 STATEMENT

This project is about building an Email administration application

using files as database.

6
 DESCRIPTION

This project is a basic Java project focused on applying object

oriented design in a real world application.

Email administration by using files as a database is to simulate the

existing email system. Its purpose is to send and receive electronic
mails (e-mails). This project is developed using JAVA and files
concepts in java.

 CONCEPTS USED

1. Switch case:

The switch statement is a multi-way branch statement. It provides an

easy way to dispatch execution to different parts of code based on the
value of the expression.Basically, the expression can be byte, short,
char, and int primitive data types.Duplicate case values are not
allowed.The value for a case must be of the same data type as the
variable in the switch.The value for a case must be a constant or a
literal. Variables are not allowed. The break statement is used inside
the switch to terminate a statementsequence. The break statement is
optional. If omitted, execution will continue on into

the next case.The default statement is optional and can appear

anywhere inside the switchblock. In case, if it is not at the end, then a
break statement must be kept after the default statement to omit the
execution of the next case statement.

2.Conditional statements (if,else if,else)

If / Else / Else If conditional statements are conditional statements that

have more than one condition. If the first condition is false, only then
will the second condition will be checked. If the second one is also
false, then default to else or it will do nothing

8
3.Loops (for, while,do while)

While Loop :

A while loop is the most straightforward looping structure. While loop

syntax in C programming language is as follows:

Syntax of While Loop:

while (condition) {

statements;

It is an entry-controlled loop. In while loop, a condition is evaluated

before processing a body of the loop. If a condition is true then and only
then the body of a loop is executed. After the body of a loop is executed
then control again goes back at the beginning, and the condition is
checked if it is true, the same process is executed until the condition
becomes false. Once the condition becomes false, the control goes out
of the loop.

Do-While loop

A do...while loop in C is similar to the while loop except that the

condition is always executed after the body of a loop. It is also called
an exit-controlled loop.

Syntax of do while loop in C programming language is as follows:

9
Syntax of Do-While Loop:

do {

statements

} while (expression);

For loop:

A for loop is a more efficient loop structure in 'C' programming. The

general

structure of for loop syntax in C is as follows:

Syntax of For Loop :

for (initial value; condition; incrementation or decrementation )

statements;

equals method in java:

In Java, string equals() method compares the two given strings based
on the data/content of the string. If all the contents of both the strings
are same then it returns true. If all characters are not matched then it
returns false.

Classes:

10
A class is a user defined blueprint or prototype from which objects are
created. It represents the set of properties or methods that are common
to all objects of one type. In general, class declarations can include
these components,in order:

Modifiers: A class can be public or has default access (Refer this for
details).

class keyword: class keyword is used to create a class.

Class name: The name should begin with an initial letter (capitalized
by convention). Superclass(if any): The name of the class’s parent
(superclass), if any,preceded by the keyword extends. A class can only
extend (subclass) one parent.

Interfaces(if any): A comma-separated list of interfaces implemented

by the class, if any, preceded by the keyword implements. A class can
implement more than one interface.

Body: The class body surrounded by braces, { }.

5. JAVA PACKAGES

A java package is a group of similar types of classes, interfaces and

sub-packages. Package in java can be categorized in two form, built-in
package and user-defined package. There are many built-in packages
such as java, lang, awt, javax, swing, net, io, util,

sql etc.Here, we will have the detailed learning of creating and using
user-defined packages.

11
6. Java File Class

The File class is an abstract representation of file and directory path

name. A path name can be either absolute or relative.

The File class have several methods for working with directories and
files such as creating new directories or files, deleting and renaming
directories or files, listing the contents of a directory etc.

It is an abstract representation of file and directory path names.

A path name, whether abstract or in string form can be either absolute

or relative. The parent of an abstract path name may be obtained by
invoking the getParent() method of this class.

First of all, we should create the File class object by passing the
filename or directory name to it. A file system may implement
restrictions to certain operations on the actual file-system object, such
as reading, writing, and executing. These restrictions are collectively
known as access permissions.Instances of the File class are immutable;
that is, once created, the abstractpathname represented by a File object
will never change.
