Right. While it is possible to do this, it does make it difficult to
read the code. Better to use two different variable names. Then you
never have to worry about which variable you're actually using, or
mistakenly use the instance variable because you *thought* the local one
was still in scope, when it was not.
Actually the one exception I employ is with setter methods:
public void setFoo( Object foo ) {
this.foo = foo;
}
