Differences between PrintJob classes

where are the differences between Toolkit.getPrintJob() // PageAttributes/JobAttributes and java.awt.print.PrintJob.getPrintJob() and Printable interface ??
I notice that all posts and also the tutorial use the second option for printing.. but there's also the first..

Visual Attributes are only for the visual representation of your items, buttons, blocks, canvas, ...
Property Classes are for inheriting all objects including visual attributes.
If you create a style guide for your company, then first define the visual attributes for the look and feel. After that create property classes for all of the other objects in your application. On top of that create object groups, where you centralize your property classes and visual attributes.
If you have created such a form, then call this form reference-template. Now you inherit the object-groups to a second form and call this form "template".
If you create new forms, copy the template and rename it. Then you have in all your forms inherited visual attributes, property classes, etc. and all this stuff is in one "reference-template"
try it

What is the difference between document class and normal class

Hi,
Please let me know what is the difference between document class and normal class.
And I have no idea which class should call as document class or call as an object.
Thanks
-Actionscript Developer

the document class is invoked immediately when your swf opens. the document class must subclass the sprite or movieclip class.
all other classes are invoked explicitly with code and need not subclass any other class.

Difference between Abstract Classes Vs Interface

Hi,
Can u pls mention all the differences between Abstract Classes and Interface.? I've mentioned the differences I've known here.
Known Differences:
(*) An interface cannot implement any methods, whereas an abstract class can.
(*) A class can implement many interfaces but can have only one superclass
Can U pls mention at what situation(practical situation) we've to go for abstract class or Interface?
Tell me the situation when we have to go for abstract class?
Tell me the situation when we have to go for interface?
Please Reply me
Thanks & Regards

There are more differences, and one really important is that abstract classes can also define class variables, while interfaces cannot. I think the question of when to use interfaces or abstract classes is not always easy to answer, but yourself have pointed some tips you should be aware of :
If you need that some funcionality of the class is derived by more than one "parent" then you should use interfaces, since you cannot extend more than one class.
If your "superclass" needs to define some class variables then the choice must be made to have a superclass and then extend it. Also this is applicable if there is a method that can be programmed at a higher level (in interfaces you cannot program methods).
But the answer to the question is still not easy. And remember, you can always mix both tipes, you can extend one class and implement some interfaces.
Examples or that are very common in the Java API for AWT or Swing components, for example javax.swing.JLabel extends javax.swing.JComponent (that is beacuse a JLabel IS a JComponent and it uses some variables and methods programmed at the JComponent "level") and it also implements some interfaces: Accessible, ImageObserver, MenuContainer, Serializable & SwingConstants.
I hope this helps.

What is the difference between Abstract class and Interface ?

Hi,
Could u plz tell me the difference between Abstract class and Interface?
Thanks in advance.

Lots.
An abstract class can contain some method implementations, or indeed all the method implementations. It may contain methods with all the various access modifiers. It cannot be instantiated. A class may inherit from only a single abstract class.
An interface contains only public method stubs and constants. A class may implement multiple interfaces. An interface cannot (obviously) be instantiated.
Abstract classes are particularly useful when you need to provide a semi-complete implementation for reuse. Interfaces are used more like types.
Look at java.util.* for some good examples of the use of both.

Difference between Abstarct Class and Interface

HI,
Here is a simple one for the gurus but quite important for me.
What is the difference b/w an Interface and an abstract class?
Why do we need each one of them?
I would appreciate if you people can give examples of each so that I amy understand fully
Thanks in advance...

A normal class (not abstract) has a special behaviour, like java.awt.Frame. A Frame is a frame no matter how you subclass it. If you create a subclass it will still be able to be displayed by calling it's show method. So by using a normal class you can create a type of class.
An abstract class does the same, but it leaves some of the code unwritten. For instance java.lang.Number. This class is abstract becuase it has no knowledge of how to store the number in memory. But it knows that it is a number, and any subclass will still be a number. You could create a subclass of Number that can hold the time in milliseconds and checks your system clock to see what the time is, it could also have methods that return the time in another country, but it would still be just a Number.
An interface is a way to describe what an object can do, not what it is. So with java.lang.Comparable as an example you can make any class comparable. This means that no matter what type of object you have, it can be compared with other objects. So you can have a subclass of Frame that can be compared with other windows. Or a subclass of Number that can be compared with other Numbers. You can even compare those two different types if you like. So you could compare a window with a number.
That is the difference between abstract classes and interfaces.
I hope you could follow my arguments, it isn't an easy subject,

What's the difference between batch class type 022 and 023?

Hi Guys,
I find that some of my SAP client only have class 022 and some have 023, but no client has them all. I don't know why it happed.
So what's the difference between batch class type 022 and 023? Which setting decide which class to be used ?
Thanks.

Hi nitin,
Read http://www.sapfans.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=212819&highlight=022 you will know the difference between 022 and 023 .
Use tcode OMCT you can switch batch level .

The difference between batch class type 022 and 023

what's difference between batch class type 022 and 023? 023 is described as standard batch class type, but there is only 022 type exists in my system. can i use 022?

Hi,
both classes mean the same, but which class is used is decieded by batch level. In case of material level or client level the system use automatically only class 023. If you define batch level to plant the system use automatically class 022.

Abhee.

Difference between abstract classes and interfaces

I actually wonder about what are the differences between abstract classes and interfaces may somebody give an example code about it?
and i have one more question how can i use interfaces like multiple inheritance ? i mean when i implement an interface like
class a extends b implements c,di have to use all c and d methods but what that methods means?
I mean as i know we cannot make implementations of methods in interfaces
but for example in runnable interface there is a method like run() and it has been defined somewhere because it knows what to do(i mean when it will run), i just write my code into that method .

Once you get past the starting point (I am referring to the OP here), there are a few salient differences:
You can only extend (or generalize) a single superclass; however, you can implement (or realize) multiple interfaces. As such, all things being equal, using an interface in lieu of an abstract class 'frees' your design. Later, if you want the implementor of an interface to inherit from another class, there is not issue.
Any abstract method specifies a contract. However, abstract classes allow you to also add common behavior to subclasses. This is an overused justification for abstract classes, IMO. You can achieve the same effect using delegation and still having interfaces.
Always program to interfaces wherever possible. This means that you define an interface and have an implementing class (usually at a minimum). Do not do this for all your classes, but rather the ones that make your system unique (the domain model or M in MVC architecture). This allows you to later change implementation with a minimal amount of refactoring. This is a core precept from the Group of Four and any number of decent programming books.Best of luck.

Difference between Material Class and Batch Class

Hi!
What is the difference between Material Class and Batch Class?
and how can we use these classes?

Iam not sure but i think
1) Material class for sorting purpose
2) Batch Class for Batch Management

Differences between Robot class generated events and real input events

Hello everyone!
I'm having a problem with the translation of the description of the awt.Robot class.
- "This class is used to generate native system input events" -
Does this mean there is no difference between real input events and generated events from the Robot class? Difference in reference to that the generated events can't be recognized as generated events by the os or programs.
Thanks in advance.
Chris B.

The Robot class will use an interface provided by the operating system to inject events. Those are very close to 'real' input events, but not quite there. There are, for instance, several games out there which have a protection mechanism against Robot's events to prevent scripting/botting. However, any application that is not paying special attention to the event's source will assume that the input events generated by Robot are actually coming from the user, so you can 'control' any application with the exception of the beforementioned games.

Difference between ArrayList class and LinkedList class

I would like to ask what is the difference between the ArrayList class and the LinkedList class? If I use ArrayList class can I have a fixed size?
Thank you for your answers.

I often use LinkedList when I need a FIFO. When all you're doing is adding to the end of a list and removing the first element, it is definitely faster. Here's a quick SSCCE I wrote up to demonstrate:import java.util.*;
public class ListTest {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      LinkedList<Integer> linked = new LinkedList<Integer>();
      ArrayList<Integer> array = new ArrayList<Integer>();
      Integer[] values = new Integer[2500000];
      for (int i = 0; i < values.length; i++) {
         values[i] = new Integer(i);
      Random rand = new Random();
      boolean[] randDir = new boolean[values.length];
      for (int i = 0; i < randDir.length; i++) {
         randDir[i] = rand.nextBoolean();
      long startTime, endTime;
      startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
      for (int i = 0; i < values.length; i++) {
         if (linked.size() > 0 && randDir) {
linked.removeFirst();
else {
linked.addLast(values[i]);
endTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
linked.clear();
System.out.println("linked:"+(endTime-startTime));
startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
for (int i = 0; i < values.length; i++) {
if (array.size() > 0 && randDir[i]) {
array.remove(0);
else {
array.add(values[i]);
endTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
System.out.println("array:"+(endTime-startTime));
array.clear();

Difference between static class and singleton?

Hi I wonder what could be the difference between static methods and singleton?
In singleton at any point of time there will be only one object existing in the JVM. We create singleton to avoid multiple object creation for that class.
If I make all the methods in the class as static also it does the same job. The memory will be allocated once. Even there wont be any object in this case, so time required for object creation also can be saved. looks like more efficient but still why need singleton?
This question is also posted in java programming forum. The thread is as follows:-

Difference between Java class and JavaBean?

What is the difference between a Java class and a JavaBean?
A class has variables which hold state.
A class has methods which can do things (like change state).
And if I understand a JavaBean it is rather like a BIG class...
i.e.
A JavaBean has variables which hold state.
A JavaBean has methods which can do things (like change state).
So, what's the difference between the two?
And in case it helps...What is the crossover point between the two? Is there a minimalist type JavaBean which is the same as a class? What is the difference between Java beans and Enterprise Java Beans?
Thanks.

Introspection, as I understand it is a bunch of
methods which allows me to ask what a class can do
etc. right? So, if I implement a bunch of
introspection methods for my class then my class
becomes a JavaBean?Introspection allows a builder tool to discover a Bean's properties, methods, and events, either by:
Following design patterns when naming Bean features which the Introspector class examines for these design patterns to discover Bean features.
By explicitly providing the information with a related Bean Information class (which implements the BeanInfo interface).
I understand now they are completely different.
Thanks. Very clear.
I do not understand how they are completely different.
In fact I don't have a clue what the differences are
other than to quote what you have written. In your
own words, what is the difference? This is the "New
to Java Technology" forum ;-) and I'm new to these
things.In that case ejbs are way too advanced for you, so don't worry about it.
