static variables java
Static keyword is used a lot in java.
Static means, you
can access those static variables
without creating an object,
just by using a class name.
This means that only one instance of
that static member is created which
is shared across all instances of the class.
Basically we use static keyword when
all members share same instance.static in java
static keyword is a non-access modifier. static keyword can be used with
class level variable, block, method and inner class or nested class.Static method in java
We can declare a method as static by adding keyword “static” before method name.
Let’s see example on static method in java.
public class StaticMethodExample
{
static void print()
{
System.out.println("in static method.");
}
public static void main(String[] args)
{
StaticMethodExample.print();
}
}static data and static methods in java
class JavaExample{
private static String str = "BeginnersBook";
//Static class
static class MyNestedClass{
//non-static method
public void disp() {
/* If you make the str variable of outer class
* non-static then you will get compilation error
* because: a nested static class cannot access non-
* static members of the outer class.
*/
System.out.println(str);
}
}
public static void main(String args[])
{
/* To create instance of nested class we didn't need the outer
* class instance but for a regular nested class you would need
* to create an instance of outer class first
*/
JavaExample.MyNestedClass obj = new JavaExample.MyNestedClass();
obj.disp();
}
