Overridding

[Abhi vijay]

 public class Var_over
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
}

public static void go(Var_over a)
{
System.out.println("VAR-ARGS");

}
}


class A extends Var_over
{
	public void go(A a)
	{
	System.out.println("ARRRAY");
	
}
}   

Isnt this legal Overridding?? Then how can I override non-static method with a static???

[Vijay Raj]

This isn't over-riding at all. A static method is a class method, it belongs to the class. A non-static method in a sub-class with the same name as a static method of the super class is actually a brand new method and has no relation to the super class' method.

No! The non-static go method is just a new method in the subclass. Thanks.
