super() and this() Rules are FINALLY DEAD! | JEP 513 | Java 25 - Flexible Constructor Bodies

For 25 years, we’ve been forced to make this() / super() the first statement in a constructor. No more. 🚀

In Java 25, JEP 513 (Flexible Constructor Bodies) officially becomes a permanent feature. This means you can finally write logic, perform validations, and declare variables before delegating to a parent constructor.

No more awkward static factory methods or private helper functions just to prepare arguments for super().

What’s covered in this clip:
✅ How the "Constructor Prologue" works in JEP 513.
✅ Why this makes validation and field initialization much safer.
✅ Real-world code: The "Before vs. After" transformation.
✅ The specific rules you still need to follow regarding the this keyword.

This is one of the biggest "quality of life" improvements in Java history.
