 |
|
I have a class with a static variable in it and now I want it to be accessed
from within a static method, but that method has an argument with the same
name. When referring to an object there is the 'this' keyword, but what to
do when you refer to the class itself?! |

(Also was posted to clj.programmer as "Little problem with class-variable acces")
Please do not multi-post; it fragments the threads and makes it at least
difficult for folks to follow along. It also risks wasting people's time who
may not realize that the same answer is being provided elsewhere.
Instead, if you really truly must reach multiple newsgroups, cross-post with a
follow-up set to the one group where the thread should continue.

Just use the name of the class, a dot, and the name of the variable. E.g.
if your class is called Teapot you can do something like:
Teapot.volume=42;
Or you could change the name of the method argument. |
