No, there is not. >From the JLS: "The static keyword may modify the declaration of a member type C within the body of a non-inner class or interface T. Its effect is to declare that C is not an inner class. " and "An *inner class* is a nested class that is not explicitly or implicitly declared static." Note: the effect of 'static' is to declare that the nested class is *not* an inner class. > It is basically a weird use of the word static. > > Please see this: > > http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/javaOO/nested.html > This does not support your claim. It correctly describes an "inner class" as a "non-static nested class". The words "static" and "inner class" in Java are mutually exclusive. -- Lew -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
