CS0112 re member modifier combinations

[RexJaeschke]

Type of issue

Missing information

Description

I'm working on the Ecma C# standard, on the V11 proposal for "static abstracts in interfaces," and while compiling some tests, I generated some CS0112 messages.

The help text for this error says

A static member 'function' cannot be marked as override, virtual or abstract

However, V11 added the ability for certain members in interfaces (methods, properties, events, and operators) to be static abstract and static virtual. As such, I propose that sentence be changed to something like the following:

A static member 'function' in a class or struct cannot be marked as override, virtual or abstract.

And optionally add

(Interface methods can be static abstract or static virtual.)
