Constructor is static or non static
java
Solution
Your second example hits the spot. `this` reference is available in the constructor, which means constructor is executed against some object - the one that is currently being created.
In principle when you create a new object (by using `new` operator), JVM will allocate some memory for it and then call a constructor on that newly created object. Also JVM makes sure that no other method is called before the constructor (that's what makes it special).
Actually, on machine level, constructor is a function with one special, implicit `this` parameter. This special parameter (passed by the runtime) makes the difference between object and static methods. In other words:
foo.bar(42);
is translated to:
bar(foo, 42);
where first parameter is named `this`. On the other hand `static` methods are called as-is:
Foo.bar(42);
translates to:
bar(42);
`Foo` here is just a namespace existing barely in the source code.
Problem
As per standard book constructor is a special type of function which is used to initialize objects.As constructor is defined as a function and inside class function can have only two type either static or non static.My doubt is what constructor is ? ``` 1.)As constructor is called without object so it must be static Test test =new Test();//Test() is being called without object so must be static ``` My doubt is if constructor is static method then how can we frequently used this inside constructor ``` Test(){ System.out.println(this); } ``` Does the output `Test@12aw212` mean constructors are non-static?
