Possible for constructors to have different access modifiers & same param lists?

[Bob Graffagnino]

Is it possible to have a class with 2 constructors that take an int. One is public and the other is private.
class MyClass{
public MyClass(int i){}
private MyClass(int i){}
}

What does the compiler say? It doesn't like it, uh?

No, that is not possible. That is incorrect overloading. This applies to any method declared in the class too. You get the following error
message when you compile the code:
"Duplicate method declaration: MyClass(int)"

I'm at the test center now, so I didn't have access to a compiler. I may as well get this over with <gulp!>.

[Valentin Crettaz]

Then I apologize for my comments
Good luck and come back with some good news

[Brian Lugo]

Does the test center have internet access?
Which one is it? I will try to go to the same test center, Valentin will you help me when I am taking the test at that test center?

Brian, are you trying to corrupt me?

[Brian Lugo]

Yup I'll buy you couple of Beers
Bob - you need to relax right now. Don't think too much. Also, try to utilize full 2 hours of the test. Revise, Revise, Revise!! if you finish early and have some time left - Goodluck!

I gotcha

The test center only had internet access in their break room. No such luck in the examination room. I passed BTW with a 79%. I'll write more in the Certification results forum.
