Compile-time Polymorphism or Run-time Polymorphism ?

[dejulial]

Hi everyone,

please check out the following code first: (I defined an anonymous inner class here)
__________________________________________________ ______________________

class Popcorn {
public void pop() {
System.out.println("popcorn");
}
}
class Food {
Popcorn p = new Popcorn() {
public void pop() {
System.out.println("anonymous popcorn");
}
};
}
__________________________________________________ _______________________

In this case, is it a compile-time polymorphism or a run-time polymorphism when the anonymous inner class is involved ?
Does the compiler know which pop() method to call at the compile-time?
Is there any way I can see if it is happening at compile-time or run-time?

Thanks a lot!!!

What happens when you compile and execute the program?

The javap command will disassemble the class file so you can see what the compiler generated.
