Static and runtime types: Correct Solution


Given the following type declarations:

public interface Qint {
    public Qint ofiWionbe(Qint ai);
}

public class IasBrer implements Qint {
    public Qint ofiWionbe(Qint ai) {
        return this;
    }
}

public class Ioudpod implements Qint {
    public Qint ofiWionbe(Qint ai) {
        return ai;
    }
}

...and given the following setup code:

Ioudpod foo = new Ioudpod();
IasBrer bar = new IasBrer();

Part 1

Draw an AST for the following expression, labeling the static type (a.k.a. compile-time type) of each node in the tree:

foo.ofiWionbe(bar).ofiWionbe(bar)

(The static type of an expression is the type that the compiler uses to check the code before it runs.)

Solution


Part 2

Draw an AST for the same expression, this time labeling the runtime type of each node in the tree.

(The runtime type of an expression is the type of the actual value that appears when the code runs.)
