How to use Context and useReducer for state management in React app? Example Tutorial

Introduction

A React component is made up of props and state. The state can be local or global. Usually, the local state is handled within the component using the setState method in class components and hooks in the functional components. But as the application grows, the state is usually required to be shared among multiple components. The global state is managed using third-party libraries such as Redux. 

Redux works perfectly but setting up redux is complicated and working with it is more complicated. So for moderate global state management, we can use Context API or the useReducer hook. But, there is one more way for managing the global state and that is by using the Context API and useReducer together.

Top 20 Hibernate Interview Questions with Answers for Java Programmers

Hibernate is one of the most popular persistent frameworks in the Java world. Hibernate offers an object to relational (ORM) solution which frees Java developers from writing tedious, hard to read, and cluttered JDBC code converting SQL columns into Object properties. Apart from freeing Java developers from writing JDBC and database interaction code, Hibernate also offers the out-of-box solution on caching, proxying, and lazy loading which drastically improves the performance of your Java Web application. 

How to Parse JSON in Java Object using Jackson - Example Tutorial

Hello guys, if you are wondering how to parse JSON in Java then don't worry, there are many options. In the last article, I have shown you 3 ways to parse JSON in Java in this example, You will learn how to parse a  JSON String to Java and how to convert Java Object to JSON format using Jackson. JSON stands for JavaScript Object notation is a subset of JavaScript object syntax, which allows all JavaScript clients to process it without using any external library. Because of its compact size, compared to XML and platform independence nature makes JSON a favorite format for transferring data via HTTP. 

3 ways to Count words in Java String - Google Interview Questions with Solution

Today, I am going to share with you Java interview questions from Google, which were asked to one of my readers during the telephonic round. How do you count the number of words in a given String in Java? You can count words in Java String by using the split() method of String. A word is nothing but a non-space character in String, which is separated by one or multiple spaces. By using a regular expression to find spaces and split on them will give you an array of all words in a given String. This was the easy way to solve this problem as shown here, but if you have been asked to write a program to count a number of words in a given String in Java without using any of String utility methods like String.split() or StringTokenizer then it's a little bit challenging for a beginner programmer.

Difference between save(), saveOrUpdate() and persist() in Hibernate Session

The Session interface in Hibernate provides a couple of methods to move an object from a new or transient state to a persistent state like save(), saveOrUpdate(), and persist() is used to store an object into the database, but there are some significant differences between them. The Session.save() method does an INSERT to store the object into the database and it also returns the identifier generated by the database. On the other hand, saveOrUpdate() can be used to reattach a detached object in Hibernate Session i.e. it can do INSERT or UPDATE depending upon whether an object exists in the database or not. 

7 Examples of HttpURLConnection in Java - Sending GET and POST Request [Tutorial]

If you want to learn how to send GET and POST requests from the Java program then you have come to the right place. Earlier, I have shared free Java Courses for beginners, and today, I am going to show you how to use HttpURLConnection class in Java to send HTTP requests to the server.  The HttpURLConnection is an important class in the java.net package which allows you to send an HTTP request from a Java program. By using this class you can send any kind of HTTP request like GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, HEAD, etc to the server and call REST APIs. 

15 Technical Core Java Interview Questions Answers for Experienced Developers

When the experience of a Java Programmer grows in the years e.g. when it goes from beginner years ( 2 to 4) to more experience or sort of senior level ( 5 to 7 years), Core Java Interview Questions also change a bit. Of course, basics like data structure, algorithms, and object-oriented programming remains the same, but types of questions will become more advanced and their answers will definitely need to be more detailed and accurate. I often receive queries about core Java questions asked to a senior developer with 5 to 6-year experience, or, sometimes, I am going for an interview of a senior Java developer, what kind of questions I should expect.
