public static class A {
public static String getStaticName () {
return getStaticNameP();
}

protected static String getStaticNameP() {
return “Statically A!”;
}
}

public static class B extends A {
public static String getStaticNameP() {
return “Statically B!”;
}

public static void main( String[] args ) {
System.out.println(B.getStaticName());
}
}

the output of this code is “Statically A!”
Imagine the public method is a save method you don’t want to override in the subclasses because it works just fine, but the filepath is class dependant (thus, a static method)

Thanks
