collection of fields;</p></li><li><p>a collection of methods;</p></li><li><p>initial value expressions for the fields; and</p></li><li><p>initialization variables that are bound to initialization
|
|
arguments.</p></li></ul><p>In the context of the class system, an <span style="font-style: italic">object</span> is a
|
|
collection of bindings for fields that are instantiated according to a
|
|
class description.</p><p>The class system allows a program to define a new class (a
|
|
<a name="(tech._derived._clas)"></a><span style="font-style: italic">derived class</span>) in terms of an existing class (the
|
|
<a name="(tech._superclas)"></a><span style="font-style: italic">superclass</span>) using inheritance, overriding, and augmenting:</p><ul><li><p><a name="(tech._inheritance)"></a><span style="font-style: italic">inheritance</span>: An object of a derived class supports
|
|
methods and instantiates fields declared by the derived class’s
|
|
superclass, as well as methods and fields declared in the derived
|
|
class expression.</p></li><li><p><a name="(tech._overriding)"></a><span style="font-style: italic">overriding</span>: Some methods declared in a superclass can
|
|
be replaced in the derived class. References to the overridden method
|
|
in the superclass use the implementation in the derived class.</p></li><li><p><a name="(tech._augmenting)"></a><span style="font-style: italic">augmenting</span>: Some methods declared in a superclass can
|
|
be merely extended in the derived class. The superclass method
|
|
specifically delegates to the augmenting method in the derived class.</p></li></ul><p>An <a name="(tech._interface)"></a><span style="font-style: italic">interface</span> is a collection of method names to be
|
|
implemented by a class, combined with a derivation requirement. A
|
|
class <a name="(tech._implement)"></a><span style="font-style: italic">implements</span> an interface when it</p><ul><li><p>declares (or inherits) a public method for each variable in the
|
|
interface;</p></li><li><p>is derived from the class required by the interface, if any; and</p></li><li><p>specifically declares its intention to implement the interface.</p></li></ul><p>A class can implement any number of interfaces. A derived class
|
|
automatically implements any interface that its superclass
|
|
implements. Each class also implements an implicitly-defined interface
|
|
that is associated with the class. The implicitly-defined interface
|
|
contains all of the class’s public method names, and it requires that
|
|
all other implementations of the interface are derived from the class.</p><p>A new interface can <a name="(tech._extend)"></a><span style="font-style: italic">extend</span> one or more interfaces with
|
|
additional method names; each class that implements the extended
|
|
interface also implements the original interfaces. The derivation
|
|
requirements of the original interface must be consistent, and the
|
|
extended interface inherits the most specific derivation requirement
|
|
from the original interfaces.</p><p>Classes, objects, and interfaces are all values. However, a class or
|
|
interface is not an object (i.e., there are no “meta-classes” or
|
|
“meta-interfaces”).</p><table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="createinterface.html" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.1<span class="hspace"> </span>Creating Interfaces</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="createclass.html" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.2<span class="hspace"> </span>Creating Classes</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="createclass.html#%28part._clinitvars%29" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.2.1<span class="hspace"> </span>Initialization Variables</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="createclass.html#%28part._clfields%29" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.2.2<span class="hspace"> </span>Fields</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="createclass.html#%28part._clmethods%29" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.2.3<span class="hspace"> </span>Methods</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="createclass.html#%28part._clmethoddefs%29" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.2.3.1<span class="hspace"> </span>Method Definitions</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="createclass.html#%28part._classinherit%29" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.2.3.2<span class="hspace"> </span>Inherited and Superclass Methods</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="createclass.html#%28part._extnames%29" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.2.3.3<span class="hspace"> </span>Internal and External Names</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="objcreation.html" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.3<span class="hspace"> </span>Creating Objects</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="ivaraccess.html" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.4<span class="hspace"> </span>Field and Method Access</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="ivaraccess.html#%28part._methodcalls%29" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.4.1<span class="hspace"> </span>Methods</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="ivaraccess.html#%28part._.Fields%29" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.4.2<span class="hspace"> </span>Fields</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="ivaraccess.html#%28part._.Generics%29" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.4.3<span class="hspace"> </span>Generics</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="mixins.html" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.5<span class="hspace"> </span>Mixins</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="trait.html" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.6<span class="hspace"> </span>Traits</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="Object_and_Class_Contracts.html" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.7<span class="hspace"> </span>Object and Class Contracts</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="objectequality.html" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.8<span class="hspace"> </span>Object Equality and Hashing</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="objectserialize.html" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.9<span class="hspace"> </span>Object Serialization</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="objectprinting.html" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.10<span class="hspace"> </span>Object Printing</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="objectutils.html" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.11<span class="hspace"> </span>Object, Class, and Interface Utilities</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><span class="hspace"> </span><a href="Surrogates.html" class="toclink" data-pltdoc="x">6.12<span class="hspace"> </span>Surrogates</a></p></td></tr></table><div class="navsetbottom"><span class="navleft"><form class="searchform"><input class="searchbox" id="searchbox" type="text" tabindex="1" placeholder="...search manuals..." title="Enter a search string to search the manuals" onkeypress="return DoSearchKey(event, this, "8.6", "../");"/></form> <a href="https://docs.racket-lang.org/index.html" title="up to the documentation top" data-pltdoc="x" onclick="return GotoPLTRoot("8.6");">top</a><span class="tocsettoggle"> <a href="javascript:void(0);" title="show/hide table of contents" onclick="TocsetToggle();">contents</a></span></span><span class="navright"> <a href="structinfo.html" title="backward to "5.7 Structure Type Transformer Binding"" data-pltdoc="x">← prev</a> <a href="index.html" title="up to "The Racket Reference"" data-pltdoc="x">up</a> <a href="createinterface.html" title="forward to "6.1 Creating Interfaces"" data-pltdoc="x">next →</a></span> </div></div></div><div id="contextindicator"> </div></body></html> |
