• Class is a template and when we create object instance variables gets memory.
  • If we create two objects variables get memory in two objects. So instance variables gets memory whenever object is created.
  • When we create variables as static , memory will not be created in objects because static means class level and it belongs to class not object but we can access static variables and static methods from objects.
  • Calling static method from non static method in java 
  • In our scenario calling a non static method from static method in java.
  • If we are calling a non static method then we need to use object so that it will call corresponding object non static method.
  • Non static methods will be executed or called by using object so whenever we want to call a non static method from static method we need to create an instance and call that method.
  • If we are calling non static method directly from a static method without creating object then compiler throws an error. 



Program #1: Java example program to call non static method from static method.

  • In the above program we are trying to call non static method of class from a static method so compiler throwing error.
  • Can not make a static reference to the non- static method nonStaticMethod() from the type StaticMethodDemo
  • So without object we can not cal non static method of a class.
  • Check the below example program calling non static method from static method by creating object of that class and on that object calling non static method.

Program #2: Java example program to call non static method from static method.

  1. package com.instanceofjava.staticinterviewquestions;
  2. //www.instanceofjava.com
  3.  
  4. public class StaticMethodDemo {
  5.  
  6.     
  7.     void nonStaticMethod(){
  8.         System.out.println("non static method");
  9.     }
  10.     
  11.     public static void staticMethod(){
  12.         
  13.         new StaticMethodDemo().nonStaticMethod();
  14.     }
  15.     
  16.     
  17.     
  18.     public static void main(String[] args) {
  19.         
  20.         StaticMethodDemo.staticMethod();
  21. }
  22.  
  23. }
   
Output:

  1. non static method

Instance Of Java
