Cannot make a static reference to the non-static field memberVariable with private variable

Question

I created a enum with one private member variable. When i try to access the member variable the compiles states \'Cannot make a static reference to the non-static field memb

Answer 1

The main cause of error is : you are trying to make reference to private variable (memberVariable) of super class from inner implementation class.

To make error free code you can do either of following :

• you have to use super.memberVariable since memberVariable is not local to TheOnlyAndOnly()
• you can make int memberVariable public.

• you can do:

  TheOneAndOnly(1) {
      int memberVariable=4;
      @Override
      public int addValue(final int value) {
          return memberVariable + value;
      }
  };
