Overriding member variables in Java ( Variable Hiding)

Question

I am studying overriding member functions in JAVA and thought about experimenting with overriding member variables.

So, I defined classes

public clas         


        

Answer 1

I hope this can help:

public class B extends A {
//  public int intVal = 2;

    public B() {
        super();
        super.intVal = 2;
    }

    public void identifyClass() {
        System.out.println("I am class B");
    }
}

So overriding variable of base class is not possible, but base class variable value can be set (changed) from constructor of inherited class.
