Is there a way to have a static method in Kotlin?

so skip Class2 name

don’t forget that you can define a

fun

by itself – there’s no need to surround it by a

class

and

@JvmStatic

if you wan it to be accessible from java

Add function inside companion object, all fun inside that will regard as final, you should add annotation processor @JvmStatic. This annotation tells jvm you function or field is static.
