  RestTemplate : 1) Why do we need RestTemplate?  ==> To communicate with different services in single application. Create Resttemplate object: // create an instance of RestTemplate RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate ( ) ; 2) Different methods of RestTemplate. exchange() <http_method>ForEntity      ex    getForEntity(),postForEntity() <http_method>ForObject         ex     getForObject(),postForObject() HttpPost Api with parameters:                                          Returns PostForObject(url,request,classType);                         ResponseBody PostForEntity(url,request,responseType);                    Response status,header,body PostForLocation(url,r...

   API ( Application Programming Interface )  API stands for " Application Programming Interface ". API is the acronym for Application Programming Interface, which is a software intermediary that allows two applications to talk to each other.

The server then retrieves that data, interprets it, performs the necessary actions and sends it back to your phone. The application then interprets that data and presents you with the information you wanted in a readable way. This is what an API is - all of this happens via API.

The kitchen is the part of the “system” that will prepare your order. What is missing is the critical link to communicate your order to the kitchen and deliver your food b...

Similarly, for Activity in Android, we go through state changes in the total duration of the activity. An Android activity undergoes through a number of states during its whole lifecycle. The following diagram shows the whole Activity lifecycle:                                         ...

Android Core Building Blocks : An Android Component is a simply piece of code that has well defined life cycle. Android Manifest.xml File :    manifest file which contains the description of each component and how they interact.  The manifest file also contains the app’s metadata, its hardware configuration, and  platform requirements, external libraries, and required permissions. The basic components of any android application :  Activities Intent and broadcast receivers Services Content Providers Widgets and Notifications     1)  Activities :   Whenever we open an Android application, then you see some UI drawn over our screen.  That screen is called an Activity.   Activities are said to be the presentation layer of our applications.An activity is a class that represents a single screen.  For example , when we open our Gmail application, then we see our emails on the screen.
