nested class
Like other members, a nested class can be declared static (or not). A static nested class is called just that: a static nested class. A nonstatic nested class is called an inner class.
- Nested class分为静态 Static nested class 的和非静态的 inner class, 在SUN的眼里只有Nested Class!!
As with static methods and variables, which we call class methods and variables, a static nested class is associated with its enclosing class. And like class methods, a static nested class cannot refer directly to instance variables or methods defined in its enclosing class — it can use them only through an object reference.
- 静态的Static nested class是不可以直接调用它的外部类enclosing class的,但是可以通过外部类的引用来调用,就像你在一个类中写了main方法一样。
...
As with instance methods and variables, an inner class is associated with an instance of its enclosing class and has direct access to that object's instance variables and methods. Also, because an inner class is associated with an instance, it cannot define any static members itself.
-非静态类inner class 可以自由的引用外部类的属性和方法,但是它与一个实例绑定 在了以其 ,不可以定义静态的属性、方法(因为可以调用外部类的静态方法和变量)
...
class EnclosingClass {
...
class InnerClass {
...
}
}
The interesting feature about the relationship between these two classes is not that InnerClass is syntactically defined within EnclosingClass. Rather, it's that an instance of InnerClass can exist only within an instance of EnclosingClass and that it has direct access to the instance variables and methods of its enclosing instance. The next figure illustrates this idea.
