This means that you can use them without creating an instance of a class. You can't change a static method into an instance method in a subclass. Define Net Beans. NetBeans refers to both a platform framework for Java desktop applications, and an integrated development environment (IDE) for developing with Java, JavaScript, C, C++,and others. What is an abstract method? An abstract method is a method that is declared without an implementation (without braces, and followed by a semicolon), like this: abstract void moveTo(double deltaX, double deltaY);
