== Why is this an issue?

The Java Language Specification recommends listing modifiers in the following order:


. Annotations
. public
. protected
. private
. abstract
. static
. final
. transient
. volatile
. synchronized
. native
. default
. strictfp

Not following this convention has no technical impact, but will reduce the code's readability because most developers are used to the standard order.

=== Noncompliant code example

[source,java]
----
static public void main(String[] args) {   // Noncompliant
}
----

=== Compliant solution

[source,java]
----
public static void main(String[] args) {   // Compliant
}
----
