what's an abstract class in java code example
Example 1: abstract class example in java
abstract class Animal{
public abstract void sound();
}
public class Dog extends Animal{
public void sound(){
System.out.println("Woof");
}
public static void main(String args[]){
Animal obj = new Dog();
obj.sound();
}
}
Example 2: abstraction class
Sometimes we may come across a situation
where we cannot provide implementation to
all the methods in a class. We want to leave the
implementation to a class that extends it.
In that case we declare a class
as abstract by using abstract keyword on method
signature.In my framework I have created my
PageBase class as super
class of the all page classes.
I have collected all common elements
and functions into PageBase class and
all other page classes extent PageBase class.
By doing so, I don't have to locate very
common WebElements and it provides
reusability in my framework.
Also
1)Abstract classes cannot be instantiated
2)An abstarct classes contains abstract method,
concrete methods or both.
3)Any class which extends abstarct class must
override all methods of abstract class
4)An abstarct class can contain either
0 or more abstract method.
Example 3: can abstract class have implementation java
abstract classes have no implementation of functions methods inside it which declared as abstract methods. classes which are inheriting it have to overriden it. and final absract class can not be overriden
