Class.getModifiers() returns "static" for anonymous classes

XMLWordPrintable

       Oracle's implementation returns "static" for anonymous classes, which
      contradicts the spec.

      Java 7 spec:
              An anonymous class is always implicitly final (8.1.1.2).
              An anonymous class is always an inner class (8.1.3); it is never
      static (8.1.1, 8.5.1).
              The modifier static pertains only to member classes (8.5.1), not to
      top level or local or anonymous classes.
