Interface Segregation Principle

This program demonstrates Interface Segregation Principle.

Problem Statement

Write a Java program where clients only implement methods they need.

Source Code

1 interface Printer { void print(); }
2 interface Scanner { void scan(); }
3 class SimplePrinter implements Printer {
4 public void print(){ System.out.println("Printing document"); }
5 }
6 public class ISPExample {
7 public static void main(String[] args) {
8 System.out.println("Eduinq ISP Example");
9 Printer p=new SimplePrinter();
10 p.print();
11 }
12 }

Program Output

Eduinq ISP Example
Printing document

Explanation

ISP states clients should not be forced to implement unnecessary methods. - Separate interfaces for Printer and Scanner. - SimplePrinter only implements Printer, avoiding unused methods. Conclusion: Shows how to apply Interface Segregation Principle.
