Q:

Java Method Overriding - accessing methods in parent - is this possible?

Let's say I create an instance of a class and override one of its methods at the same time - like this
MyClass fred = new MyClass() {
    @Override
    public void mymethod() {
        super.mymethod();
        //call something here
    }
};

Now let's imagine I want to call a local method which has the SAME name and SAME (lack of) parameters as my overridden method - e.g. I have 
public void mymethod() {
    //my stuff in here
}

How can I call that from within the overridden method (on the line //call something here)???
Is that even possible?  Using
this.mymethod();  

causes an endless loop (the overriden method is simply calling itself)
Is there a way of accessing this method (other than via a static reference perhaps?)
Sorry if this is a common question - it's a hard thing to search for and the one question I found had no replies and wasn't really that well-phrased so I'm trying myself!!

A:

I don't have a complier handy so I'm not 100% sure here, but try this:
ParentClass.this.myMethod();
