  2. Reference (C++) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_(C++)

    In the C++ programming language, a reference is a simple reference datatype that is less powerful but safer than the pointer type inherited from C. The name C++ reference may cause confusion, as in computer science a reference is a general concept datatype, with pointers and C++ references being specific reference datatype implementations.

  3. Type signature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_signature

    And in the disassembled bytecode, it takes the form of Lsome / package / Main / main:([Ljava / lang / String;) V. The method signature for the main() method contains three modifiers: public indicates that the main method can be called by any object. static indicates that the main method is a class method. void indicates that the main method has ...

  4. Null object pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null_object_pattern

    In object-oriented computer programming, a null object is an object with no referenced value or with defined neutral (null) behavior.The null object design pattern, which describes the uses of such objects and their behavior (or lack thereof), was first published as "Void Value" [1] and later in the Pattern Languages of Program Design book series as "Null Object".

  5. Reference counting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_counting

    [citation needed] However, if the compiler (or runtime system) knows that a particular object has only one reference (as most do in many systems), and that the reference is lost at the same time that a similar new object is created (as in the string append statement str ← str + "a"), it can replace the operation with a mutation on the ...

  6. Function overloading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_overloading

    In C++, default constructors take no parameters, instantiating the object members with their appropriate default values, "which is normally zero for numeral fields and empty string for string fields". [11] For example, a default constructor for a restaurant bill object written in C++ might set the tip to 15%:

  7. Constructor (object-oriented programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructor_(object...

    When an object is declared in a parameterized constructor, the initial values have to be passed as arguments to the constructor function. The normal way of object declaration may not work. The constructors can be called explicitly or implicitly. The method of calling the constructor implicitly is also called the shorthand method.

  8. Identity (object-oriented programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identity_(object-oriented...

    A reference can be used to refer to an object with a specific identity. A reference contains the information that is necessary for the identity property to be realized in the programming language, and allows access to the object with the identity. A type of a target of a reference is a role. Typically, references are isomorphic to memory addresses.

  9. Object copying - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_copying

    One method of copying an object is the shallow copy.In that case a new object B is created, and the fields values of A are copied over to B. [3] [4] [5] This is also known as a field-by-field copy, [6] [7] [8] field-for-field copy, or field copy. [9]
