1z0-829 Java SE 17 Developer Questions and Answers

The answer is E because the code fragment contains several syntax errors that prevent it from compiling. Some of the errors are:

• The enum declaration is missing a semicolon after the list of constants.
• The enum constants are not capitalized, which violates the Java naming convention for enums.
• The switch expression is missing parentheses around the variable name.
• The case labels are missing colons after the enum constants.
• The default label is missing a break statement, which causes a fall-through to the next case.
• The println statement is missing a closing parenthesis and a semicolon.

A possible corrected version of the code fragment is:

enum Vehicle { BICYCLE, CAR, MOTORCYCLE, TRUCK; } public class Test { public static void main(String[] args) { Vehicle v = Vehicle.BICYCLE; switch (v) { case BICYCLE: System.out.print(“1”); break; case CAR: System.out.print(“3”); break; case MOTORCYCLE: System.out.print(“1”); break; case TRUCK: System.out.print(“2”); break; default: System.out.print(“0”); break; } System.out.println(); } }

This would print 1 as the output. References:

The code fragment is creating a Duration object with a value of 5000 milliseconds, then printing it. Then, it is creating another Duration object with a value of 60 seconds, then printing it. Finally, it is creating a Period object with a value of 6 days, then printing it. The output will be “PT5000PT60MP6D”. References: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/time/Duration.html, https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/time/Period.html

The code fragment is comparing the values of a, b, and c using the < and > operators. The first comparison, d, is checking if a is less than b and greater than c. Since a is equal to 2, b is equal to -2, and c is equal to -4, this comparison will evaluate to true. The second comparison, e, is checking if a is greater than b and a is greater than c. Since a is equal to 2, b is equal to -2, and c is equal to -4, this comparison will evaluate to false. Therefore, the result will be true 1 false 2. References: Operators (The Java™ Tutorials > Learning the Java Language - Oracle

The code fragment uses the Collections.binarySearch method to search for the string “e3” in the list. The first search returns the index of the element, which is 2. The second search returns the index of the element, which is 0. The third search returns the index of the element, which is -4. The final result is 2. References: Collections (Java SE 17 & JDK 17) - Oracle

The code creates two threads, t1 and t2, and starts them. The threads will print their names and the value of the Atomic Integer object, x, which is initially set to 1. The threads will then increment the value of x and print their names and the new value of x. Since the threads are started at the same time, the output will be in random order. However, the final output will always be t1 : 1 : t2: 1 : t1 : 2 : t2: 2: References: AtomicInteger (Java SE 17 & JDK 17) - Oracle

The answer is B because a bottom-up migration is a strategy for modularizing an existing application by moving its dependencies to the module path one by one, starting from the lowest-level libraries and ending with the application itself. This way, each module can declare its dependencies on other modules using the module-info.java file, and benefit from the features of the Java Platform Module System (JPMS), such as reliable configuration, strong encapsulation, and service loading.

Option A is incorrect because a top-down migration is a strategy for modularizing an existing application by moving it to the module path first, along with its dependencies as automatic modules. Automatic modules are non-modular JAR files that are treated as modules with some limitations, such as not having a module descriptor or a fixed name. A top-down migration allows the application to use the module path without requiring all of its dependencies to be modularized first.

Option C is incorrect because a top-down migration does not require any specific order of migrating modules, as long as the application is moved first and its dependencies are moved as automatic modules. A bottom-up migration, on the other hand, requires the required modules to migrate before the modules that depend on them.

Option D is incorrect because unnamed modules are not automatic modules in any migration strategy. Unnamed modules are modules that do not have a name or a module descriptor, such as classes loaded from the class path or dynamically generated classes. Unnamed modules have unrestricted access to all other modules, but they cannot be accessed by named modules, except through reflection with reduced security checks. References:

The code fragment is using the switch statement with the new Java 17 syntax. The switch statement checks the value of the variable rank and executes the corresponding case statement. In this case, the value of rank is 4, so the first case statement is executed, printing “Range1”. The second and third case statements are also executed, printing “Range2” and “Range3”. The default case statement is also executed, printing “Not a valid rank”. References: Java Language Changes - Oracle Help Center

The answer is B because the code uses the writeObject and readObject methods of the ObjectOutputStream and ObjectInputStream classes to serialize and deserialize the Game object. These methods use the default serialization mechanism, which writes and reads the state of the object’s fields, including the inherited ones. Therefore, the title field of the Software class is also serialized and deserialized along with the players field of the Game class. The toString method of the Game class calls the toString method of the Software class using super.toString(), which returns the value of the title field. Hence, when the deserialized object is printed, it shows “Software Game Software Game Chess 2”. References:

The code fragment is trying to read an object from a file using the ObjectInputStream class. This class throws an IOException and a ClassNotFoundException. To handle these exceptions, the main method signature should declare that it throws these exceptions. Otherwise, the code will not compile. If the main method throws these exceptions, the code will print Wagon : 200, which is the result of calling the toString method of the LuxuryCar object that was written to the file. References: ObjectInputStream (Java SE 17 & JDK 17) - Oracle, ObjectOutputStream (Java SE 17 & JDK 17) - Oracle

The code fragment will execute the update statement and set the course fee of the course with ID 1021 to 5000. The executeUpdate method returns an int value that indicates the number of rows affected by the SQL statement. In this case, only one row will be updated, so the result variable will be 1. The if statement will check if the result is greater than 0, which is true, and print “Updated successfully”. Therefore, the output of the code fragment is true. References: https://education.oracle.com/products/trackp_OCPJSE17, https://mylearn.oracle.com/ou/learning-path/java-se-17-developer/99487, https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/17/docs/api/java.sql/java/sql/Statement.html#executeUpdate(java.lang.String)

The answer is D because the code fragment reads the content of the in.txt file and writes it to the out.txt file. The content of the in.txt file is “23456789”. The code fragment uses a char array buffer of size 8 to read the content of the in.txt file. The while loop reads the content of the in.txt file and writes it to the out.txt file until the end of the file is reached. Therefore, the content of the out.txt file will be “0123456789”.

The code fragment will fail to compile because the parseInt method of the Integer class is a static method, which means that it can be invoked without creating an object of the class. However, the code is trying to invoke the parseInt method on an object of type Integer, which is not allowed. The correct way to invoke the parseInt method is by using the class name, such as Integer.parseInt (s). Therefore, the code fragment will produce a compilation error. References: Integer (Java SE 17 & JDK 17) - Oracle
