Use a final class, and define a private constructor to hide the public one. For simplicity you may then use a static import to reuse your values in another class public final class MyValues { private MyValues() { // No need to instantiate the class, we can hide its constructor } public static final String VALUE1 = "foo"; public static final String VALUE2 = "bar"; }
Mar 30, 2010 · There’s another way to do this, and that’s to declare the struct inside the class, but define it outside. This can be useful, for example, if the struct is decently complex and likely to be used standalone in a way that would benefit from being described in detail somewhere else. The syntax for this is as follows: class Container { ...
Sep 10, 2009 · This way, accessing the first 4 bytes in the struct also accesses the first 4 bytes in the 'inherited class' (assuming non-crazy optimizations). Now, when the pointer of the struct is cast to the 'inherited class', the 'inherited class' can access the 'inherited values' in the same way it would access its members normally.

Dec 11, 2010 · If you are wondering why there isn't a language feature that allows you to somehow define a non-null default value for a class, remember that a class is a "reference type". A reference type is a reference to allocated memory, or in other words, anything except null is a constructed instance of that object which required memory to be allocated.
final class can avoid breaking the public API when you add new methods. Suppose that on version 1 of your Base class you do: public class Base {} and a client does: class Derived extends Base { public int method() { return 1; } } Then if in version 2 you want to add a method method to Base: class Base { public String method() { return null; } }
Aug 6, 2018 · And that really does seem like what you want here. The function doesn’t have any inherent connection to the class; it just takes a number and does stuff to that number without any thought of anything about your class. Or, if you don’t want to “pollute the global namespace”, you can just define it as a local function within arithmetic.
Nov 12, 2009 · So instead, in the browser after my ajax request returned data, I created one css class per possible selection and applied it to each element, defining the rule for all classes with no attributes.
