Simple
• Java is simple programming language.
o Syntax of Java is simpler than syntax of C/C++ hence it is considered as simple.
Ø No need of header files and macros.
Ø We can not define anything global
Ø Do not support structure and union.
Ø Do not support operator overloading.
Ø Do not support copy constructor and assignment operator function
Ø Do not support constructor member initializer list and default argument
Ø Do not support constant data member and constant member function.
Ø Do not support delete operator and destructor.
Ø Do not support friend function and friend class.
Ø Do not support multiple class( multiple implementation ) inheritance.
Ø Do not support private and protected mode of inheritance.
Ø No diamond problem and virtual base class.
Ø Do not support pointer and pointer arithmetic.

o Size of software(JDK), that is required to develop Java application is small hence


Java is considered as simple programming language.
Object Oriented
• Java is object oriented programming language.
o Java Supports all the major and minor pillars of oops hence it is considered as
object oriented programming language.

o Major pillars of oops.


1. Abstraction
2. Encapsulation
3. Modularity
4. Hierarchy

o Minor pillars of oops.


1. Typing / Polymorphism
2. Concurrency
3. Persistence.
Architecture Neutral
• Java is object architecture neutral programming language.
o Java technology is designed to support applications that will be deployed into
heterogeneous network environments. In such environments, applications must be
capable of executing on a variety of hardware architectures. Within this variety
of hardware platforms, applications must execute on the top of a variety of
operating systems. To accommodate the diversity of operating environments, the
Java Compiler product generates bytecodes--an architecture neutral intermediate
format designed to transport code efficiently to multiple hardware and software
platforms.
Portable
• Java is portable programming language.
o Architecture neutrality is just one part of a truly portable system.

o Java’s slogan is “Write Once Run Anywhere(WORA)”.


Portable
• Java is portable programming language.
o Java technology takes portability a stage further by being strict in its
definition of the basic language.
o Java technology puts a stake in the ground and specifies the sizes of its basic
data types and the behavior of its arithmetic operators.
o Your programs are the same on every platform--there are no data type
incompatibilities across hardware and software architectures.
Robust
• Java is robust programming language.
o The Java programming language is designed for creating highly reliable software.
It provides extensive compile-time checking, followed by a second level of run-
time checking. Language features guide programmers towards reliable programming
habits.
o Java is robust because of following features:
1. Architecture Neutral.
Ø Java developer is free from developing H/W or OS specific coding.
2. Object orientation.
Ø Reusability reduces developer’s effort.
3. Automatic memory management.
Ø Developer need not to worry about memory leakage / program crashes.
4. Exception handling.
Ø Java compiler helps developer to provide try-catch block.
Multithreaded
• Java is multithreaded programming language.
o When we start execution of Java application then JVM starts execution of two
threads hence every Java is considered as multithreaded.
1. Main thread
Ø It is user thread / non daemon thread.
Ø It is responsible for invoking main method.
Ø Its default priority is 5( Thread.NORM_PRIORITY ).
2. Garbage Collector / Finalizer
Ø It is daemon thread / background thread.
Ø It is responsible for releasing / deallocating memory of unused objects.
Ø Its default priority is 8( Thread.NORM_PRIORITY + 3 ).

o The Java platform supports multithreading at the language level with the addition
of sophisticated synchronization primitives: the language library provides
the Thread class, and the run-time system provides monitor and condition lock
primitives. At the library level, moreover, Java technology's high-level system
libraries have been written to be thread safe: the functionality provided by the
libraries is available without conflict to multiple concurrent threads of
execution.
Dynamic
• Java is dynamic programming language.
o While the Java Compiler is strict in its compile-time static checking, the
language and run-time system are dynamic in their linking stages. Classes are
linked only as needed. New code modules can be linked in on demand from a variety
of sources, even from sources across a network.
o Java is designed to adapt to an evolving environment.
o Libraries can freely add new methods and instance variables without any effect on
their clients.
o In Java finding out runtime type information is straightforward.
o In Java, all the methods are by default virtual.
Secure
• Java is secure programming language.
o Java is intended to be used in networked/distributed environments. Toward that
end, a lot of emphasis has been placed on security. Java enables the construction
of virus-free, tamper-free systems.
o From the beginning, Java was designed to make certain kinds of attacks impossible,
among them:
1. Overrunning the runtime stack—a common attack of worms and viruses
2. Corrupting memory outside its own process space
3. Reading or writing files without permission

High Performance
• Java is high performance programming language.
o The Java platform achieves superior performance by adopting a scheme by which the
interpreter can run at full speed without needing to check the run-time
environment.
o The automatic garbage collector runs as a low-priority background thread, ensuring
a high probability that memory is available when required, leading to better
performance.
o Applications requiring large amounts of compute power can be designed such that
compute-intensive sections can be rewritten in native machine code as required and
interfaced with the Java platform.
o In general, users perceive that interactive applications respond quickly even
though they're interpreted.
Distributed
• Java is distributed programming language.
o Java has an extensive library of routines for coping with TCP/IP protocols like
HTTP and FTP.
o Java applications can open and access objects across the Net via URLs with the
same ease as when accessing a local file system.
o Nowadays, one takes this for granted, but in 1995, connecting to a web server from
a C++ or Visual Basic program was a major undertaking.
