Dive into Java Method Overloading

Method overloading allows a class to have two or more methods having same name. But there are some conditions applied if you overload a method. Let’s discuss on then.

First of all we should know “ Why do we use method overloading in Java?” .

Suppose we have to perform addition of given number but there can be any number of arguments, if we write method such as methodAddTwoNo(int a, int b) for two arguments, methodAddThreeNo(int a, int b, int c) for three arguments then it is very difficult for you and other programmer to understand purpose or behaviors of method they can not identify purpose of method. So we use method overloading to easily figure out the program. For example above two methods we can write sum(int a, int b) and sum(int a, int b, int c) using method overloading concept.

So it is clear that to achieve method overloading concept methods should have same name but with different parameters.

But what will happen if we put methods name same and also the same parameters.

Let’s see:

Implement Android Data Binding library in your android app: Part-2

In Part-1 we discussed about how to implement Android Data Binding library in your android app. In this part we will see how we can bind data within our layout xml files and also the clickListeners on buttons.

Data-binding layout files are slightly different and start with a root tag of layout followed by a data element and a view root element. This view element is what your root would be in a non-binding layout file. A sample file looks like this:

Let’s implement Android Data Binding library in your android app: Part-1

Now there is no need for the third party libraries to bind views and data for better coding, because android recently introduced a new feature for this.

Android Data Binding is one of the most interesting feature recently introduced but still in beta version.

Android Data Binding exist between app presentation layer and data model layer that holds the information to show.
