Which line of code will not be acceptable to the compiler?

public class XBox{
volatile int root = 20; //1
private XBox() //2
{
volatile int i = 30; //3
}
private void XBox() //4
{
int local = 30;
}
}

What does the explanation "Only member variable can be volatile or transient." with the correct answer (3)?

that line should be
"What does the explanation "Only member variable can be volatile or transient." with the correct answer (3) mean?"

It means you can apply volatile or transient only to a member variable i.e. instance or static. Not to a local variable.
