//: polymorphism/covarianreturn.java

package object;

class Grain{
    public String toString()
    {
        return "Grain";//返回
    }
}
class Wheat extends Grain{
    public String toString()
    {
        return "Wheat"; //返回
    }
}
class Mill{
    Grain process()
    {
        return new Grain();
    }
}
class WheatMill extends Mill{
    Wheat process(){return new Wheat();}
}
public class CovariantReturn{
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        Mill m = new Mill();
        Grain g = m.process();
        System.out.println(g);
        m = new WheatMill();
        g = m.process();
        System.out.println(g);
    }
