Keyword for the outer class from an anonymous inner class [duplicate]

Question

This question already has an answer here:

• Getting hold of the outer class object from the inner class object 9 answers

In the following snippet:

public class a {
    public void otherMethod(){}
    public void doStuff(String str, InnerClass b){}
    public void method(a){
        doStuff("asd",
            new InnerClass(){
                public void innerMethod(){
                    otherMethod();
                }
            }
        );
    }
}

Is there a keyword to refer to the outer class from the inner class? Basically what I want to do is outer.otherMethod(), or something of the like, but can't seem to find anything.

Answer 1

In general you use OuterClassName.this to refer to the enclosing instance of the outer class.

In your example that would be a.this.otherMethod()

Answer 2

OuterClassName.this.outerClassMethod();
