After doing a search in the forum, I couldn't find an answer for my question. If you see the code below, I would like to access the F class with the message: "Top level class"class. I want to use default package, is there any way to get access to the top level class F?
I don't think there is a one if using default package, but I'm not sure...

I suppose you can access the outer F class like this


Well in your code, the Test1 has an implementation and also the main method. So the code uses the class which is nearest for new F().

as Nitish said,
if there is a name clash just explicitly specify the outer class or interface in which your property lies............

I don't see a way to do this. The F class inside the main() method shadows the outer F class. And if i am right, the same way as you cannot reach the shadowed variables, you cannot reach the shadowed class...

there is no way for that 8]
Default package has no name and cannot be reffered in any way

Java in a Nutshell By David Flanagan wrote: If no package directive appears in a Java file, all classes defined in that file are part of an unnamed default package. In this case, the qualified and unqualified names of a class are the same. The possibility of naming conflicts means that you should use this default package only for very simple code or early on in the development process of a larger project.

That's what i meant. It could have only been possible if there was a name for the default package.

I totally agree with you, I don't think there is a way of it, but I'm not 100% certain.
BTW, I forgot to disclaim the the code that I posted is mine... just in case a rancher asked me where I got it.
