One of annoying error while overriding Java method in Eclipse IDE is must override a superclass method error , This error is quite frequent when importing Java projects and still I haven't seen any permanent solution of it. Must override a super class method error comes in Eclipse, if you have Java Class that implements interface and overrides method from interface and uses @Override annotation . Unfortunately Eclipse defaults to Java 1.5, which only recognize @Override annotation for overriding method from super class and not from interface. This creates lots of confusion between Java programmers as not every one is aware of this subtle difference of using @Override annotation with class and interface methods and they start looking classpath and path suspiciously. @Override annotation for interface methods are only available from Java 1.6 and if you use @Override while overriding interface methodthan you will get must override a superclass method error. In this Java and Eclipse tutorial we will see how to fix must override a superclass method error in eclipse but before that we will reproduce this error in a manner which will clear that Eclipse will complain only for methods which is overridden from interface.
