I know that an interface is like a 100% pure abstract class. So, it can't have method implementation in it. But, I saw a strange code. Can anyone explain it?
Code Snippet:
interface Whoa {
public static void doStuff() {
System.out.println("This is not default implementation");
}
}
EDIT:
My IDE is Intellij Idea 13.1. The project SDK is java 7 <1.7.0_25>. The IDE is not showing any compiler error. But, When I compile the code at command line I am getting the following message.
See Question&Answers more detail:osWhoa.java:2: error: modifier static not allowed here public static void doStuff() { ^
