Question about syntax

[germina]

What does it mean SomeClass.this in java? Please help, i'm not a java-programmer.

'this' is a reference to a class's self instance.

yes, but I asked about 'SomeClass.this':
class FooClass extends SomeClass {
.........
OtherClass obj = new OtherClass(SomeClass.this);
..........
};
It's type casting or something else?

 

[sedj]

its an enclosing class reference :
