This feature is new in the JDK 1.5 and is intended to reduce the Java app verbosity. Static imports allow you to put into scope a set of methods and fields. Using static imports, allows you to omit qualifying class names. Here’s an example:
import static java.lang.System.out;import static java.lang.Math.*;public class StaticImport{ public static void main(String[]arr) { out.println("This Static Import"); out.println(ceil(10.5));}}
