is it wrong?

[pony]

public class OuterClass{
private double d1=1.0;
static class InnerOne{
double methoda(){
return new OuterClass().d1; //is it wrong?
}
}
public static void main(String args[]){
InnerOne myclass=new InnerOne();
System.out.println(myclass.methoda());
}
}
the result: it can run and get the answer 1.0

This is perfectly fine since the inner class can access all the private members of the outer class.

but as the Student Guide of SL-275 page 7-36 said:
"Inner classes that are declared static automatically became
top-level classes"
so the "Inner class" now isn't Inner class is as same level
class as Outer,I think it can't visit private varibles of
Outer class.

static inner classes are correctly called as top-level nested classes or simply nested classes. So, they are nested. Nested classes can access the member variables of the enclosing class.

If it can't "visit" the private variables like you say, then your first example obviously wouldn't work. So you're wrong. In Bill Brogden's Exam Cram page 82 on the topic of static inner classes also known as nested classes, and I quote ..." Just as member methods in a class have unlimited access to all private and other variables and methods in the class, nested classes also have unlimited access."
