    Comment on it

    When return type of the method of super class is different than the return type of method of subclass and it is also a method overriding then it is known as covariant return type.

    And here the return type is non primitive. I am writing the simple example of covariant return type.

    class Abc{ 
    Abc get(){return this;}
    }

    Class Xyz extends Abc{
    Xyz get(){return this;}
    void show(){ System.out.println("Got covariant type.!!!"); }

    public static void main(String args[]){
    new Xyz().get().show ();

    }
    O/P: Got covariant type.!
