Is synchronized inherited in Java?

by

No, you will always have to write synchronized. If you call the synchronized method of the super class this will of course be a synchronized call. synchronized is not part of the method signature.

See http://gee.cs.oswego.edu/dl/cpj/mechanics.html for detailed description from Doug Lea, Java threading boss (or so).
