yes we can like this

public class dd {

public static void main(String[] args) {

dd d = new dd();

String[] arr = new String[2];

d.main(arr, "s");

}

public static void main(String[] args,String s) {

// TODO Auto-generated method stub

System.out.println("hi");

}

Yes but only the main(String[] args) version will be called when you try to run the class as a program.

Or did you mean override? i.e. put a main() method in a class derived from a class which already has one? If so the answer is again yes but if you execute the base class it is the base class's main() method which will be executed (because static methods aren't despatched dynamically like non-static methods).

No, I meant what I wrote (finally): 'hide'. As it is used in the JLS.

Basicaly it is a method forget about main.Only remember public static void main(String []arg){//do}this method implicitly call by jvm.
