Title Body

public class A { public void f1(String str) { System.out.println("A.f1(String)"); this.f1(1, str); } public void f1(int i, String str) { System.out.println("A.f1(int, String)"); } } public class B extends A { @Override public void f1(String str) { System.out.println("B.f1(String)"); super.f1(str); } @Override public void f1(int i, String str) { System.out.println("B.f1(int, String)"); super.f1(i, str); } } public class Main { public static void main(String[] args) { B b = new B(); b.f1("Hello"); } } I'm seeking that this code would output: B.f1(String) A.f1(String) A.f1(int, String) Yet I'm getting: B.f1(String) A.f1(String) B.f1(int, String) A.f1(int, String) I understand that under the context of B "this" in A.f1(String) is B's instance. Do I have the option to do the chain new B1().f1(String) -> (A's) f1(String) -> (A's) f1(int, String) ? This is a theoretical question, practically the solution would obviously be in A to implement a private function that both f1(String) and f1(int, String) would call. Thank you, Maxim.
