answer to your questions.
1.How to prevent a method being over-ridden?
just add the keyword 'final' in method declaration.

eg. public final void myMethod() { bla.. bla... bla... }

2. How to require a method to be over-ridden?
I am not getting what u want to ask here.
every method which is not declared final can be over-ridden.

3. How to call method from the super class?
an overridden method could be bypassed an the super method could be called by using super keyword; eg:- super.myMethod( );

FYI - That'll get you most of the way, but there's still a workaround.
