What is a Java superclass |
|
|
A Java superclass is a class which gives a method or methods to a Java subclass.
A Java class may be either a subclass, a superclass, both, or neither!
The Cat class in the following example is the subclass and the Animal class is the superclass.
public class Animal {
public static void hide() {
System.out.println("The hide method in Animal.");
}
public void override() {
System.out.println("The override method in Animal.");
}
}
public class Cat extends Animal {
public static void hide() {
System.out.println("The hide method in Cat.");
}
public void override() {
System.out.println("The override method in Cat.");
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
Cat myCat = new Cat();
Animal myAnimal = (Animal)myCat;
myAnimal.hide();
myAnimal.override();
}
}
