interface static method java example

Example 1: How many static methods can an interface have?

package com.journaldev.java8.staticmethod;

public interface MyData {

	default void print(String str) {
		if (!isNull(str))
			System.out.println("MyData Print::" + str);
	}

	static boolean isNull(String str) {
		System.out.println("Interface Null Check");

		return str == null ? true : "".equals(str) ? true : false;
	}
}

Example 2: How many static methods can an interface have?

package com.journaldev.java8.staticmethod;

public class MyDataImpl implements MyData {

	public boolean isNull(String str) {
		System.out.println("Impl Null Check");

		return str == null ? true : false;
	}
	
	public static void main(String args[]){
		MyDataImpl obj = new MyDataImpl();
		obj.print("");
		obj.isNull("abc");
	}
}

Example 3: static in java

The static keyword in Java is used for memory management mainly. We can apply static keyword with
variables, methods, blocks and nested classes. The static keyword belongs to the class 
  than an instance of the class.

The static can be:

Variable (also known as a class variable)
Method (also known as a class method)
Block
Nested class

Example 4: 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();
   }
}
