one question about method and static method

[Former Member]

If all the variables in a method are global variables/class-data/constants and no importing parameter.

What's the difference between it is defined as a static method or a normal one?

Hi Ming Yu,

For this case, we won't find any difference in static method and normal(Instance) method based on variable.

But basic difference in calling the method.

Static Method

To call static method, it is not required to create the object for the class. Also static method won't support polymorphism.

CLASS1=>METHOD1.

Instance Method

To call normal method(Instance), It is required to have the object for the class.

OBJ->METHOD1.

You can't override a static method.
