A constructor is a special method used to initialize objects in java.
we use constructors to initialize all variables in the class
when an object is created. As and when an object
is created it is initialized automatically with the help of
constructor in java.
We have two types of constructors:
Default Constructor
Parameterized Constructor
public classname(){
}
public classname(parameters list){
}Constructors are the special methods without any return type.
Constructors have the same name with the className
Constructors are special methods, which are called
whenever the new keyword is used to create an object of a class
By default every class always has a default constructor
with no parameters. This default constructor is no longer there if a
constructor is created manually
Constructors usually act to initialize instance variables or perform
actions that need to be taken whenever an object of a class is created.
Like methods, constructors can also be overloaded.
The same rules apply. This is done by providing a constructor with
with a different parameters
this() can be used to call the overloaded
constructors with other parameters
Line::Line( double len): length(len) {
cout << "Object is being created, length = " << len << endl;
}
