In this lesson, you will learn
Java and C++ are both powerful, object-oriented programming languages, but they have some key differences in terms of syntax, memory management, platform dependence, and other features.
Here are some of the main differences between Java and C++:
S.N | Feature | Java | C++ |
---|---|---|---|
1. | Memory Management | Automatic garbage collection | Manual memory allocation and deallocation |
2. | Platform Dependence | Platform-independent (WORA principle) | Platform-dependent |
3. | Syntax and Features | Simpler syntax and lacks pointers | More complex syntax and support pointers |
4. | Object-Oriented | Purely object-oriented | Supports both procedural and OOP |
5. | Exception Handling | Robust with try , catch , finally |
Supports try , catch , throw |
6. | Threading | Built-in support for multithreading | Supports multithreading, platform-specific |
7. | Standard Libraries | Rich set of standard libraries | Standard Template Library (STL) |
8. | Compilation | Compiled to bytecode (JVM required) | Compiled to machine code |
9. | Operator Overloading | Not Supported | Supported |
10. | Multiple Inheritance | Achieved through interfaces | Supports multiple inheritance |
11. | Pointers | No explicit pointers | Supports explicit pointers |
12. | Default Values | All member variables have default values | No default values for member variables |
13. | Header Files | No header files | Uses header files for declarations |
14. | Memory Model | Reference-based memory model | Simpler syntax lacks pointers |
In the next lesson, you will learn how the Architecture of Java.
