Question

I have code where a variable name is identical to the class name. I.e.:

class Foo {
  static public void main(String[] args) {
    Integer Foo;
    Foo.main(args);
  }
}

How can I call the main-method without renaming the variable or the class?

Answer 1

If it’s not in the default package you could refer to it via the package name also, e.g.:

packagename.Foo.main(args);

or you can simply refer to main without the class name, e.g.:

main(args);
