Implementing the Standard Methods

• In implementing several kernel interfaces so far, you have been given code in the
skeletons for the Standard methods
• The code for these methods is very stylized and easy to adapt to a new situation, even if the code itself is hardly transparent!
– Several new Java issues arise …

newInstance TF newInstance()
• Returns a new object with the same dynamic type as this, having an initial value. If the type TF has a no-argument constructor, then the value of the new returned object satisfies its contract. Otherwise, the value of the new returned object satisfies the contract of the constructor call that was used to initialize this.
• Ensures:
is_initial(newInstance) 27 February 2019 OSU CSE

newInstance TF newInstance()

Throughout this set of returned object satisfies the contract of the
slides, TF stands for the constructor call that was used to initialize this.

newInstance
TF newInstance()
• Returns a new object with the same dynamic type as this, having an initial value. If the type TF has a no-argument constructor, then the value of the new returned object satisfies its contract. Otherwise, the value of the new returned object satisfies the contract of the constructor call that was used to initialize this.
• Ensures:
is_initial(newInstance) 27 February 2019 OSU CSE
So, is_initial means what it says above…

Implementing newInstance
• Java already offers a method to make a new instance that is “like” an existing object, but it is messy to call it
• The reason for the Standard method newInstance is simply to make it easy to
call Java’s method for doing this, by wrapping the mess inside a method body
• The same code works for any type, so you can just copy the code that follows

clear void clear()

constructor call that was used to initialize #this.

void clear()
clears means what it says
above, i.e., is_initial is
true for that parameter.
• Resets this to an initial value. If the type
TF has a no-argument constructor, then thissatisfiesitscontract. Otherwise, this satisfies the contract of the
constructor call that was used to initialize #this.

27 February 2019 OSU CSE
So, the parameter mode

Implementing clear
• Because this code has to do the same thing as the no-argument (or maybe some other) constructor, it is a good idea to factor out the code that initializes the instance variables into a separate private method
• For the no-argument constructor (usual case):
private void createNewRep() {
// initialize instance variables
27 February 2019 OSU CSE 14

Code for createNewRep • Again, code from Queue2 is shown:
private void createNewRep() { this.preFront = new Node(); this.preFront.next = null; this.rear = this.preFront; this.length = 0;
27 February 2019 OSU CSE

Code for clear
public final void clear() {
this.createNewRep(); }
27 February 2019 OSU CSE

Code for clear
public final void clear() {
this.createNewRep();
If there isn’t a no-argument constructor, then createNewRep
needs some parameters (like a constructor with parameters); see a SortingMachine implementation for an example.

transferFrom void transferFrom(TF source)
• Sets this to the incoming value of source, and resets source to an initial value; source must have thesamedynamictypeasthis. IfthetypeTFhasa no-argument constructor, then source satisfies its contract. Otherwise,sourcesatisfiesthecontractof the constructor call that was used to initialize #source.
• Replaces:this
• Clears:source
• Ensures:
this = #source 27 February 2019

Implementing transferFrom • This code simply copies the values of all
the instance variables from source to this, and then re-initializes source
– For an instance variable of a reference type, the reference value is copied—but aliases are eliminated before transferFrom returns

Because of a problem in Java called type erasure, you can check

Code (Pt 2) for transferFrom @Override
public final void transferFrom(Queue source)
Queue2 localSource = (Queue2) source; this.preFront = localSource.preFront; this.rear = localSource.rear;

public final void transferFrom(Queue source)
Queue2 localSource = (Queue2) source;
this.preFront = localSource.preFront;
this.rear = localSource.rear;
this.length = localSource.length;
This cast cannot fail since the assert
localSource.createNewRep();
27 February 2019
above would have stopped execution in that case; so, source must be of dynamic type Queue2, and the ? must be T or the call would not have compiled.

The Cast and Why It Works Here
The compiler thinks things look like this
picture because of the declared types of this and source, shown below.

The initialization of localSource claims

that the dynamic type of source is Queue2, as shown here—and it is!
