1).what is the difference between below examples

String s="vijay";

String s=new String("vijay");

Answer Posted / ravi

Guys please don't miss guide.

Karun you r absolutely right, but there is one big
difference between them

String s="vijay"; --> This is string literal

String s=new String("vijay"); --> String Object

Definitely first one gives the better performance than
second one, why because..

JVM maintains an internal list of references for interned
Strings( POOL of unique strings) to avoid duplicate string
objects in heap memory. when ever the JVM loads string
literals from class file and executes, it checks whether
that string exists in the internal list or not. If it is
already exists in the list then it does not create new
string and it uses the references to the existing String
object. JVM does this type by checking tinternally for
string literal but not for string object which it creates
through 'new' keyword

You can explicitly force the JVM todo this type of checking
for string objects which are created through 'new' keyword
using "String.intern()" method. This forces the JVM to check
the internal list and use the existing String object if it
is already present.

Question 5 [15] Consider the following classes, illustrating the Strategy design pattern: import java.awt.*; abstract class Text { protected TextApplet tA; protected Text(TextApplet tApplet) { tA = tApplet; } abstract public void draw(Graphics g); } class PlainText extends Text { protected PlainText(TextApplet tApplet) { super(tApplet); } public void draw(Graphics g) { g.setColor(tA.getColor()); g.setFont(new Font("Sans-serif", Font.PLAIN, 12)); g.drawString(tA.getText(), 20, 20); } } class CodeText extends Text { protected CodeText(TextApplet tApplet) { super(tApplet); } public void draw(Graphics g) { g.setColor(tA.getColor()); g.setFont(new Font("Monospaced", Font.PLAIN, 12)); g.drawString(tA.getText(), 20, 20); } } public class TextApplet extends java.applet.Applet { protected Text text; protected String textVal; protected Color color; public String getText() { return textVal; } public Color getColor() { return color; } public void init() { textVal = getParameter("text"); String textStyle = getParameter("style"); String textColor = getParameter("color"); if (textStyle == "code") text = new CodeText(this); else text = new PlainText(this); if (textColor == "red") color = Color.RED; else if (textColor == "blue") color = Color.BLUE; else color = Color.BLACK; } public void paint(Graphics g) { text.draw(g); 10 } } The Text class is more complicated than it should be (there is too much coupling between the Text and TextApplet classes). By getting rid of the reference to a TextApplet object in the Text class and setting the colour in the paint() method, one could turn the Text class into an interface and simplify the strategy classes considerably. 5.1 Rewrite the Text and PlainText classes to do what is described above. (6) 5.2 Explain the consequent changes that are necessary to the TextApplet class. (4) 5.3 Write an additional strategy class called FancyText (to go with your simplified strategy classes) to allow fancy text to be displayed for the value "fancy" provided for the style parameter. It should use the font Font ("Serif", Font.ITALIC, 12). (3) 5.4 Explain what changes are necessary to the TextApplet class for this. (2)
