1,在idea中进入object类
2,阅读源码
2,1 object类的结构
没有定义属性,一共有13个方法
2.2 public Object()
构造方法,实际是存在的,但没有写
2.3
private static native void registerNatives();
static {
registerNatives();
}
registerNatives函数前面有native关键字修饰，Java中，用native关键字修饰的函数表明该方法的实现并不是在Java中去完成，而是由C/C++去完成，并被编译成了.dll，由Java去调用。方法的具体实现体在dll文件中，对于不同平台，其具体实现应该有所不同。用native修饰，即表示操作系统，需要提供此方法，Java本身需要使用。具体到registerNatives()方法本身，其主要作用是将C/C++中的方法映射到Java中的native方法，实现方法命名的解耦。
后面的静态代码块,执行了此方法
2.4
public final native Class getClass();
以下为getClass的源码解释(根据自己的理解给出翻译):
/**
* Returns the runtime class of this {@code Object}.
返回的是运行对象的类
The returned
* {@code Class} object is the object that is locked by {@code
* static synchronized} methods of the represented class.
* The actual result type is {@code Class}
* where {@code |X|} is the erasure of the static type of the
* expression on which {@code getClass} is called.
For
* example, no cast is required in this code fragment:
* For example不需要强制类型转化
*
* {@code Number n = 0; }
* {@code Class c = n.getClass(); }
*
*
* @return The {@code Class} object that represents the runtime
* class of this object.
返回的class对象表示当前运行的类的对象
* @jls 15.8.2 Class Literals
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
Number n = 0;
Class c = n.getClass();
System.out.println(c);
}
运行结果:java.lang.Integer
getClass()也是一个native方法，返回的是此Object对象的类对象/运行时类对象Class。效果与Object.class相同。
首先解释下"类对象"的概念：在Java中，类是是对具有一组相同特征或行为的实例的抽象并进行描述，对象则是此类所描述的特征或行为的具体实例。作为概念层次的类，其本身也具有某些共同的特性，如都具有类名称、由类加载器去加载，都具有包，具有父类，属性和方法等。于是，Java中有专门定义了一个类，Class，去描述其他类所具有的这些特性，因此，从此角度去看，类本身也都是属于Class类的对象。为与经常意义上的对象相区分，在此称之为"类对象"。
2.5 public native int hashCode();
/**
* Returns a hash code value for the object.
返回当前对象的hashcode的值
This method is
* supported for the benefit of hash tables such as those provided by
* {@link java.util.HashMap}.此方法被java.uitl.HashMap支持
*
* The general contract of {@code hashCode} is:具体内容如下
*
* - Whenever it is invoked on the same object more than once during
* an execution of a Java application,
the {@code hashCode} method
* must consistently return the same integer, provided no information
* used in {@code equals} comparisons on the object is modified.
* This integer need not remain consistent from one execution of an
* application to another execution of the same application.
在 Java 应用程序执行期间，
在对同一对象多次调用 hashCode 方法时，
必须一致地返回相同的整数，
前提是将对象进行 equals 比较时所用的信息没有被修改。
从某一应用程序的一次执行到
同一应用程序的另一次执行，该整数无需保持一致。
*
- If two objects are equal according to the {@code equals(Object)}
* method, then calling the {@code hashCode} method on each of
* the two objects must produce the same integer result.
如果根据 equals(Object) 方法，两个对象是相等的，
那么对这两个对象中的每 个对象调用 hashCode 方法
都必须生成相同的整数结果
*
- It is not required that if two objects are unequal
* according to the {@link java.lang.Object#equals(java.lang.Object)}
* method, then calling the {@code hashCode} method on each of the
* two objects must produce distinct integer results. However, the
* programmer should be aware that producing distinct integer results
* for unequal objects may improve the performance of hash tables.
如果根据 equals(java.lang.Object) 方法，两个对象不相等，
那么对这两个对象中的任一对象上调用 hashCode 方法不
要求一定生成不同的整数结果。
但是，程序员应该意识到，为不相等的对象生成不同整数结果可以提高哈希表的性能。
*
*
* As much as is reasonably practical, the hashCode method defined by
* class {@code Object} does return distinct integers for distinct
* objects. (This is typically implemented by converting the internal
* address of the object into an integer, but this implementation
* technique is not required by the
* Java™ programming language.)
*
* @return a hash code value for this object.
* @see java.lang.Object#equals(java.lang.Object)
* @see java.lang.System#identityHashCode
*/
2.6
public boolean equals(Object obj) {
return (this == obj);
}
/**
* Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.
其他对象是否等于地对象
*
* The {@code equals} method implements an equivalence relation
* on non-null object references:
equals方法实现等价关系在非空对象引用上：
*
* - It is reflexive: for any non-null reference value
* {@code x}, {@code x.equals(x)} should return
* {@code true}.
对应任意的非空值应该返回true
*
- It is symmetric: for any non-null reference values
* {@code x} and {@code y}, {@code x.equals(y)}
* should return {@code true} if and only if
* {@code y.equals(x)} returns {@code true}.
a.equals(b)等价于b.equals(a)
*
- It is transitive: for any non-null reference values
* {@code x}, {@code y}, and {@code z}, if
* {@code x.equals(y)} returns {@code true} and
* {@code y.equals(z)} returns {@code true}, then
* {@code x.equals(z)} should return {@code true}.
可传递的
*
- It is consistent: for any non-null reference values
* {@code x} and {@code y}, multiple invocations of
* {@code x.equals(y)} consistently return {@code true}
* or consistently return {@code false}, provided no
* information used in {@code equals} comparisons on the
* objects is modified.
对于任何的非空的对象,它都是连续的
*
- For any non-null reference value {@code x},
* {@code x.equals(null)} should return {@code false}.
*
*
* The {@code equals} method for class {@code Object} implements
* the most discriminating possible equivalence relation on objects;
* that is, for any non-null reference values {@code x} and
* {@code y}, this method returns {@code true} if and only
* if {@code x} and {@code y} refer to the same object
* ({@code x == y} has the value {@code true}).
对应两个类的对象,返回true的可能当且仅当两个值为同一个对象
*
* Note that it is generally necessary to override the {@code hashCode}
* method whenever this method is overridden, so as to maintain the
* general contract for the {@code hashCode} method, which states
* that equal objects must have equal hash codes.
*当重写此方法时,一定要重写hashcode方法,因为规定相同的对象一定要有相同的
哈希值
* @param obj the reference object with which to compare.
* @return {@code true} if this object is the same as the obj
* argument; {@code false} otherwise.
* @see #hashCode()
* @see java.util.HashMap
*/
Object原生的equals()方法内部调用的正是==，与==具有相同的含义。既然如此，为什么还要定义此equals()方法？
equlas()方法的正确理解应该是：判断两个对象是否相等。那么判断对象相等的标尺又是什么？
如上，在object类中，此标尺即为==。当然，这个标尺不是固定的，其他类中可以按照实际的需要对此标尺含义进行重定义。如String类中则是依据字符串内容是否相等来重定义了此标尺含义。如此可以增加类的功能型和实际编码的灵活性。当然了，如果自定义的类没有重写equals()方法来重新定义此标尺，那么默认的将是其父类的equals()，直到object基类。
即严格的数学逻辑表示为： 两个对象相等 <=> equals()相等 => hashCode()相等。因此，重写equlas()方法必须重写hashCode()方法，以保证此逻辑严格成立，同时可以推理出：hasCode()不相等 => equals（）不相等 <=> 两个对象不相等。
2.7
可能有人在此产生疑问：既然比较两个对象是否相等的唯一条件（也是冲要条件）是equals，那么为什么还要弄出一个hashCode()，并且进行如此约定，弄得这么麻烦？
其实，这主要体现在hashCode()方法的作用上，其主要用于增强哈希表的性能。
以集合类中，以Set为例，当新加一个对象时，需要判断现有集合中是否已经存在与此对象相等的对象，如果没有hashCode()方法，需要将Set进行一次遍历，并逐一用equals()方法判断两个对象是否相等，此种算法时间复杂度为o(n)。通过借助于hasCode方法，先计算出即将新加入对象的哈希码，然后根据哈希算法计算出此对象的位置，直接判断此位置上是否已有对象即可。（注：Set的底层用的是Map的原理实现）
在此需要纠正一个理解上的误区：对象的hashCode()返回的不是对象所在的物理内存地址。甚至也不一定是对象的逻辑地址，hashCode()相同的两个对象，不一定相等，换言之，不相等的两个对象，hashCode()返回的哈希码可能相同。
2.8
/**
* Creates and returns a copy of this object. The precise meaning
* of "copy" may depend on the class of the object. The general
* intent is that, for any object {@code x},
返回当前对象的拷贝
the expression:
*
*
* x.clone() != x
* will be true, and that the expression:
*
*
* x.clone().getClass() == x.getClass()
* will be {@code true}, but these are not absolute requirements.
两个对象不相同,但是两个对象的class对象相同,这些不是绝对的要求
* While it is typically the case that:
*
*
* x.clone().equals(x)
* will be {@code true}, this is not an absolute requirement.
*
* By convention, the returned object should be obtained by calling
* {@code super.clone}. If a class and all of its superclasses (except
* {@code Object}) obey this convention, it will be the case that
* {@code x.clone().getClass() == x.getClass()}.
*
* By convention, the object returned by this method should be independent
* of this object (which is being cloned). To achieve this independence,
* it may be necessary to modify one or more fields of the object returned
* by {@code super.clone} before returning it. Typically, this means
* copying any mutable objects that comprise the internal "deep structure"
* of the object being cloned and replacing the references to these
* objects with references to the copies. If a class contains only
* primitive fields or references to immutable objects, then it is usually
* the case that no fields in the object returned by {@code super.clone}
* need to be modified.
*
* The method {@code clone} for class {@code Object} performs a
* specific cloning operation. First, if the class of this object does
* not implement the interface {@code Cloneable}, then a
* {@code CloneNotSupportedException} is thrown. Note that all arrays
* are considered to implement the interface {@code Cloneable} and that
* the return type of the {@code clone} method of an array type {@code T[]}
* is {@code T[]} where T is any reference or primitive type.
* Otherwise, this method creates a new instance of the class of this
* object and initializes all its fields with exactly the contents of
* the corresponding fields of this object, as if by assignment; the
* contents of the fields are not themselves cloned. Thus, this method
* performs a "shallow copy" of this object, not a "deep copy" operation.
*
* The class {@code Object} does not itself implement the interface
* {@code Cloneable}, so calling the {@code clone} method on an object
* whose class is {@code Object} will result in throwing an
* exception at run time.
*
* @return a clone of this instance.
* @throws CloneNotSupportedException if the object's class does not
* support the {@code Cloneable} interface. Subclasses
* that override the {@code clone} method can also
* throw this exception to indicate that an instance cannot
* be cloned.
* @see java.lang.Cloneable
