i want to make a program that contains two main classes and they call each other.

class Main1
	{
	public static void main(String arg[])
		{
			for(int i=0;i<5;i++)
				System.out.println(i);
		Main2 m1=new Main2();
		}
	}
class Main2
	{
	public static void main(String arg[])
		{
			static int j=0;
			for(int i=0;i<5;i++)
				System.out.println(i);
			if(j==3)
			break;
			j++;
		Main1 m1=new Main2();
		}
	}

it is the code that i implemented. i use static variable so that i can control the no of calls but this shows an error when i use static variable.

please solve it for me..

To control the loop like that you just need an ordinary local variable within the method (which cannot, by definition, be static). If you need a single value that is shared between all instances of the class and all methods of the class then declare it static, but outside any method.
