First, does the order of private static final

Answer 1

see: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se5.0/html/classes.html#8.3.1

8.3.1 Field Modifiers

FieldModifiers:
  FieldModifier
  FieldModifiers FieldModifier

FieldModifier: one of
  Annotation public protected private
  static final transient volatile

...

If two or more (distinct) field modifiers appear in a field declaration, it is customary, though not required, that they appear in the order consistent with that shown above in the production for FieldModifier.
