Doubt in synchronized

[Gayk Gevorkyan]

   
 
class Parent { 
     synchronized void f() {
     }
}
 
class Child extends Parent {
     void f() {
     }
}
 

Will f() in Child be synchronized?

Thanks,

For future reference, the Thread class has a holdsLock() method, which can be used to quickly write a test program to see for yourself.


But, to answer your question.... No. The f() method in the Child class will not be synchronized.
