     Technically speaking, there is no such thing as a "static inner
class."  By definition, an "inner class" is non-static.

     There's a good introduction to nested classes (both kinds) at

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/javaOO/nested.html

Have you read it?  If not, do so: I think you'll find it helpful.
If you are still unsure after reading it, post again -- with more
detail about what confuses you.
