…rameters (C#) Issue dotnet#1029 While overall parameterless constructors in structs are valid from IL perspective, without a convenient way to declare them they were virtually nonexistent. As we performed more and more testing, we kept discovering cases where parameterless struct constructors caused inconsistent behavior in libraries or even in some versions of CLR. After reconsidering the potential issues arising from breaking long standing assumptions, we decided it was best for our users to restore the requirement on struct constructors to always have formal parameters.
