Description Markus Keller CLA 2005-01-25 14:45:10 EST 
I20050118-1015

public enum Enu {
    A(1, 3), B(1, 3), C(1, 3) { }
   	;
    public Enu(int i, int j) { }
}

According to javac and JLS3 8.8.3, enum constructors are implicitly private and
cannot be declared public or protected.

Possible patch that would report:
----------
1. ERROR in c:\tests_sources\X.java
 (at line 4)
	public	X(int i, int j) { }
		^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Illegal modifier for the enum constructor; only private is permitted.
----------
1 problem
