Message:

static variables in static functions

Posted by aarti on July 22, 2000 at 1:08 PM

Hi,
Why I am not able to declare static variables in static functions? It is possible overcome this limitation. But does the java language syntax impose such a restriction?

static int statFunc()
{
static int i=8;
}
generates an error .

Sorry if this question is redundant
