hi,
why is this not compiling.
i am getting undefined variable I on the last line.
Can anyone tell me what am i missing

interface I{
}
class Super{
}
public class abcde extends Super implements I{

public static void main(String args[]){

Super s=(Super)I;
}
}

You have to declare a variable of type Interface I.
Look at the following code.
interface I{
}
class Super{
}
public class abcde extends Super implements I{

public static void main(String args[]){
I i = null;
Super s=(Super)i;
}
}

thanks Roopa,
But if i do not want to initialize it to null and check whether I can be casted to Super then how do i go about.

In case you want the variable to have an proper value you could do.
I i = new abcde();
(An Interface type can be assigned a class that implements it)
