Refresh Your Java - Before Java Interview
We are Agile, believe in less Documentation - Only Quick notes (Java Interview Questions) of Java/J2ee Read more....
The stack is the memory set aside as scratch space for a thread of execution. When a function is called, a block is reserved on the top of the stack for local variables and some bookkeeping data. When that function returns, the block becomes unused and can be used the next time a function is called. The stack is always reserved in a LIFO order; the most recently reserved block is always the next block to be freed. This makes it really simple to keep track of the stack; freeing a block from the stack is nothing more than adjusting one pointer.
The heap is memory set aside for dynamic allocation. Unlike the stack, there's no enforced pattern to the allocation and deallocation of blocks from the heap; you can allocate a block at any time and free it at any time. This makes it much more complex to keep track of which parts of the heap are allocated or free at any given time;
This Portal is intended to put all Java/J2ee related topics at one single place for quick referance, not only Technical , but also the Project Management Related thing such as Development Process methodoogies build process, unit testing etc.,
This Portal has More than 500 Java Interview Questions (also could be Considered as Quick Notes) very neatly separated topic by topic with simple diagrams which makes you easily understandable. Importantly these are from our Realtime expericance.
