I guess you meant:
class A
{
class B;
}
class A.B
{
// implementation
}
Ideally both styles would be supported.
Actually I had meant this instead, which reduces duplication
class A
{
}
class A.B
{
// implementation
}
There should be no need to define class B inside class A, because
the compiler can easily know that class A.B means that B is
included inside A. It adds on some more work for the compiler,
but it's doable.
However, I'm not so sure how useful such a thing really is if all
it does is save on adding indentations for sub classes.
