Code: Select all

class TestClass{
  public static void main(String[] args){
     ConnectionHelper c = null; 
     c.ping(); 
  }
}

Its saying

That's right. It will compile and run fine (of course, without any output).

But ping() method is private:

Code: Select all

class ConnectionHelper{
  static int idle_timeout;
  static String url;
  private static void ping(){ } //order of modifiers doesn't matter
  static public final void check(){ } //order of modifiers doesn't matter
}

And this makes the code fail to compile.
