Overriding the toString Method

• Format all fields:
  

  public class Employee 
  { 
     public String toString() 
     { 
        return getClass().getName() 
           + "[name=" + name 
           + ",salary=" + salary 
           + "]"; 
     } 
     ... 
  } 
  

• Typical string:
  

  Employee[name=Harry Hacker,salary=35000]
