Q? From Valiveru's Site

Hi,
I am trying to compile this program and was expecting a compilation error, but it did not give.
class BaseClass
{
public void aMethod()
{
System.out.println("I am a BaseClass method");
}
}
public class Cals extends BaseClass
{
public void aMethod()
{
System.out.println("I am a SubClass method");
super.aMethod();
}
public static void main(String [] arg)
{
Cals sc = new Cals();
sc.aMethod();
}
}
I was under the impression that the super.aMethod() is called after System.out.println() statement so it will give an error. Can anybody please explain why this is happening?
Thanks,
Subba Rao

I thought this restriction only applies to constructors.

Yeah, it is only with constructors that super or this have to be the first line of the body. For other methods, they can be anywhere.
