Types of Comments in Java

💬 Single-Line

Used for brief explanations

📝 Multi-Line

Comment Examples and Best Practices

// Good: Explains why, not what
// Calculate compound interest for loan processing
double interest = principal * rate * time;

/* 
 * Bad example - obvious comment
 * This adds 1 to count
 */
count++; // Don't do this!

/**
 * Calculates the monthly payment for a loan
 * @param principal The loan amount in rupees
 * @param rate Annual interest rate (as decimal)
 * @param years Loan term in years
 * @return Monthly payment amount
 */

                    / (Math.pow(1 + monthlyRate, totalMonths) - 1);

Execution Process Details

🚀 Runtime Steps

Class Loading
- JVM loads .class files
- Bootstrap, Extension, System classloaders
Linking
- Verification: Bytecode security check
- Preparation: Static variable memory allocation
- Resolution: Symbolic references to direct references
Initialization
- Static variables initialized
- Static blocks executed
Execution
- main() method called
- JIT compilation for performance

🔍 Memory Management: JVM automatically handles memory allocation and garbage collection during execution.

        System.out.println("Processing " + inputFile);
        System.out.println("Output to " + outputFile);
    }
}

Calculator Application:

public class Calculator {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        if (args.length != 3) {

            String operator = args[1];
            double num2 = Double.parseDouble(args[2]);
            
            double result = switch (operator) {
                case "+" -> num1 + num2;
                case "-" -> num1 - num2;
                case "*" -> num1 * num2;

Import Statements and CLASSPATH

📚 Import Statement Types

🔍 Import Categories

Single Type Import:

import java.util.Scanner;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.time.LocalDate;

On-Demand Import:

import java.util.*;  // All classes in util package
import java.io.*;    // All classes in io package

Static Import:

import static java.lang.Math.PI;
import static java.lang.Math.sqrt;
import static java.lang.System.out;

// Now can use directly
double area = PI * radius * radius;
double hypotenuse = sqrt(a*a + b*b);
out.println("Result: " + result);

⚡ Import Best Practices

Prefer specific imports over wildcard
Avoid unused imports (IDE warnings)
Group related imports logically
Use static imports sparingly

Well-Organized Imports:

package edu.gtu.ict.students;

// Standard library imports
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Collections;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Scanner;

// Third-party library imports
import org.apache.commons.lang3.StringUtils;

// Static imports (if needed)
import static java.lang.Math.PI;
import static java.lang.System.out;

public class ImportExample {
    // Class implementation
}

🛤️ Understanding CLASSPATH

# Set classpath for compilation
javac -cp "lib/commons-lang3-3.12.jar:." StudentManager.java

# Set classpath for execution
java -cp "lib/commons-lang3-3.12.jar:." StudentManager

# Using environment variable (Windows)
set CLASSPATH=lib\commons-lang3-3.12.jar;.
javac StudentManager.java
java StudentManager

# Using environment variable (Linux/Mac)
export CLASSPATH=lib/commons-lang3-3.12.jar:.
javac StudentManager.java
java StudentManager

Troubleshooting Common Issues

❌ Class Name Mismatch Error

Error Message:

error: class HelloWorld is public, should be declared in a file named HelloWorld.java

Problem:

// File: Welcome.java
public class HelloWorld {  // ❌ Class name doesn't match filename
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello World!");
    }
}

Solutions:

Rename file to match class: HelloWorld.java
Or rename class to match file: public class Welcome
Or remove public modifier: class HelloWorld

❌ Package Declaration Issues

Error Message:

error: package edu.gtu.ict does not exist

Problem & Solution:

// ❌ Wrong: File in wrong directory
package edu.gtu.ict;  // But file is in root directory

// ✅ Correct: Create proper directory structure
src/
└── edu/
    └── gtu/
        └── ict/
            └── Student.java

Compilation:

# Compile from src directory
javac edu/gtu/ict/Student.java

# Or use -d option
javac -d . edu/gtu/ict/Student.java

❌ Main Method Not Found

Error Message:

Error: Main method not found in class Test

Common Problems:

// ❌ Wrong signature variations
public void main(String[] args) { }        // Missing static
static void main(String[] args) { }        // Missing public
public static void main(String args) { }   // Wrong parameter type
public static int main(String[] args) { }  // Wrong return type

// ✅ Correct signature
public static void main(String[] args) {
    System.out.println("This works!");
}

❌ Import and CLASSPATH Issues

Error Message:

error: package com.external does not exist

Diagnosis Steps:

Check if library JAR exists
Verify CLASSPATH includes the JAR
Confirm package name spelling
Ensure JAR contains the package

Solution Example:

# List contents of JAR file
jar -tf external-lib.jar

# Compile with explicit classpath
javac -cp "external-lib.jar:." MyClass.java

# Run with explicit classpath
java -cp "external-lib.jar:." MyClass

Debugging Tips

🔍 Common Issues

Compilation Problems:

Check file name vs class name
Verify proper syntax
Look for missing semicolons
Check brace matching

Runtime Problems:

Ensure main method signature is correct
Check classpath issues
Verify input/output operations

🛠️ Debugging Strategies

Step-by-Step Approach:

Read error messages carefully
Identify line numbers
Check syntax at error location
Use print statements for debugging
Comment out problematic code

Tools:

IDE debugger
System.out.println() statements
Stack trace analysis
Code review with peers

💡 Pro Tip: Always read error messages completely - they often tell you exactly what's wrong!
