Can we override static methods?

Answer Posted / madan mohanp

we cannot override a static method but we can overload a
static method.
Ex: override is not possible
class Foo {
public static void classMethod() {
System.out.println("classMethod() in Foo");

}

public void instanceMethod() {
System.out.println("instanceMethod() in Foo");
}
}

class Bar extends Foo {
public static void classMethod() {
System.out.println("classMethod() in Bar");

}

public void instanceMethod() {
System.out.println("instanceMethod() in Bar");
}
}

class StaticHiding {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Foo f = new Bar();

f.instanceMethod();
f.classMethod();


when u run this program output will be:
instanceMethod() in Bar
classMethod() in Foo.

Ex: overload is possible
public class abc
{
public static void main(String args[])
{

}
public static void trss()
{

}
public static void trss(int i)
{
}

}
