Compiler Error CS1530

Keyword 'new' is not allowed on elements defined in a namespace

It is not necessary to specify the new keyword on any construct that is in a namespace.

The following sample generates CS1530:

// CS1530.cs  
namespace a  
{  
   new class i   // CS1530  
   {  
   }  
  
   // try the following instead  
   class ii  
   {  
      public static void Main()  
      {  
      }  
   }  
}
