[Prabhat Ranjan]

Hi,

is static methods could be synchronized or not ? if yes then how can we achieve it and it no then why?

Please let me know the concept .

[Henry Wong]

Synchronized static methods use the instance of the Class class, that represents the class, as the lock. This instance can be accessed via the ".class" property of the class.

}

	synchronized (YourClass.class) {
		
	}
}
