Advanced Java interview questions

1.In Java, what is the difference between an Interface and an Abstract class?

A: An Abstract class declares have at least one instance method that is declared abstract which will be implemented by the subclasses. An abstract class can have instance methods that implement a default behavior. An Interface can only declare constants and instance methods, but cannot implement default behavior.

2. Can you have virtual functions in Java? Yes or No. If yes, then what are virtual functions?

A: Yes, Java class functions are virtual by default. Virtual functions are functions of subclasses that can be invoked from a reference to their superclass. In other words, the functions of the actual object are called when a function is invoked on the reference to that object.

3.Write a function to reverse a linked list p in C++?

A:

Link* reverse_list(Link* p)
{
if (p == NULL)
return NULL;

Link* h = p;
p = p->next;
h->next = NULL;
while (p != null)
{
Link* t = p->next;
p->next = h;
h = p;
p = t;
}

return h;
}

4.In C++, what is the usefulness of Virtual destructors?

A:Virtual destructors are neccessary to reclaim memory that were allocated for objects in the class hierarchy. If a pointer to a base class object is deleted, then the compiler guarantees the various subclass destructors are called in reverse order of the object construction chain.

5.What are mutex and semaphore? What is the difference between them?

A:A mutex is a synchronization object that allows only one process or thread to access a critical code block. A semaphore on the other hand allows one or more processes or threads to access a critial code block. A semaphore is a multiple mutex
