Java: Calling a super method which calls an overridden method

Question

public class SuperClass
{
    public void method1()
    {
        System.out.println(\"superclass method1\");
        this.method2();
    }

    public void method2(         


        

Answer 1

I don't believe you can do it directly. One workaround would be to have a private internal implementation of method2 in the superclass, and call that. For example:

public class SuperClass
{
    public void method1()
    {
        System.out.println("superclass method1");
        this.internalMethod2();
    }

    public void method2()
    {
        this.internalMethod2(); 
    }
    private void internalMethod2()
    {
        System.out.println("superclass method2");
    }

}
