Can We Declare Main() Method Final in Java?

Yes, we can declare the main () method as final in Java.

public class Demo
{ 
    public final static void main(String[] args) 
    { 
        System.out.println("Main Method"); 
    } 
}

But, In inheritance we cannot declare main method as final in parent class. It throwss compile time error - Cannot override the final method from Parent.

public class Parent {
	public final static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
		System.out.println("Parent called");
	}
}
 
class Child extends Parent {
	public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
		System.out.println("Child called");
	}
}
