Sasha,
I tried your example. This is how it works:

File: In.java

package abc;

public class In {

In() {
System.out.println("instantiating outer In class");
}

public static void main(String[] args ){

Out o = new Out();

o.method();

}

}

File: Out.java

package abc;

class Out {

void method(){
abc.In i = new abc.In();//instantiating outer In class

In in = new In(); // instantiating inner In class
}

class In
{
In() {
System.out.println("instantiating inner In class");
}
}
}

Output is:

instantiating outer In class
instantiating inner In class
