java构造函数未定义,Java错误：默认构造函数未定义隐式超级构造函数

I have a some simple Java code that looks similar to this in its structure:

abstract public class BaseClass {

String someString;

public BaseClass(String someString) {

this.someString = someString;

}

abstract public String getName();

}

public class ACSubClass extends BaseClass {

public ASubClass(String someString) {

super(someString);

}

public String getName() {

return "name value for ASubClass";

}

}

I will have quite a few subclasses of BaseClass, each implementing the getName() method in its own way (template method pattern).

This works well, but I don't like having the redundant constructor in the subclasses. It's more to type and it is difficult to maintain. If I were to change the method signature of the BaseClass constructor, I would have to change all the subclasses.

When I remove the constructor from the subclasses, I get this compile-time error:

Implicit super constructor BaseClass() is undefined for default constructor. Must define an explicit constructor

Is what I am trying to do possible?

解决方案

You get this error because a class which has no constructor has a default constructor, which is argument-less and is equivalent to the following code:

public ACSubClass() {

super();

}

However since your BaseClass declares a constructor (and therefore doesn't have the default, no-arg constructor that the compiler would otherwise provide) this is illegal - a class that extends BaseClass can't call super(); because there is not a no-argument constructor in BaseClass.

This is probably a little counter-intuitive because you might think that a subclass automatically has any constructor that the base class has.

The simplest way around this is for the base class to not declare a constructor (and thus have the default, no-arg constructor) or have a declared no-arg constructor (either by itself or alongside any other constructors). But often this approach can't be applied - because you need whatever arguments are being passed into the constructor to construct a legit instance of the class.
