正如Jon已经说过的，静态变量，也称为类变量，是跨类实例存在的变量。

我在这里找到了一个例子:

public class StaticVariable
{
  static int noOfInstances;
  StaticVariable()
  {
    noOfInstances++;
  }
  public static void main(String[] args)
  {
    StaticVariable sv1 = new StaticVariable();
    System.out.println("No. of instances for sv1 : " + sv1.noOfInstances);

    StaticVariable sv2 = new StaticVariable();
    System.out.println("No. of instances for sv1 : "  + sv1.noOfInstances);
    System.out.println("No. of instances for st2 : "  + sv2.noOfInstances);

    StaticVariable sv3 = new StaticVariable();
    System.out.println("No. of instances for sv1 : "  + sv1.noOfInstances);
    System.out.println("No. of instances for sv2 : "  + sv2.noOfInstances);
    System.out.println("No. of instances for sv3 : "  + sv3.noOfInstances);
  }
}

程序输出如下:

正如我们在这个例子中看到的，每个对象都有自己的类变量副本。

C:\java>java StaticVariable
No. of instances for sv1 : 1
No. of instances for sv1 : 2
No. of instances for st2 : 2
No. of instances for sv1 : 3
No. of instances for sv2 : 3
No. of instances for sv3 : 3

假设类永远不会有多个实例，那么哪个实例占用更多内存:

私有静态最终int ID = 250; 或 private final int ID = 250;

我已经理解，静态将引用类类型，在内存中只有一个副本，而非静态将在每个实例变量的新内存位置。但是在内部，如果我们只是比较同一个类的1个实例(即不会创建多个实例)，那么在1个静态final变量所使用的空间方面是否有任何开销?

从我所做的测试来看，静态最终变量与最终(非静态)变量是不一样的!最终(非静态)变量可以因对象而异!!但前提是在构造函数内部进行初始化!(如果它没有从构造函数初始化，那么它只是浪费内存，因为它为每个创建的不能更改的对象创建最终变量。)

例如:

class A
{
    final int f;
    static final int sf = 5;

    A(int num)
    {
        this.f = num;
    }

    void show()
    {
        System.out.printf("About Object: %s\n Final: %d\n Static Final: %d\n\n", this.toString(), this.f, sf);
    }

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        A ob1 = new A(14);
        ob1.show();

        A ob2 = new A(21);
        ob2.show();

    }
}

屏幕上显示的是:

关于对象:A@addbf1 最后:14 静态决赛:5分

关于对象:A@530daa 最后:21 静态决赛:5分

静态变量属于类(这意味着所有对象共享该变量)。非静态变量属于每个对象。

public class ExperimentFinal {

private final int a;
private static final int b = 999; 

public ExperimentFinal(int a) {
    super();
    this.a = a;
}
public int getA() {
    return a;
}
public int getB() {
    return b;
}
public void print(int a, int b) {
    System.out.println("final int: " + a + " \nstatic final int: " + b);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
    ExperimentFinal test = new ExperimentFinal(9);
    test.print(test.getA(), test.getB());
} }

正如你可以看到上面的例子，对于“final int”，我们可以为类的每个实例(对象)分配变量，然而对于“static final int”，我们应该在类中分配一个变量(静态变量属于类)。

虽然其他答案似乎很清楚地表明，通常没有理由使用非静态常数，但我找不到任何人指出，可以在常量变量上使用不同值的各种实例。

考虑下面的例子:

public class TestClass {
    private final static double NUMBER = Math.random();

    public TestClass () {
        System.out.println(NUMBER);
    }
}

创建三个TestClass实例将打印三次相同的随机值，因为只生成一个值并将其存储到静态常量中。

但是，当尝试下面的例子时:

public class TestClass {
    private final double NUMBER = Math.random();

    public TestClass () {
        System.out.println(NUMBER);
    }
}

创建三个TestClass实例现在将打印三个不同的随机值，因为每个实例都有自己随机生成的常量值。

我想不出在任何情况下，在不同的实例上有不同的常量值是真正有用的，但我希望这有助于指出静态韵母和非静态韵母之间有明显的区别。

这是另一个简单的例子来理解静态，静态final, final变量的用法。代码注释有适当的解释。

public class City {

    // base price that is always same for all objects[For all cities].
    private static double iphone_base_price = 10000;

    // this is total price = iphone_base_price+iphone_diff;
    private double iphone_citi_price;

    // extra price added to iphone_base_price. It is constant per city. Every
    // city has its own difference defined,
    private final double iphone_diff;

    private String cityName = "";

    // static final will be accessible everywhere within the class but cant be
    // changed once initialized.
    private static final String countryName = "India";

    public City(String cityName, double iphone_diff) {
        super();
        this.iphone_diff = iphone_diff;
        iphone_citi_price = iphone_base_price + iphone_diff;
        this.cityName = cityName;

    }

    /**
     * get phone price
     * 
     * @return
     */
    private double getPrice() {

        return iphone_citi_price;
    }

    /**
     * Get city name
     * 
     * @return
     */
    private String getCityName() {

        return cityName;
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        // 300 is the
        City newyork = new City("Newyork", 300);
        System.out.println(newyork.getPrice() + "  " + newyork.getCityName());

        City california = new City("California", 800);
        System.out.println(california.getPrice() + "  " + california.getCityName());

        // We cant write below statement as a final variable can not be
        // reassigned
        // california.iphone_diff=1000; //************************

        // base price is defined for a class and not per instances.
        // For any number of object creation, static variable's value would be the same
        // for all instances until and unless changed.
        // Also it is accessible anywhere inside a class.
        iphone_base_price = 9000;

        City delhi = new City("delhi", 400);
        System.out.println(delhi.getPrice() + "  " + delhi.getCityName());

        City moscow = new City("delhi", 500);
        System.out.println(moscow.getPrice() + "  " + moscow.getCityName());

        // Here countryName is accessible as it is static but we can not change it as it is final as well. 
        //Something are meant to be accessible with no permission to modify it. 
        //Try un-commenting below statements
        System.out.println(countryName);

        // countryName="INDIA";
        // System.out.println(countryName);

    }
