Method registerOrganization
has 5 arguments (exceeds 4 allowed). Consider refactoring. Open

Add a private constructor to hide the implicit public one. Open

Utility classes, which are collections of static
members, are not meant to be instantiated. Even abstract utility classes, which can
be extended, should not have public constructors.
Java adds an implicit public constructor to every class which does not define at least one explicitly. Hence, at least one non-public constructor should be defined.
Noncompliant Code Example
class StringUtils { // Noncompliant public static String concatenate(String s1, String s2) { return s1 + s2; } }
Compliant Solution
class StringUtils { // Compliant private StringUtils() { throw new IllegalStateException("Utility class"); } public static String concatenate(String s1, String s2) { return s1 + s2; } }
Exceptions
When class contains public static void main(String[] args)
method it is not considered as utility class and will be ignored by this
rule.
Identical blocks of code found in 2 locations. Consider refactoring. Open
public static class MacaroonsInterceptor implements IClientInterceptor {
private String macaroon;
MacaroonsInterceptor(String macaroon) {

Duplicated Code
Duplicated code can lead to software that is hard to understand and difficult to change. The Don't Repeat Yourself (DRY) principle states:
Every piece of knowledge must have a single, unambiguous, authoritative representation within a system.
When you violate DRY, bugs and maintenance problems are sure to follow. Duplicated code has a tendency to both continue to replicate and also to diverge (leaving bugs as two similar implementations differ in subtle ways).
Tuning
This issue has a mass of 69.
We set useful threshold defaults for the languages we support but you may want to adjust these settings based on your project guidelines.
The threshold configuration represents the minimum mass a code block must have to be analyzed for duplication. The lower the threshold, the more fine-grained the comparison.
If the engine is too easily reporting duplication, try raising the threshold. If you suspect that the engine isn't catching enough duplication, try lowering the threshold. The best setting tends to differ from language to language.
See codeclimate-duplication
's documentation for more information about tuning the mass threshold in your .codeclimate.yml
