Is it possible to write a class that, when instantiated by another class, requires the call of a certain method, or else will not compile?

For example:

I have two classes: A & B.

I want to write B such that when A instantiates B, it must call a certain method in B from somewhere within A. If that certain method is not called, I want to keep the class from compiling.

Is this possible?

You can't do that. The best way to implement what you're asking is to implement a constructor in class B that calls the method you require. Do not provide any constructors that do not call the method. Once you've done this, it is impossible to instantiate class B without the method being executed.
