binding of variables.

[Manish Agarwal]

I am new to Java.This is my first question in this forum.

My question is that we always talk of static and dynamic binding of methods only.Why don't we hav static and dynamic binding of variables?plz help.

If you meant dynamic type binding for variables then no Java does not support it. Java variable type is statically bound during the variable declaration. Dynamic type binding is supported on other languages such as Lisp, where variable type is bound when it is assigned a value.
