Java non-access modifiers

In this section I will let you know only about the non-access modifiers which are covered by the Java Certification Oca 7 Programmer I exam :

1. abstract;
2. final;
3. static.

A Java developer uses non-access modifiers to assign special privileges, responsibilities, and behavior to the Java types. Usually, non-access modifiers are used to change the default properties of a Java class and its members.

By applying the abstract non-access modifier to the definition of a class, the class will became an abstract class. This will prevent other classes to create objects of this class.
