Finally, remember that static methods can't be overridden!
This doesn't mean they can't be redefined in a subclass, but
redefining and overriding aren't the same thing.
Let's take a look at an example of a redefined (remember,
not overridden), staticmethod:
class Animal
{
static void doStuff()
{
System.out.print("a ");
}
}
class Dog extends Animal
{
static void dostuff()
{ // it's a redefinition,
// not an override
System.out.print("d ");
}
public static void main(String [] args)
{
Animal [] a = {new Animal(), new Dog(), new Animal()};
for(int x = 0; x < a.length; x++)
a[x].doStuff(); // invoke the static method
}
}
Running this code produces the output:
a a a
The above written material is from kathe Siera which clearly
says that "Static methods can't be overridden."
But you can only redefine them which is not as overriding.
For any further perfect explanation please refer kathe Ciera
