use of object array

Posted by tejinder singh on April 24, 2001 at 1:51 PM

hi
if you are interested in having an array of different classes and then as per the class ,the method of that class is to be called.then consider the following code
Object o[]=new Object[2];
o[0]=new a();//a is any class having a method show
o[1]=new aa()//aa is any class having a method show1
for(int i=0;i{
if(o[i] instanceof a)
{
((a)o[i]).show();
}
else if(o[i] instanceof aa)
((aa)o[i]).show1();
}
do write if are not satisfied with it
