Printing message on Console without using main() method

Question

I was asked this question in an interview.

How to print message on console without using main() method?

Answer 1

Yes, one of the way is static block but in previous version of JDK not in JDK 1.7.

class Withoutmain{  
 static{  
  System.out.println("Message: Your message can be print on console without main() method");  
  System.exit(0);  
 }  
}  

Output:Message: Your message can be print on console without main() method (if not JDK7)

Output:Error: Main method not found in class A3, please define the main method as: public static void main(String[] args)
