Object-oriented

programming in Kotlin
Feels the same

…with some improvements


The defaults are different

public, private, internal

final, open, abstract


The defaults are different
visible in a module

internal
public, private, /*package-private*/

explicit: non-final
final, open, abstract
A module

a set of Kotlin files compiled together


- an IntelliJ IDEA module
- a Maven project
- a Gradle source set
? Find the correspondence between
modifiers and their meaning:

• overrides a member in a
final
superclass or interface
open • must be overridden (can’t
abstract have an implementation)
override • cannot be overridden
• can be overridden
?
? Find the correspondence between
modifiers and their meaning:

final (used by default): cannot be overridden


open: can be overridden
abstract: must be overridden (can’t have an
implementation)
override (mandatory): overrides a member in
a superclass or interface
? Fill the table with the values:
everywhere, in a module, in a file,
in a class, in a subclass

Modifier Class member Top-level declaration

public visible ? visible ?

internal visible ? visible ?

protected visible ? ———

private visible ? visible ?

internal members are mangled

class MyClass {
internal fun foo() {}
}

Under the hood:


public final class MyClass {

}

File structure:

One file may contain several classes and top-level functions
