1 CSc 335 Inheritance Hell Inheritance Hell refers to seemingly complex and contradictory behavior by the compiler and runtime system when resolving types and methods in an inheritance hierarchy. However, through a proper understanding of how the compiler does type checking and how the runtime system works, it is possible to be able to correctly predict the behavior of even the most complex examples. First, some rules. A. Compile Time Rules: Foo 1) We can assign up the inheritance hierarchy Foo b = new Bar(); Bar g = new Goo(); Object o = new String("abc"); Container c = new JPanel(); 2) We cannot assign down the inheritance hierarchy Goo Bar Baz Bar g2 = new Foo(); // Type mismatch: cannot convert from Foo to Baz Goo b2 = new Bar(); // Type mismatch: cannot convert from Bar to Goo String str = new Object(); // Type mismatch: cannot convert from Object to String JPanel p = new Container(); // Cannot convert from Container to JPanel 3) Casting up and casting down are both okay Object anint = new Integer(4); int n = ((Integer) anint).intvalue(); System.out.println(((Object) anint).getclass()); // class.java.lang.?? 4) Casting sideways is not okay Object Integer Double Double adouble = 1.2; Integer int2 = 12; ((Integer) adouble).tostring(); // Cannot cast from Double to Integer ((Double) int2).tostring(); // Cannot cast from Integer to Double B. Runtime Rules 1) Casting sideways at runtime is not okay either Object anint = new Integer(123); Object adouble = new Double(4.56); Object obj = (Double)anInt; // Compiles, but throws a CastClassException 2) Casting below the object's runtime type is not okay. Foo f = new Bar(); // Compiles, but this is a Runtime error: Bar cannot be cast to Goo ((Goo)f).one(); // Assume Bar and Goo both have method one()
2 Recommended Process for Answering Inheritance Heck Questions Here is a recommended process that should help derive the correct answers. 1) First consider how the compiler will react a. If, based on the compile-time type of the variable, can we cast that type to that type (if there is a cast involved)? b. And, once we do that cast, does that class type have a.method() method, either directly, or inherited from one of its superclasses, found by traversing up the inheritance tree? If yes to both, the code compiles. If either fails, write CE for CompileTime Error 2) If the message compiles consider the following that could happen at runtime a. Based on the run-time type, which is the type of the actual object rather than the type into which it is stored, can that object be cast to the variable's class type? If yes, some message will be sent (code will run). Otherwise write RE for Runtime Error. The only time the answer would be "no" at runtime would be if you try to cast too far down the tree. 3) If there is no CE or RE, determine the output (answers can be selected from the table): The Java runtime starts with the run-time type. It finds which version of the method it should use by traversing back up the inheritance tree. It will always find the method, eventually. For static methods, the Java runtime starts with the compile-time type. Thus, the specific static method is figured out entirely by the compiler (there is no dynamic binding needed). Examples: Math.sqrt(double) or Integer.parseInt(String) Here is an example hierarchy with many example problems that follow. Each method simply prints out its method name as shown to the right of each method heading. Some methods concatenate other method calls.
3 Object +tostring() + method1() "C1 M1" + method2() "C1 M2" + staticmethod() "C1 Static" +method2() "C2 M2" + method1() +method3() super.method2() + "C2 M3" +tostring() +staticmethod() "C2 ts" "C2 Static" +method2() "C4 M2" +method3() method1() + "C4 M3" +method1() "C3 M1" +method3() "C3 M3" Assume the four reference variables have been initialized for the questions that follow var1 = new (); var2 = new (); var3 = new (); Object var4 = new (); Write Compiletime error, Runtime error, or the output if no errors /*1*/ var1.method1(); // C1 M1 Answer /*1*/: First, we determine var1 is of type at compile-time type and has a method1(), so it compiles. Then it executes at runtime (no casting errors). It looks at the run-time type () and traverses up the tree looking for the first class with the method and calls the first one it finds. In this case, it looks at and there is no method1() defined in, so it traverses up the tree (from to ) and looks at to see if it has a method1() which it does, so it executes that method.
4 Recall the class hierarchy: /*2*/ var2.method1(); // C1 M1 /*3*/ var3.method1(); // C3 M1 has a method1 /*4*/ var4.method1(); // Compiletime Error Answer /*4*/ First, we determine if var4 is of type Object (the compiler treats it as such), and since that class does not have a method1() it does not compile, and is considered a Compiletime Error. /*5*/ var1.method2(); // C2 M2 / C1 M1 /*6*/ var2.method2(); // C4 M2 /*7*/ var4.method2(); // Compiletime Error /*8*/ var1.method3(); // Compiletime Error /*9*/ var2.method3(); // Compiletime Error /*10*/ var3.method3(); // C3 M3 /*11*/ var4.method3(); // Compiletime Error /*12*/ System.out.println(var1); // C2 ts /*13*/ System.out.println(var2); First looks at to see if there is a tostring( ) method. Then, looks at to see if it has a tostring( ). It finds that it does not and looks in the Object class finds that it has one and executes the method. Object
5 /*14*/ ()var1.method3(); // Compiletime Error Answer: First, we determine var1 is of type which does not have a method3() so it does not compile. The cast is not explicit, so the compiler still treats var1 as a object. /*15*/ (()var2).method2(); // Runtime Error Answer: First, we determine the compile-time type of var2 () and then determine that this cast to this type to is legal. has a method2( ), so it compiles. Then considering the run-time type of var2 (), can we cast to? Since we cannot cast a to a, this is a Runtime Error and the method is not called on the object. /*16*/ (()var2).method2(); // C4 M2 Answer: First, we determine the compile-time type of the expression to the left of the period:. has a method2( ), so it compiles. Then at runtime, there are no casting errors because a run-time type can be cast to. It then starts from the run-time type, traversing up the tree looking for the first class with the method and calls the first one it finds. In this case, it looks at and there is a method2( ) defined there. /*17*/ (()var4).method1(); // Runtime Error Answer: var4 has a run-time type of. So this cast requests a cast downward, which is not allowed. /*18*/ (()var3).method2(); // C2 M2 / C3 M1 /*19*/ (()var1).method3(); // C1 M2 / C2 M3 /*20*/ System.out.println(()var1); // C2 ts Answer: This one compiles because it looks at var1, determines it is a legal cast and treats the argument to println as a object. Since has a tostring() method, it compiles. At runtime, the expression has a run-time type of, so it uses its method. /*21*/ System.out.println(()var1);// Runtime Error Answer: This one fails at runtime because it looks at var1, determines it is a legal cast (the compiler treats var1 as a object). The cast treats the argument as a object. Since inherits a tostring( ) method (all objects do), this line compiles. At runtime, it then determines that var1 has a run-time type of, which cannot be cast to (this is called a cross cast, and is disallowed in Java).
6 Note: There will be no static method questions on the test, you may skip this last pass /*22*/ var1.staticmethod(); // C1 Static Answer: Static methods (and fields) are treated quite differently in Java. The compiler figures out everything at compile time. Here, var1 has a compile-time type of, so its static method is used. Note that the run-time type of var1 () is not important, nor is it relevant that has its own staticmethod(). /*23*/ var2.staticmethod(); // C1 Static Answer: var3 has a compiler type of, so the same staticmethod() is used here. /*24*/ var3.staticmethod(); // C2 Static Answer: var3 has a compile-time type of, which has its own staticmethod(). /*25*/ var4.staticmethod(); // Compiletime Error Answer: var4 has a compile-time type of Object, which has no staticmethod(). (The fact that its run-time type is, which does have a staticmethod() is not relevant.) /*26*/ (()var1).staticmethod(); // C2 Static /*27*/ (()var1).staticmethod(); // Runtime Error Answer: var1 has a compile-time type of, which can sometimes be cast to, which has a staticmethod(), so everything is fine at compile-time. In fact, the compiler notes that s staticmethod() is to be used. At runtime, var1 has a runtime type of, which cannot be cast to (as it would be a cross-cast). So the problem is with the cast, not the call to the static method. /*28*/ ((Object)var1).staticmethod(); // Compiletime Error Answer: You tell me! var1 has a type of, which has a staticmethod(). So why does this generate a compiler error. (Hint: run-time or compile-time type? Does that even matter?)
