Bug Report

In classes, accessors (aka getters/setters) and generators can't be named with constructor. They're Syntax Errors defined in spec.

References:

• Early errors of class definitions. Please focus on the second point of the MethodDefinition section.
• Class accessors and generators are SpecialMethods.

💻 Code

class C1 {
    get constructor() {
        return
    }
    set constructor(value) {}
}

class C2 {
    *constructor() {}
}

🙁 Actual behavior

No errors reported.

🙂 Expected behavior

TypeScript should report errors for misusing constructor as accessor name for Line 2 and Line 5, and report error for misusing constructor as generator for Line 9 in the example above.
