wait/notify

[enediel Gonza]

regarding this expression:
Runtime error
"A call to wait/notify must be within synchronized code. It will throw an error message ..."

My question :
?Under any circunstances the compiler detects this problem to produce a compiling error instead of a runtime error?

Thanks in advance for the answers

No. It's only at runtime that this error is detected.

Yes,it throws an exception at runtime:
java.lang.IllegalMonitorStateException: current thread not owner
