when do we use static method in java code example
Example 1: why we use static in java
In Java, static keyword is mainly used for memory management.
It can be used with variables, methods, blocks and nested classes.
It is a keyword which is used to share the same variable or method of a given
class. Basically, static is used for a constant variable or a method
that is same for every instance of a class
Example 2: 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();
}
}
