions are units of programming • Object-oriented programming language – Java is an example – Object-oriented – Classes are units of programming • Functions, or methods, are encapsulated in classes

© 2003 Prentice Hall, Inc. All rights reserved. 8.2 Implementing a Time Abstract Data Type with a Class • We introduce classes Time1 and TimeTest – Time1.java declares class Time1 – TimeTest.java declares class TimeTest – public classes must be declared in separate files – Class Time1 will not execute by itself • Does not have method main • TimeTest, which has method main, creates (instantiates) and uses Time1 object

All rights reserved. 8.2 Implementing a Time Abstract Data Type with a Class (cont.) • Every Java class must extend another class – Time1 extends java.lang.Object – If class does not explicitly extend another class • class implicitly extends Object • Class constructor – Same name as class – Initializes instance variables of a class object – Called when program instantiates an object of that class – Can take arguments, but cannot return values – Class can have several constructors, through overloading – Class Time1 constructor(lines 12-15)

© 2003 Prentice Hall, Inc. All rights reserved. 8.4 Controlling Access to Members • Member access modifiers – Control access to class’s variables and methods – public • Variables and methods accessible to clients of the class – private • Variables and methods not accessible to clients of the class
