What is the explanation of this results in Java ?
- by M.H
I have the following code :
public class Main {
private int i = j; //1
private int j = 10;
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println((new Main()).i);
}
}
and there is a compiler error in line 1 because an illegal
forward reference.
But when I am trying the following code :
public class Main {
int i = getJ(); //1
int getJ(){
return j;
}
int j=10;
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println(new Main().i);
}
}
it works fine and the result is 0.Why there is no illegal
forward reference in line 1 here?.The two codes look similar to me.
