Packages in Java and How to Use Them? A Guide
Share on FacebookShare on WhatsAppShare on Telegram

Sun Microsystems first introduced Java, a general-purpose, high-level programming language, in 1995. It is free to use, cross-platform, and intended to have as minimal implementation requirements as possible. It is class-based, object-oriented, and concurrent. Java is, in a nutshell, a computing platform on which users can create programs. Similar to C++, Java has been reduced to remove language features that frequently result in programming errors. The source code files, or files with a.java extension, are converted into bytecode, or files with a.class extension, in a process called compilation. An interpreter for Java can then run this. A just-in-time compiler can translate bytecode straight into machine language instructions.

It’s simple to learn Java. There is no prerequisite knowledge of fundamental programming languages needed to use the language. Java is not compiled into a platform-specific machine when it is compiled, unlike other programming languages like C++. This implies that a program can be simply performed on any other machine without requiring any changes after being compiled on one. Due to Java’s multithreading capabilities, users may create interactive apps that function without a hitch. Systems free of viruses and tampering can be created using its security features. Authentication techniques are built on public-key encryption.

Packages in Java

A group of classes can be given a unique identity (name) by using packages, also known as namespaces. (Note: Java and Actionscript use packages the most.) You might be writing a finance software and a fishing program, for instance. A Bank class is used in both projects, but for quite different purposes. You can put the first class in the Fish(.Bank) package and the second in the Finance(.Bank) package, allowing you to utilize the term “class Bank” for both unique objects. Simply said, a package is a means to ensure that none of the names you select to use in your program “step on the toes” of names that another application might use. All classes must be contained in a package by definition. The computer will put your code in the “default” package if you don’t declare a package name and leave it empty. You will frequently see messages like, “Using the default package is discouraged.” You should take the extra minute and package the code for any program that is huge (or close to becoming enormous).

We choose a package name to build a package, and then we write the package with its name at the head of every source file to include the classes, interfaces, enumerations, etc. inside the package. Each type of file can only include one package statement. Classes and interfaces will be put in the current default package if they are not written inside any other packages.

Types of Packages in Java

In Java, related classes are grouped in packages. A folder in a file directory comes to mind. By using packages, we can reduce name conflicts and create more dependable code. There are two types of packages in Java:

  1. Built-in Packages (packages from the Java API)
  2. User Defined Packages (create your packages)

Let us know these packages well.

  • Built-in Packages

Numerous packages are installed automatically when Java is installed on a desktop or laptop. Each of them is distinct in their own right and can handle a variety of jobs. This saves us from having to rebuild everything from scratch. The following is a collection of a few built-in package samples.

  • Java. lang – Combines the foundational subjects
  • Java.io – A slew of classes for input and output functions
  • Java. until – collection framework classes as a group
  • Java. applet – Applet creation lessons in a bundle
  • Java. awt – Abstract window toolkit classes in a group
  • Java.net – A collection of classes on network infrastructure
  • Java. swing – Windows application GUI toolkit classes in a group
  • Java.sql – A collection of classes linked to data processing

Extension packages are yet another category for built-in packages. These extension packages begin with the letter Javax. All Java languages that feature lightweight component classes fall under this.

  • Javax.swing
  • Javax.servlet
  • Javax.sql

Let’s look at using an integrated package in your Java file.

import java. lang.*;

class Main {

public static void main(String args[]) {

String a = “1230”;

int b = Integer.parseInt(a);

System.out.println(b);

We’re importing everything from java.lang package in the snippet of code above. This package gives us access to the parseInt function (). This function allows us to convert string variables into integers. Variable “a” of type string also includes digits as seen above. We are accessing the Integer class (defined inside the java. lang package) and using the parseInt() method to retrieve these numbers and save them in an int-type variable.

  • User Defined Packages

Developers build user-defined packages to accommodate various application requirements. User-defined packages, to put it simply, are those that the users define. You can include Java files like classes, interfaces, and packages inside of a package (called a sub-package). Sub-package A sub-package is a package that is defined within another package. It is utilized to increase the package’s genericity in terms of structure. Users can organize their Java files into the appropriate packages using this tool. Consider the case when you have a package called automobiles. Inside of it, you defined supporting Java files.

For instance, Four packages have been defined, some of which even contain defined sub-packages. We gave each package access to Java files. By using this illustration, you may determine the significance of giving files a suitable name and putting them inside a specific package. The significance of packages and this structured style increase with the application’s growth.

Use of Packages in Java

Packages have several benefits, including the ability to handle them easily and securely. Classes and interfaces are easily found or found by searching using packages. By doing so, naming conflicts are reduced. The benefit of employing the classes included in other applications’ packages is offered. Additionally, it uniquely compares other packages’ classes. Let us look into some important uses of packages in Java:

  • The packages combine the collection of classes into a single unit of the API.
  • The naming conflicts will be managed by it.
  • Access control will be simpler. The access level control for the package is protected and set to default.
  • Simple to find the relevant classes
  • Use the current classes in your packages.

Conclusion

A Java package is a collection of related classes, interfaces, and sub-packages. Built-in and user-defined packages are the two categories into which packages in Java are divided. User-defined Packages and Built-in Packages (Java API packages) There are two different types of packages (create your packages). You may avoid name conflicts and create more maintainable code by using packages.
