yes of course... using the final keyword
You would make a class Final in Java if you do not want anybody to inherit the features of your class. If you declare a class as Final, then no other class can extend this class. Example: public final class X { .... } public class Y extends X { .... } Here Y cannot extend X because X is final and this code would not work.
Declare the class as final. final class A{ ... }
A class declared as final means that no other class can inherit from it.
by making that class final
You can declare a class as "final".
Every method in java that isn't a class (static) method is automatically "virtual." If you want to disable virtual overrides, make the method "final" in the base class.
String class
You declare a method final in Java when you do not want any subclasses of your class to be able to override the method. I have also heard that this allows the Java compiler to make more intelligent decisions. For example, it supposedly allows Java to decide when to make a method inline. (Note that this is all unconfirmed)
No. Interfaces themselves cannot be instantiated, so in order to be useful you must make a subclass. The final keyword will make a class unable to be extended, which would defeat the point of using an interface.
Use the word "final" directly preceding your method declaration. The presence of final keyword directs java to ensure that, this particular method would not be overridden by any of its child classes.
If a class is declared as final, you can't inherit from it. If individual methods are declared final, then, if the class is inherited, these methods can't be changed in the inherited classes.
-Public to all - Static to access with Class Name - Final to change( constant and not alowed to change) Just use it along with class name. (As implied above, a 'public static final' variable in Java is what other languages would call a Constant. )
