Not here. I rearranged your source because I prefer opening and closing 
brackets to align. Here's the result: 

$ cat Main.java
public final class A
{
   public static void main( final java.lang.String[] args )
   {
      B.hello();
   }
}

public final class B
{
   public static void hello()
   {
      java.lang.System.out.println( "Hello!" );
   }
}

$ javac -version
javac 1.8.0_242

$ javac Main.java
Main.java:1: error: class A is public, should be declared in a file named 
A.java
public final class A
             ^
Main.java:9: error: class B is public, should be declared in a file named 
B.java
public final class B
             ^
2 errors

This is using Open Java 1.8 installed from the RedHat Fedora 31 package 
repository and is exactly what I'd expect to see, since the name of a non-
nested class declaration should match the sourcefile name.
