Object Slicing, Is it advantage ?
- by harigm
Object slicing is some thing that object looses some of its attributes or functions when a child class is assigned to base class.
Some thing like
Class A{
}
Class B extends A{
}
Class SomeClass{
A a = new A();
B b = new B();
// Some where if might happen like this */
a = b; (Object slicing happens)
}
Do we say Object slicing is any beneficial in any ways?
If yes, can any one please tell me how object slicing be a helpful in development and where it might be helpful?
