Marcus Green's Mock question

[Yi Dong]

Question 30)
public class MyClass1 {public static void main(String argv[]){ }/*Modifier at XX */ class MyInner {}}
What modifiers would be legal at XX in the above code?
1) public
2) private
3) static
4) friend

The answer is 1,2,3.
I thought local inner class may not have any access modifier and static modifier. Can anybody explain it ?
Thanks
Yi

Why do you think it is a local inner class? Maybe if we straighten it out...

public class MyClass1 {
    public static void main(String argv[]) {
    }
    /*Modifier at XX */ class MyInner {
    }
}

Sorry I thought the class is within the main method. It is not.

Yi, A lot of people have made that assumption. I don't know if I should modify the layout to make it more clear, or leave it like it is just as a warning on how easy it is to mis-read even small amounts of code .

I think you should leave it exactly the way it is.

They are interesting as they are now.
