So I don't java (or ms java either) anymore. Why can't you just reference the class itself?
the 2nd does that already
in the first you can't, as
getClass()
is not a static method (wouldn't even make sense if it was)The GP is saying that
String
is a class already, you shouldn't have to callString.class
.Personally, I'm away from it for long enough that I don't remember either.
