利科夫替换原则指出，如果程序模块使用基类，则基类的引用可以被派生类替换，而不会影响程序模块的功能。

派生类型必须能够完全替代它们的基类型。

示例- java中的协变返回类型。

设q(x)是关于类型为T的x的对象的可证明属性，那么q(y)对于类型为S的对象y应该是可证明的，其中S是T的子类型。

实际上，公认的答案并不是利斯科夫原理的反例。正方形自然是一个特定的矩形，因此从类矩形继承是完全有意义的。你只需要以这样的方式实现它:

@Override
public void setHeight(double height) {
   this.height = height;
   this.width = height; // since it's a square
}

@Override
public void setWidth(double width) {
   setHeight(width);
}

所以，提供了一个很好的例子，然而，这是一个反例:

class Family:
-- getChildrenCount()

class FamilyWithKids extends Family:
-- getChildrenCount() { return childrenCount; } // always > 0

class DeadFamilyWithKids extends FamilyWithKids:
-- getChildrenCount() { return 0; }
-- getChildrenCountWhenAlive() { return childrenCountWhenAlive; }

在这个实现中，DeadFamilyWithKids不能从FamilyWithKids继承，因为getChildrenCount()返回0，而从FamilyWithKids它应该总是返回大于0的值。

以下是这篇文章的摘录，很好地澄清了事情:

(. .为了理解一些原则，重要的是要意识到它什么时候被违反了。这就是我现在要做的。

违反这一原则意味着什么?它意味着对象不履行用接口表示的抽象所施加的契约。换句话说，这意味着您错误地识别了抽象。

考虑下面的例子:

interface Account
{
    /**
     * Withdraw $money amount from this account.
     *
     * @param Money $money
     * @return mixed
     */
    public function withdraw(Money $money);
}
class DefaultAccount implements Account
{
    private $balance;
    public function withdraw(Money $money)
    {
        if (!$this->enoughMoney($money)) {
            return;
        }
        $this->balance->subtract($money);
    }
}

是否违反LSP?是的。这是因为帐户合同告诉我们帐户将被提取，但情况并非总是如此。那么，我该怎么做才能解决这个问题呢?我只是修改了合同:

interface Account
{
    /**
     * Withdraw $money amount from this account if its balance is enough.
     * Otherwise do nothing.
     *
     * @param Money $money
     * @return mixed
     */
    public function withdraw(Money $money);
}

Voilà，现在合同已得到满足。

这种微妙的违反通常会使客户有能力区分所使用的具体对象之间的差异。例如，给定第一个Account的契约，它看起来像下面这样:

class Client
{
    public function go(Account $account, Money $money)
    {
        if ($account instanceof DefaultAccount && !$account->hasEnoughMoney($money)) {
            return;
        }
        $account->withdraw($money);
    }
}

而且，这自动违反了开闭原则(即取款要求)。因为你永远不知道如果违反合同的对象没有足够的钱会发生什么。它可能什么都不返回，可能会抛出异常。所以你必须检查它是否hasEnoughMoney()——这不是接口的一部分。因此这种强制的依赖于具体类的检查违反了OCP。

这一点也解决了我经常遇到的关于LSP违反的误解。它说:“如果父母的行为在孩子身上改变了，那么它就违反了LSP。”然而，事实并非如此——只要孩子不违反父母的契约。

这里有一个清单来确定你是否违反了利斯科夫法则。

如果你违反了以下项目之一->，你违反了里斯科夫。 如果你不违反任何->不能得出任何结论。

检查表:

No new exceptions should be thrown in derived class: If your base class threw ArgumentNullException then your sub classes were only allowed to throw exceptions of type ArgumentNullException or any exceptions derived from ArgumentNullException. Throwing IndexOutOfRangeException is a violation of Liskov. Pre-conditions cannot be strengthened: Assume your base class works with a member int. Now your sub-type requires that int to be positive. This is strengthened pre-conditions, and now any code that worked perfectly fine before with negative ints is broken. Post-conditions cannot be weakened: Assume your base class required all connections to the database should be closed before the method returned. In your sub-class you overrode that method and left the connection open for further reuse. You have weakened the post-conditions of that method. Invariants must be preserved: The most difficult and painful constraint to fulfill. Invariants are sometimes hidden in the base class and the only way to reveal them is to read the code of the base class. Basically you have to be sure when you override a method anything unchangeable must remain unchanged after your overridden method is executed. The best thing I can think of is to enforce these invariant constraints in the base class but that would not be easy. History Constraint: When overriding a method you are not allowed to modify an unmodifiable property in the base class. Take a look at these code and you can see Name is defined to be unmodifiable (private set) but SubType introduces new method that allows modifying it (through reflection): public class SuperType { public string Name { get; private set; } public SuperType(string name, int age) { Name = name; Age = age; } } public class SubType : SuperType { public void ChangeName(string newName) { var propertyType = base.GetType().GetProperty("Name").SetValue(this, newName); } }

还有2项:方法参数的逆变性和返回类型的协方差。但这在c#中是不可能的(我是c#开发人员)，所以我不关心它们。

A square is a rectangle where the width equals the height. If the square sets two different sizes for the width and height it violates the square invariant. This is worked around by introducing side effects. But if the rectangle had a setSize(height, width) with precondition 0 < height and 0 < width. The derived subtype method requires height == width; a stronger precondition (and that violates lsp). This shows that though square is a rectangle it is not a valid subtype because the precondition is strengthened. The work around (in general a bad thing) cause a side effect and this weakens the post condition (which violates lsp). setWidth on the base has post condition 0 < width. The derived weakens it with height == width.

因此，可调整大小的正方形不是可调整大小的矩形。

以Board数组的形式实现ThreeDBoard会有用吗?

也许你想把不同平面上的ThreeDBoard切片作为一个板。在这种情况下，您可能希望为Board抽象出一个接口(或抽象类)，以允许多种实现。

就外部接口而言，您可能希望为TwoDBoard和ThreeDBoard提取一个Board接口(尽管上述方法都不适合)。
