    Classes in Java are templates used to create objects and define object data types and methods. A class defines the core properties including data types and methods that objects can use. All objects of a class should have the basic class properties. A class declaration includes modifiers, class name, keywords, and a class body within curly brackets. Class variables are declared with the static keyword and there is only one copy per class regardless of how many objects are created. Class members include variables, methods, constructors, blocks, and inner classes. Class libraries improve programmer efficiency by allowing the programmer to focus on unique functionality while the libraries handle common tasks.

    CLASS

    DEFINITION
    A class in the context of Java are templates that
    are used to create objects, and to define object data
    types and methods. Core properties include the
    data types and methods that may be used by the
    object. All class objects should have the basic class
    properties. Classes are categories, and objects are
    items within each category.
    Example
    This may be explained with a hypothetical
    example of a tree and types of trees. Generally, a
    tree should have branches, stems and leaves.
    Thus if Banyan is a tree, Banyan should have all of
    the characteristics of a tree, such as branches,
    stems and leaves. It is impossible to say that a
    pigeon is a tree, because the pigeon does not have
    branches, stems and leaves. Similarly, basic Java
    object properties are defined within that object’s
    corresponding class.
    A class declaration is made up of the
    following parts 

    Modifiers
    Class name
    Keywords
    Class body within curly brackets {}
    CLASS VARIABLES
    Class variables also known as static variables are
    declared with the static keyword in a class, but
    outside a method, constructor or a block. There
    would only be one copy of each class variable per
    class, regardless of how many objects are created
    from it.
    CLASS MEMBERS
    Every single thing which are in the scope of the
    class is called class members, not only in java but
    this can also be applied in other programming
    languages.
    For example, if objects and methods are in the
    scope of class 'A', they are the class members of
    class 'A'.
    There are five members in class

    Member Variables (States)


    Methods (Behaviors)
    Constructor
    Blocks (Instance/Static Blocks )
    Inner Classes.
    CLASS LIBRARY
    The uses of the java libraries of class spread the
    programmer efficiency by allowing computer
    programmer to focus on the functionality unique to
    their job. The library classes are generally planned with
    some typical usage pattern in observance, and the
    performance may be suboptimal if the actual usage
    differs. We deliver an approach for rewriting
    applications to use different customized versions of
    library classes that are generated using a combination
    of static analysis and profile information.
    ADVANTAGES OF CLASS LIBRARY
    The type constraints are used to control where the java library classes can be replaced
    with routine versions without affecting type perfection of programs.

    Static analysis is then used to control those applicants for which unused library
    functionality and synchronization can be removed safely from the allocated types.

    The profile data is collected about the usage features of the customization candidates to
    determine where the allocation of custom library classes is likely to be cost-effective.

    To base on the static analysis results and the profiling information the custom library
    classes are automatically generated from a template.

    The bytecode of the client application is rewritten to use the generated custom classes.
    This bytecode rewriting is completely see-through to the programmer.
    CLASS DIAGRAM
    Class diagram is a static diagram. It represents
    the static view of an application. Class diagram is
    not only used for visualizing, describing, and
    documenting different aspects of a system but also
    for constructing executable code of the software
    application.
    Class diagram describes the attributes and
    operations of a class and also the constraints
    imposed on the system. The class diagrams are
    widely used in the modeling of object oriented
    systems because they are the only UML diagrams,
    which can be mapped directly with object-oriented
    languages.

    Class diagram shows a collection of classes,


    interfaces, associations, collaborations, and
    constraints. It is also known as a structural diagram.
    Purposes of Class Diagram

    Analysis and design of the static view of an


    application.
    Describe responsibilities of a system.
    Base for component and deployment diagrams.
    Forward and reverse engineering.
