Might it be planned to make the { } optional when writing a anonymous class?

object  : xyz(...) {   }

Seems like a minor inconsistency since they are optional with 'normal' classes

[gildor]

Probably make sense to create an issue

[Dico]

But what is the point of object : xyz(...) {} vs. xyz(...)

[Dico]

Only difference is when you use reflection

[Daniel]

xyz could be abstract for example

[gildor]

abstract class without abstract methods? For sure it’s possible, but probably not a most common case

[Dico]

There's a good reason for them to be optional with normal classes, not with anonymous ones.

[Dico]

A reason for them not to be optional with anonymous class is that if you don't override something, you probably didn't intend for there to be an anonymous class
