If I cast an object as its superclass, then call a method that has been overrided
in the child, will it call the method from the child or the superclass??
Such as:
public class TMHTTPDataObject
{
String value = "";
public void setValue(String _value)
{
value = _value;
}
public String getValue()
{
return value;
}
}
public class TMHTTPDateField
{
public void setValue(String _value)
{
value = dateConvert(_value);
}
}
if( panelItems.elementAt(i) instanceof TMHTTPDataObject )
{
TMHTTPDataObject temp = (TMHTTPDataObject) panelItems.elementAt(i);
if( temp.getLinkedField().equals(_linkedField) )
{
temp.setValue(_value);
break;
}
}
Should getValue return the string straight up or the dateConverted string??
