Default constructors for interfaces with default implementation classes ?

[Sean Eagan]

Given:

interface Foo default _Foo {}

class _Foo implements Foo {

  _Foo();

}

It is not currently allowed to instantiate Foo:

new Foo();

Should this be allowed ?

If not, then it also shouldn't be allowed to have a default clause on an interface unless it declares at least one constructor.

Sorry for the delay here. This is an excellent question. I don't see the value in having a default class without any constructors either.

Filing a bug is probably the best way to summon Gilad on this. :)

Thanks!
