Java default constructor
In Java, a default constructor is a constructor that is automatically generated by the compiler if no other constructors are defined in a class.
A default constructor has no parameters and no implementation. It simply calls the superclass constructor with no arguments.
Here is an example of a class with a default constructor:
public class MyClass {
// No constructors are defined, so a default constructor is generated by the compiler
}
This class has a default constructor that looks like this:
public MyClass() {
super();
}
If you define any other constructors in the class, the default constructor will not be generated by the compiler.
For example, if you define a constructor with parameters in the MyClass
class:
public class MyClass {
private String name;
public MyClass(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
}
The default constructor will not be generated, and you will not be able to call the default constructor using the new MyClass()
syntax.
