[Area] Modifiers [Syntax rule] The static modifier must not be applied to the new constructor Now the compiler issues an error when the static modifier is applied to the new method. For more information, see Constructors.
It was possible to apply the static modifier to the declaration of the new constructor method. This caused new MyClass(); to behave as a null operation. Instead, the statement MyClass::new(); would call the static new method, but that would not construct an object.
