Message:

duplicate code

Posted by Bill Walker on 21 Jul 1998, 4:13 AM

In your example, you have a (minor) duplication of code in
your constructor, you could have used:

RGBColor(int r, int g, int b) {
setColor(r,g,b);
}

Did you do this deliberately since setColor() is
synchronized? What is the effect of sychronized(this)
when "this" is an object under construction?

Thanks,
BW
