static methods

[Former Member]

Hi,

Can we redefine static methods.

[Former Member]

Hi,

YES we can.

But we can not change its Signature. Only we can change the operation defined in it.

However, in case of Static constructure you can change the both.

Hi!

You cannot redefine the static methods only instance methods can be redefined.

REDEFINITION is when the implementation of an inherited INSTANCE METHOD is changed for the subclass without changing its signature. At the same time, the visibility section for the superclass must remain the same.

Hi Sandeep,

There is only one static component per program context. To summarize:

Static Components and Inheritance

• A class that defines a public or protected static attribute shares this attribute

with all its subclasses

• Static methods cannot be redefined

Static methods cannot be abstract because they cannot be redefined.

Hi Sandeep,

yes we can declare static methods using the CLASS-METHODS statement.

They can only access static attributes and trigger static events.

Hope this helps,

Thanks,
