I already mentioned the point given by DeveloperArnab in my question that it would give compile time error as Java compiler check for the method in Class A and he doesn't finds the method methB() in it, so it gives error. My question was why does java compiler looks for the method in Class A and not in Class B? Correct Answer to this has been given by Lesstat, David and Aniket Thakur | |
