Introduction to Packages

Definition:
A package in Java is a namespace that organizes classes and
interfaces.

Purpose:
- Avoids name conflicts
- Provides access control
- Makes code modular and reusable

Types of Packages:
- Built-in Packages (e.g., [Link], [Link])
- User-defined Packages (created by developers)
Syntax for Creating a Package
Syntax:
package package_name;
public class ClassName {
// class body
}

Rules:
- Must be the first statement in the file.
- The source file should be placed in a folder matching the
package name.
- Compile using: javac -d . [Link]
- Run using: java package_name.ClassName
Example 1 – Create a Simple Package
File: MyPackage/[Link]

package MyPackage;

public class Demo {


public void display() {
[Link]("Hello from MyPackage!");
}
}

Compile & Run:


- javac -d . [Link]
- java [Link]
Example 2 – Access Package Class from
Another File
File 1: MyPackage/[Link]
package MyPackage;
public class Demo {
public void show() {
[Link]("Inside MyPackage Demo class");
}
}
File 2: [Link]
import [Link];

public class TestPackage {


public static void main(String[] args) {
Demo obj = new Demo();
[Link]();
}
}
Example 3 – Package with Multiple Classes
File 1: mypack/[Link]
File 3: [Link]
package mypack;
public class Addition { import mypack.*;
public int add(int a, int b) {
public class MainTest {
return a + b;
public static void main(String[] args) {
} Addition add = new Addition();
} Subtraction sub = new Subtraction();
[Link]("Sum: " + [Link](10, 5));
File 2: mypack/[Link]
[Link]("Difference: " + [Link](10, 5));
}
package mypack; }
public class Subtraction {
public int sub(int a, int b) {
return a - b;
}
}
Example 4 – Subpackages in Java
File: university/students/[Link]
package [Link];
public class Info {
public void show() {
[Link]("Welcome to University Students Package");
}
}
File: [Link]
import [Link];

public class Main {


public static void main(String[] args) {
Info obj = new Info();
[Link]();
}
}
Example 5 – Package + Access Modifiers
File: college/[Link]
package college;
public class Teacher {
protected void display() {
[Link]("Protected method from college package");
}
}
File: [Link]
import [Link];
public class MainApp extends Teacher {
public static void main(String[] args) {
MainApp obj = new MainApp();
[Link]();
}
}
