Java multiple Classes and multiple main methods, execute all main methods

Question

Im new to Java and I just wrote some Code in which I used two classes with main methods. Id like to execute both main methods, one after another. Is there a possibility to execute both of them at once in a specified order?

imFirst.java

public class imFirst {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("I want to be the first one executed!");
    }
}

imSecond.java

public class imSecond {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("I want to be the second one executed!");
    }
}

these are in one package, executed via eclipse.

Answer 1

You can call imSecond's main from imFirst:

public class imFirst {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("I want to be the first one executed!");
        imSecond.main(args);
    }
}

Or can be the opposite:

public class imSecond {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("I want to be the second one executed!");
        imFirst.main(args);
    }
}

Do it depending of your needs. But don't do both things at the same time or you can get an endless loop of both methods calling each other.

As a side note: use proper java naming conventions. Class names should be CamelCase.
