Time Narration
00:03 Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on constructor overloading in java.
00:08 In this tutorial we will learn


00:10 what is constructor overloading


00:13 And to overload constructor



00:16 Here we are using
  • Ubuntu version 11.10 OS
  • Java Development kit 1.6
  • Eclipse 3.7.0


00:27 To follow this tutorial you must know


00:30 how to create constructors in java using eclipse.


00:34 If not, for relevant tutorials please visit our website which is as shown,

(http://www.spoken-tutorial.org)

00:40 What is constructor overloading?
00:43 Define multiple constructors for a class.
00:46 They must differ in number or types of parameters.
00:50 Let us now see how to overload constructor.


00:54 In eclipse, I have a class Student with two variables and a method.
01:03 Let us first create a parameterized constructor.


01:07 So type, Student within parentheses int number comma String the_name.


01:26 Within curly brackets, type roll_number is equal to number.


01:38 And name is equal to the_name


01:46 So we have a constructor with two parameters.
01:51 let us call this constructor.


01:53 So in name method type new Student parentheses semi colon
02:03 We see an error, it states that constructor Student is undefined.


02:10 This is simply because we have defined a constructor with two parameters.


02:16 And we are calling a constructor without parameters.
02:22 So we need to pass arguments.


02:25 So within parentheses type 22 comma in double quotes Ram.


02:33 We see that the error is resolved.
02:36 Let us call the method.


02:38 So before new type Student s is equal to new student.
02:45 Now using the object s recall the method studentDetail()
02:53 Save the program and Run.
02:58 We see the output 22 and Ram.
03:03 Now let us define a constructor' with no parameter.


03:07 So type, Student parentheses.


03:12 Within curly brackets roll_number is equal to 0.


03:21 And name is equal to in double quotes hypen that is no name
03:30 So now we can call the constructor with no parameters.


03:35 So type Student s1 is equal to new Student parentheses semicolon.
03:47 This time we see no error, since we have define a constructor without parameter
03:55 Then s1 dot studentDetail.
04:01 Save and Run the program.
04:04 So in the output we see zero and dash and default constructor is called.


04:11 This is constructor overloading.


04:13 We have two constructor with different parameter.


04:17 Both the constructor obviously have same name.


04:20 So depending on the type and number of parameter, the constructor is called.
04:26 Let us see the advantage of constructor overloading.


04:30 Suppose now call a constructor with two parameters.


04:35 So type Student s3= new Student();


04:51 Now within parentheses, suppose i gave the name argument first and then the roll number.
04:58 let see what happens.
04:59 So in double quotes Raju comma 45
05:08 We see an error which states that the constructor student with the parameter String comma int is undefined.
05:18 So let us define the constructor.
05:22 So type Student within parentheses String the_name comma int r_no
05:42 So over here first parameter is string and the second parameter is int'
05:52 Then Within curly bracket, roll_number' is equal to r_no.
06:05 And name is equal to the_name.
06:15 Save the program.
06:18 Now we see that the error is resolved.
06:22 Let us call the method.
06:24 So s3 dot studentDetail.
06:29 Save the program and Run
06:35 So we see the output45 and Raju
06:40 So here we see that when we call the constructor.
06:43 We do not have to worry about the parameters that we are passing.
06:47 This is simply because we have define multiple constructor with different parameters.
06:54 So the proper constructor is overloaded.
06:57 We can therefore now define a constructor which takes only one parameter.
07:02 That is roll number.
07:05 So type Student within parentheses int num.
07:16 within curly brackets roll_number is equalto num.
07:25 And name is equal to no name.
07:33 Now let us call this constructor
07:43 So type Student s4 is equalto new Student this time we will pass an single argument. So let us pass 61
08:04 Then s4 dot studentDetail
08:10 Save and Run the program
08:14 So in the output we see the roll number as 61 and name as no name.
08:21 As we can see, the proper overloaded constructor is called when new is executed.
08:27 Based upon the parameters specified the proper constructor is overloaded.
08:33 This is how constructor overloading is done.
08:40 So in this tutorial, we have learnt
08:42 About the constructor overloading.
08:45 to overload constructor and the use of constructor overloading
08:50 For self assessment, create multiple constructors for class Employeeand Overload the constructor.



08:58 To know more about the Spoken Tutorial Project
