Hi all...
I have an interesting questing..,
Suppose U have a class with 2 overloaded method like this:

 public void omethod(String param){
  System.out.println("from string");
 }
 public void omethod(Object obj) {
  System.out.println("from object");
}
Ok...from main when u call omethod(null) you get the message from string

Anywone knows why?

LOOP

Oki doki

I found the answer.Here it goes....

Java would every time try and call the most specific method instead of generalized one. String is more specific (lower in inheritence chain) than object, and the fact that null is assignable to String makes the method taking String called.

Try putting in another method which takes a Hashtable or an Array(or anything else for that matter) and you will get a compile time error.

The order of the methods does not make any difference.

Thanks to java.forum
