Z is a method local class. You cannot access it from ppp() because Z is available only within the method body of priya().

What exactly are you trying to do?

Thanks for the reply.

I was doing one mock exam question which is non static member class.



The above program, that ppp() constructor works fine.But I changed that program in method local class.this time,the constructor ppp() is not working.How come the non static member class is working and method local class is not working?

The same reason why a constructor can't access a local variable of a method -- it is not in scope.

Hi Siva,

Z is only visible inside priya() method. Yu can't access it outside. You have to create an instance of Z inside priya() method like this...
