Local Inner Class In A Static Method
Jun 22, 2014is it necessary that inner classes inside a static method be static . If yes Why?
View Repliesis it necessary that inner classes inside a static method be static . If yes Why?
View RepliesFrom what i understand static methods should be called without creating an instance of the same class . If so why would they return an instance of the same class like in the following : public static Location locateLargest(double[][] a) , the Location class being the same class where the method is defined . I don't understand this , does it mean that every field and every method in the class must be static ? Meaning that you cannot have instances of the class because everything is static . Or it's just a mistake and the class Location cannot have a static method: public static Location locateLargest(double[][] a) ?
View Replies View RelatedAlright, I have two classes, this one
public class Player {
private String player;
public String getPlayer() {
return player;
}
private int strength;
private int defense;
[Code] .....
However, it says that under Player.getPlayer() that it 'Cannot make a static reference to the non-static method'.
Why I can create an Instance of a class that contains non static variables within the static main method ?
This program runs fine
import java.util.*;
public class Test{
public int j;
public static void main(String[] args) {
Test test1=new Test();
System.out.println(test1.j);
[Code] .....
I am getting an error trying to access a static method of another class...theyre both in the same package, I've tried importing the class.
I've tried to do A b=new A()
and then
b.evaluate();
Everything that I try I get the following error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: B$A
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: B$A

at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:247)
Code :
public class A{
public static String evaluate(String op) {
}
}
public class B{
String output=A.evaluate(input);
}
A common solution to this problem is to write a utility class whose responsibility is to log information. This class can have a flag that will allow you to turn the logging on and off. In addition you should be able to tell the class how much detail you want in the output. Ultimately, this class will give you the ability to control when information is logged, what information is logged, how often information is logged, and even where the information is logged. And you would be able to control all of this without changing a single line of code!
This type of utility class is commonly written using static methods and is referred to as a static class. In order to use the features of a utility class, the application can access the methods directly by referring the class name, eliminating the need to create an instance of the class in order to execute the methods.
What happens to a static variable that is defined within a method of a class ?
View Replies View RelatedThis is my code inside the method:
@Post
public static String getDetails(Representation entity) throws Exception {
String customerId = getQuery().getValues("cus_id");
}
I use this code in Restlet Representation. I try to get the value from the Request API. But I am facing the problem as "Cannot make a static reference to the non-static method getQuery() from the type Resource".
I can't figure out what this error message "Cannot make a static reference to the non-static method getEndUserCharge(long, long, long, long) from the type UpdateUserWS" actually means.
The error is coming from:
public void updateDetailsPackage() {
some unrelated code
long zero=0;
double endUserCharge=0;
endUserCharge = UpdateUserWS.getEndUserCharge(long zero, long zero, long zero, long zero); <-------- error is here

I'm working on a banking program that is supposed to use 3 classes (Account-base class, CheckingAccount, and SavingsAccount) and several methods to display the banking information (ID, balance after a withdrawal and deposit, and the annual interest rate). This should be a pretty simple program, but I'm getting hung up on one portion of it. I'm getting some compiler errors, all of which deal with non-static variables being called from a static context (I'll also post these errors following the code). Up until the middle of last week, we just declared everything as static, but that's changed and I'm having trouble figuring out when to and when not to use static when declaring my methods, hence the compiler errors.
import java.util.Date;
public class Account {
private int id = 0;
private double balance = 0;
private double annualInterestRate = 0;
private Date dateCreated = new Date();
[Code] ....
Here are the compiler errors I am receiving:
Compilation completed. The following files were not compiled:

I had a TestColor class which contained methods to change hue, saturation, brightness, red, green, blue of TestColor's instances but also had static methods which take in an additional parameter for an instance of TestColor and returns the affected instance of TestColor. Now instead of having one method for every possible color effect to be applied to an image, how can I have one method that takes in an Image parameter, a static or non-static method reference from TestColor parameter and lastly an intensnity value parameter. This is so that I can make an affectedImage object instance inside the method and a Graphics2D object for drawing to each pixel of the new image, now I have one for loop and one nested for loop for the x and y pixels of width and height of the old image and inside the nested for loop I'd create a TestColor by calling getRGB on the image's pixel. Then I would apply the static or non-static method reference somehow to change the color with the intensnity value and after applying it draw to the new Image with Graphics2D. How to would I parametize a method reference and be able to use it in such way?

I now we have two kinds of lock one is object level lock and another is class level lock
I am trying to compile the following code where the entry point is Main.java but i am getting the following error "Error non-static method add(int[]) cannot be referenced from a static context in Java " ....
If i add the keyword static in add method of A.java it works properly......
Class Main.java code
package com.company;
public class Main {
public int [] a= new int[]{1,2,3};
public static void main(String[] args) {
Main n= new Main();
[Code]...
Both the classes are in same package
This is a someway special question, because I am using jmonkeyEngine.
But the topic is simple:
I have 2 classes:
public class Spielbrett extends SimpleApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Spielbrett app = new Spielbrett();
app.start();
}
@Override
public void simpleInitApp() {
[Code]...
as the main class and a second class for the chips:
public class Spielstein {
public Spatial stone;
public int player;
public int team;
private AssetManager assetManager = Spielstein.getAM(); //THIS IS THE PROBLEM
public Spielstein(int t_player, int t_team){
[Code]...
My problem is: I can't access getAM() from the first in the second class. If you know why I would be glad for an answer.
I am using findbugs and PMD as a code analyser. I am keep getting warnings to use local variables and method parameters as final.
I want to know if its a good practice to keep them final or what to do?
Sometime i have a private method which is 1 line longer. Sometime it is annoying to use final.
class Test
{
static Test ref;
String[] arguments;
public void func(String[] args)
{
ref.arguments = args;
[code]...
This code run perfectly.But the static method is acessing a non static method which was supposed to be not possible.
We know that a non static method can not be directly refrenced from static method but in the example given below there is no such error.Why?
class A
{
private void display()
{
System.out.println("In A");
}
public static void invoke (A x)
{
x.display();
[code]....
In above case a non static method display() is being invoked from static method invoke ()but it is not giving error.why?
Which is more efficient static block or static method ?
View Replies View RelatedI’m trying to understand how to decide when to make a nested class static or non-static. These are my assumptions.
1) Make a nested class static if each instance of its enclosing class may have one or more instances of its nested class, for example, a HashMap has a static HashMap.Entry nested class because each HashMap instance may have one or more HashMap.Entry instances
2) Make a nested class non-static if each instance of its enclosing class must have only one instance of its nested class, for example, an AbstractButton has a non-static AbstractButton.Handler nested class because each AbstractButton instance must have only one AbstractButton.Handler instance.
I wrote a code to use static class. But, when I call the class in a outer class but, it gives an error. Is it mandatory to have a static class should have static variables when we declaring them??
public class StaticClassMain {
static class Sub{
String str="Example 1";
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println(Sub.str);
}
}
Take this:
class test
{
static int i=j;
static int j=10;
.....
this will give illegal forward reference ....
but this will compile successfully ..
class test
{
static int i=test1();
static test1()
{
return 20;
}
}
.....
plz assume we have main method in both cases ..
java would be loading all static members first and would be assigning default values .. and then will be running all the initializers from to bottom ..Why second case is a compile success and not first .. as in second also test1 method is declared after its usage ..
I am working on a project involving a class that has the attributes of one of its inner classes. Now, if possible, I would like to make it so that the inner class is not visible outside of the class. Also, some of the functional mechanics require that the class be an instance of the nested inner class (it extends the inner class). The following code snippet demonstrates the situation.
public class A extends A.B {
public static class B { //ideally I would like this to be private/protected.
}
}
When I try to compile this program, I get the error message "Cyclical inheritance involving A." This error does not make much sense because, since the inner class "B" is static, it requires no instance of "A" (it does not inherit from "A" or uses it). My question is "Is it possible to do something similar to this structure?" I have searched many forums in search of the answer but have not found anything that attempts to explain it. The closest problem that I have found is one relating to the inheritance of a nested inner class from another class. I would like to express that the problem that I am having involves a class defined within the inheriting class.
I have an Abstract Class called GameColorEffect which contains a number of non-static Inner Classes that extend their Parent Class, GameColorEffect. I want to be able to create instances of the Inner Classes, however my IDE, eclipse, prompts me with the error:
No enclosing instance of type GameColorEffect is accessible. Must qualify the allocation with an enclosing instance of type GameColorEffect
And eclipse shows me a possible solution which is to turn the Inner Classes to static, this would allow me to create instances, but not really. This is because using methods from the static Inner Classes that change values in the Inner Classes will do this for every instance of the same Inner Class which is literally like a single instance. However, I want these Inner Classes to be individual with their values and still be able to use them outside as instances. I've found out a possible solution, which I'm not sure works like I want it to:
Java Code : GameColorEffect = new GameColorEffect.ExampleEffect(); mh_sh_highlight_all('java');
However, this is in-compact because sometimes all I need is to use just a method like:
Java Code : new GameColorEffect.ExampleEffect(intensity).applyEffect() mh_sh_highlight_all('java');
And another solution that I already knew prior was that I could make the Inner Classes proper classes not inside of the GameColorEffect class, but this is also in-compact because I will have to have so many classes for the so many effects that I have.
I'm writing a program that calculates phone charges. I have my class is set up, but when I try to retrieve data from it in my main, eclipse says that I need to set my method to static, which messes up the rest of the program.
Class:
public class MobileCharges {
private double charges;
private int minutes;
private String plan;
[Code].....
can a static method be overridden?
