Java Programming - Declarations and Access Control - Discussion

Discussion Forum : Declarations and Access Control - Finding the output (Q.No. 1)
1.
What will be the output of the program?
class A 
{
    final public int GetResult(int a, int b) { return 0; } 
} 
class B extends A 
{ 
    public int GetResult(int a, int b) {return 1; } 
} 
public class Test 
{
    public static void main(String args[]) 
    { 
        B b = new B(); 
        System.out.println("x = " + b.GetResult(0, 1));  
    } 
}
x = 0
x = 1
Compilation fails.
An exception is thrown at runtime.
Answer: Option
Explanation:

The code doesn't compile because the method GetResult() in class A is final and so cannot be overridden.

What if object calls its own method? Please explain.

Method overridden means method already in superclass same method in subclass.

The final class can't be extended.
The final method can't override in subclass.
The final method can be overload.
The final variable values can't changed.

Can you please tell higher precedence in java in case operator?

Zaki said:   8 years ago
Method can't be overridden here as because it's a final but in super class, the value we are giving are not initialized that the reason we get compile time error. And class method treated as its own.

Thank you all for explaining the concept.

Final method cannot be overridden.

Correct me if I am wrong, but we can rewrite the method.
