Static member classes and intefaces

[Ravinderjit Singh]

At page number 327 in Khalid Mughal's book
It is mentioned that

Static member classes and interfaces can only be nested within other static member or to level classes and interfaces

and i tried it as

class SuperA 
{
static void dd(){
static class AA{
			
		}
	}
}

but it is giving me compile time error and as per my understanding static dd() is a static member of class SuperA.

can anyone please clear my doubt or correct me.

The static class must be declared WITHIN a class but OUTSIDE a method/constructor/block. Similar to an enum, I believe. Try putting the static class outside the method. The compiler will be happy.

[Ankit Garg]

Static inner classes can only be created within top level classes and static inner classes (not all static members)...
