CODSTA.MAIN

The 'main()' method must be "public", "static" and "void"

Description

This rule flags any `main()' method that is not "public", "static", and "void".

The `main()' method must be "public", "static", and "void", and it must accept a single argument of type String[].

Example

 
 package CODSTA;
 
 public class MAIN {
    static void main(String[] args) {// main method is
	 	 	 	  //not a public.
         System.out.println("hello");
     }
 }

Repair

Use following signature for a `main()' method.

 public static void main(String[] args)
