PREVIEW JEP 492:

This regards the spec change document for the *preview* feature "Flexible Constructor Bodies". In 8.8.7.1 we give new conditions regarding the calculation of the immediately enclosing instance (if any) of a super call. In one of the conditions, the text currently reads:

"If the nearest static method declaration, static field declaration, or static initializer that encloses the **class instance creation expression** is not N, then a compile-time error occurs."

There is no class instance creation expression - this is a cut and paste error from similar text in 15.9.2. It should read instead:

"If the nearest static method declaration, static field declaration, or static initializer that encloses the **superclass constructor invocation** is not N, then a compile-time error occurs."
