Rauno, I don’t think you should use it anywhere

It’s just an interesting corner case.

Am I missing something? What could you use this quirk for? Forgive me, I’m a frontend developer.

class String
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
String String = new String();
}
}

URL being there upset the compiler . Iit ain’t valid, unless you are referencing this label somwhere in your code

You can only do it once though. This doesn’t work

main(…) {

}
