18-Apr-2023Objects in Java are created and destroyed using constructors and destructors, respectively. A garbage collector, which automatically releases memory by destroying objects that are no longer needed, replaces Java's lack of a destructor. The distinctions between Java constructors and destructors are as follows:
Basically, constructors are used to initialize objects when they are created, while destructors are not explicitly declared in Java and there is no need for them due to the automatic memory management provided by the garbage collector

29-Jun-2022Constructor and destructor are mostly used to handle memory allocation and de-allocation efficiently.
A constructor is nothing but automatic initialization of the object. Whenever the program creates an object at that time constructor, it gets called automatically. You don’t need to call this method explicitly.
A destructor is used to free that memory allocated during initialization. Generally, in java, we don’t need to call the destructor explicitly. Java has a feature of automatic garbage collection.

Constructor :
Destructor:
Note : Java doesn't support Destructor because it's a garbage collected language .

11-Jun-2018Constructors:
They are special class function which is initializing every objects. means its a object creater for different operators.
Notation : mindstick()
They are three types:
1-Default
2-Parametrized
3-Copy
Overloading process would be going through construction.
Destructors:
they are special class for destroy the objects as soon as the scope of objects in end.
Notation: ~mindstick()
Happy Coding :)
