package com.valami;

 public class Ferrari
 {
  private int v = 0;


  private void alam()
  {
   System.out.println("alam");
  }

  public Ferrari()
  {
   System.out.println(v);
  }



  public static void main(String[] args)
  {
   Ferrari f = new Ferrari();
   f.v = 5;
   System.out.println(f.v);
  }

 }

Hi all! I have one simple question.... WHY can I reach a private variable from the main method ? I know, I'm in the containing class, but it is main. I believed the main is NOT part of the class which is containing it... Then I would not to reach an private member, but I can....WHY? Please help...thx


回答1:


Main is a part of you class, you have declared it inside your class :) What main is not is part of your object, it will not be any part of the objects you create from the class but it is still part of the class. This is correct for any static function as main is just a normal static function that the framework knows it should look for when the program is executed.




回答2:


Classes can access the private instance variables of (other) objects of the same type.

The following is also possible

public class Foo {

    private int a;

    public void mutateOtherInstance(Foo otherFoo) {
        otherFoo.a = 1;
    }
}

You could argue if this is desirably or not, but it's just a rule of life that the JLS has specified this is legal.




回答3:


The main method is in the class Ferrari and thus can access private variables, even if it's static.




回答4:


Well, main() is part of the containing class. In fact, main() is exactly like every other method, except that you can start the JVM and tell it to run the main() method of a class from the command line.




回答5:


As long as the private variable is in the same class as the main() method, then the main() method has access to it. In general, even static methods have access to private fields of instances of the same class.




回答6:


The only special feature of the main method is it is used to tell the compiler where program execution should begin. Other than that it behaves just like any other class method and has access to private variables like any other class method.




回答7:


Because main is static and your class hasn't been instantiated.

e.g., you have no Ferrari object to access. You must create a Ferrari object then access it's members. static main is a special static function. You can think of it as sort of separate if you want. So if you moved your main method outside of Ferrari you would expect that you would have to create an instance of Ferrari to use it... same deal here.
