Nested Class

• A class which is a member of a class: unlimited access to class members
• Static nested class: associated with enclosing class not its instance; instance variables and methods of the enclosing class may be used only via an object reference, not directly
• Nested within package level classes
• Non-static nested class: also called inner class
• abstract, public, final, private nested classes
• Cannot be native, transient, volatile, or synchronized
