Accessing constructor of an anonymous class

Question

Lets say I have a concrete class Class1 and I am creating an anonymous class out of it.

Object a = new Class1(){
        void someNewMethod(){
        }
             


        

Answer 1

That is not possible, but you can add an anonymous initializer like this:

final int anInt = ...;
Object a = new Class1()
{
  {
    System.out.println(anInt);
  }

  void someNewMethod() {
  }
};

Don't forget final on declarations of local variables or parameters used by the anonymous class, as i did it for anInt.
