Is there a ‘new’ modifier for methods in Java?
In c#, a subclass’s method can be modified as new.
One usage of the new modifier to explicitly hide a member inherited from a base class.
Is there a same keyword in Java?
No.
In C# you use new to hide / shadow non-virtual functions of a base class. You need this keyword in C#, because you can not override functions that are non-virtual.
In Java, all functions are virtual by default, hence you can always override them and there is no need for a keyword such as new.
Hope this helps.
