This regards the PREVIEW JEP 492.

[The fix to the spec in JDK-8346100 was itself broken.]

The issue regards an anonymous class instance creation expression that creates an instance that is a *subclass of a local class that is in a static context*. For example:

```
class O {
    static void foo(int x) { // static context, so no enclosing instance
        class X { /* capture x */ } // inner local class in a static context
        class U {
            static void test() { new X(){...}; } // just as bad as saying `new X()`
        }
    }
}
```

The anonymous class instance creation expression should be forbidden (as it would be if it was just `new X()`).

The condition in the draft spec should read:

- If *C* is an anonymous class, then:

    - If the class instance creation expression occurs in a static context,
        then *i* has no immediately enclosing instance. **If the direct
        superclass of *C* is an inner local class *L* that occurs in a static
        context, then let *S* be the nearest `static` method declaration,
        `static` field declaration, or static initializer that encloses the
        declaration of *L*. If the nearest `static` method declaration, `static`
        field declaration, or static initializer that encloses the class
        instance creation expression is not *S*, then a compile-time error
        occurs.**
