Can an abstract class have a constructor?

Question

Can an abstract class have a constructor?

If so, how can it be used and for what purposes?

Answer 1

package Test1;

public class AbstractClassConstructor {

public AbstractClassConstructor() {

}

    public static void main(String args[]) {
       Demo obj = new Test("Test of code has started");
       obj.test1();
    }

}

abstract class Demo{
    protected final String demoValue;

    public Demo(String testName){
        this.demoValue = testName;
    }

    public abstract boolean test1();
}

class Test extends Demo{

    public Test(String name){
        super(name);
    }

    @Override
    public boolean test1() {
       System.out.println( this.demoValue + " Demo test started");
       return true;
    }

}
