Class SyntheticConstructorCreator

java.lang.Object

org.ek9lang.compiler.phase2.SyntheticConstructorCreator

All Implemented Interfaces:

Consumer<IAggregateSymbol>

final class SyntheticConstructorCreator
extends Object
implements Consumer<IAggregateSymbol>

Some aggregates like classes, components, etc. Can be defined without a constructor.

If that is the case then a synthetic constructor(s) can be added. This is a bit like Java in terms of not requiring the developer to declare obvious constructors. The EK9 developer can use 'default Name' where Name is the class/record etc.

An EXTERN type (Java-backed: a built-in, or a defines extern library) that declares NO constructor at all gets none: it is not constructible from EK9. The compiler does not generate an extern type, so it must not promise a constructor its Java side was never declared to offer. Panic is the live case (Steve, decision 10, 2026-10-05): compiler-only, so Panic() is METHOD_NOT_RESOLVED exactly as Panic("x", 4) is.
