ما التحميل الزائد؟

class Calculator {
    int add(int a, int b)     { return a + b; }
    double add(double a, double b) { return a + b; }
    int add(int a, int b, int c)   { return a + b + c; }

    // compile error — same signature, different return type only:
    // long add(int a, int b) { return a + b; }
}

Calculator calc = new Calculator();
System.out.println(calc.add(1, 2));       // 3 (int)
System.out.println(calc.add(1.5, 2.5));   // 4.0 (double)
System.out.println(calc.add(1, 2, 3));    // 6 (3-arg)

الحل: التطابق الأكثر تخصيصًا

static void print(int x)    { System.out.println("int: "    + x); }
static void print(long x)   { System.out.println("long: "   + x); }
static void print(Object x) { System.out.println("Object: " + x); }

print(42);       // int: 42 (exact match — most specific)
print(42L);      // long: 42 (exact match)
print(3.14);     // Object: 3.14 (no float match, widening then autoboxing)

التوسيع قبل autoboxing

static void display(long n)    { System.out.println("long: " + n); }
static void display(Integer n) { System.out.println("Integer: " + n); }

int x = 100;
display(x); // long: 100 — widens int to long BEFORE autoboxing to Integer
// This surprises many developers!

static void show(Long n)    { System.out.println("Long"); }
static void show(Integer n) { System.out.println("Integer"); }

// show(100); // compile error — ambiguous! Neither is more specific

غموض المعامل null

static void handle(String s)  { System.out.println("String: " + s); }
static void handle(Integer i) { System.out.println("Integer: " + i); }
static void handle(Object o)  { System.out.println("Object"); }

handle((String) null);  // String: null (cast resolves ambiguity)
handle((Integer) null); // Integer: null
// handle(null);        // compile error: ambiguous (String vs Integer)

التحميل الزائد مع الوراثة

class Animal {}
class Dog extends Animal {}

static void greet(Animal a) { System.out.println("Animal"); }
static void greet(Dog d)    { System.out.println("Dog"); }

Animal a = new Dog(); // declared as Animal
greet(a);   // Animal — compile-time type is Animal!

Dog d = new Dog();
greet(d);   // Dog — compile-time type is Dog

التحميل الزائد مقابل إعادة التعريف

class Base {
    void run() { System.out.println("Base.run"); }
}
class Sub extends Base {
    @Override
    void run() { System.out.println("Sub.run"); } // overriding

    void run(int speed) { System.out.println("Sub.run(" + speed + ")"); } // overloading
}

Base b = new Sub();
b.run();     // Sub.run — override (runtime dispatch)
// b.run(10); // compile error — Base doesn't have run(int)

أنماط التحميل الزائد الشائعة

class Connection {
    void connect(String host, int port, int timeout) {
        System.out.println("Connecting to " + host + ":" + port + " timeout=" + timeout);
    }

    // Convenience overloads
    void connect(String host, int port) {
        connect(host, port, 30); // delegate with default timeout
    }

    void connect(String host) {
        connect(host, 5432); // delegate with default port
    }
}

new Connection().connect("db.example.com");
// Connecting to db.example.com:5432 timeout=30

التحميل الزائد والأنواع العامة

// Type erasure problem: both methods erase to the same signature!
// static void process(List<String> list) {} // compile error
// static void process(List<Integer> list) {} // duplicate after erasure

// Solutions:
// 1. Use different method names: processStrings / processIntegers
// 2. Use a generic method with bounded type:
static <T extends Number> void processNumbers(List<T> list) {
    list.forEach(n -> System.out.println(n.doubleValue()));
}
processNumbers(List.of(1, 2, 3));
processNumbers(List.of(1.5, 2.5));

تطبيق عملي: تحميل زائد بأسلوب Builder

class Notification {
    final String title, body;
    final String imageUrl;
    final boolean urgent;

    // Factory overloads for convenience
    static Notification simple(String title, String body) {
        return new Notification(title, body, null, false);
    }
    static Notification urgent(String title, String body) {
        return new Notification(title, body, null, true);
    }
    static Notification withImage(String title, String body, String url) {
        return new Notification(title, body, url, false);
    }
    Notification(String title, String body, String imageUrl, boolean urgent) {
        this.title = title; this.body = body;
        this.imageUrl = imageUrl; this.urgent = urgent;
    }
}

مطبات التحميل الزائد

// Confusing: order-based overloads
// void save(String name, int age)  {}
// void save(int age, String name)  {} // very confusing!

// Better: use a record/DTO
record UserData(String name, int age) {}
void save(UserData data) {}

// Surprising widening
static void m(long x)   { System.out.println("long"); }
static void m(Integer x){ System.out.println("Integer"); }
int v = 5;
m(v); // long! widening preferred over autoboxing
