They're pretty much the same thing. Some people might use "stub" to describe a method with a simple implementation and "abstract" to describe one with no implementation at all. Others might reserve "abstract method" to describe a method of an Interface. Potato, potato... Whatever you call it, the key idea here is that Foo must be defined in class A, even if it doesn't actually have any code in it at that level.
