title: Access sub class constant in static parent method
body: <p>Is it possible to access a child class constant from within a static method in the parent class?</p>
  
  <pre><code>public class Model  {
  
      public static void someMethod(){
          HERE I WANT TO GET THE MODEL_NAME constant!
      }
  }
  
  public class EventModel extends Model {
      public static final String MODEL_NAME = "events";
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and in some other place I call:</p>
  
  <pre><code>EventModel.someMethod();
  </code></pre>
