Can we call a constructor through the another constructor from the same class(like function calling) in java?

Question

If yes then How?

Answer 1

public class A {
public A ( ) {
System.out.println (
"Default constructor" ) ;
}

public A ( int i ) {
this ( ) ;
System.out.println ( i ) ;
}

public static void main ( String [ ] args ) {
A a = new A ( 5 ) ;
// Default constructor
// 5
}
}

Answer 2

Yes you can. It must be the first call made though. You just use the this keyword and match the signature of the constructor you wish to call.

class MyClass {

int count;

MyClass() {
this(42);

// More code...
}

MyClass(int count) {
this.count = count;
}
}
