Java: Passing the same objects to each others constructor

Question

Evening everyone.

I seem to have hit an odd problem when trying to pass an object to another objects constructor who\'s constructor also relies on the object it\'s being

Answer 1

This will lead to problems as you can see. Instead of this approach, you can use the setter-getter method approach where you construct the object with a default constructor such as

ToolBar myToolBar = new ToolBar();
WebPanel webPanel = new WebPanel();

and then use the setter methods to set the required instance variables which are required for the object to be fully constructed.

myToolBar.setWebPanel(webPanel);
webPanel.setToolBar(myToolBar);
