Why would you want that? And no, The JVM on startup looks for that. Apparently prior to Java 7 you could through the usage of static blocks but not now. No good point to do so though

Yes you can run but you have to exit at the end of static block this is Upto java 1.6.but in java 7 they removed and in java8 you can use javaFX and run your code
