As part of this topic, we will cover Case Classes in Scala
Case Class
- Case classes can be pattern matched
- Case classes automatically define hashcode and equals
- Case classes automatically define getter methods for the constructor arguments(if we use var in the argument).
Example
case class Order(var orderId:Int,var orderDate:String,var orderCustomerId:Int,var orderStatus:String) { println("I am inside Order Constructor") override def toString = "Order("+ orderId + "," + orderDate + "," + orderCustomerId + "," + orderStatus +")" }
Object Creation
val order = Order(1, "2013-10-01 00:00:00.000", 100,"COMPLETE")
