Duplicated string literals make the process of refactoring error-prone, since you must be sure to update all occurrences.
On the other hand, constants can be referenced from many places, but only need to be updated in a single place.
Noncompliant Code Example
With the default threshold of 3:
public void run() { prepare("action1"); // Noncompliant - "action1" is duplicated 3 times execute("action1"); release("action1"); } @SuppressWarning("all") // Compliant - annotations are excluded private void method1() { /* ... */ } @SuppressWarning("all") private void method2() { /* ... */ } public String method3(String a) { System.out.println("'" + a + "'"); // Compliant - literal "'" has less than 5 characters and is excluded return ""; // Compliant - literal "" has less than 5 characters and is excluded }
Compliant Solution
private static final String ACTION_1 = "action1"; // Compliant public void run() { prepare(ACTION_1); // Compliant execute(ACTION_1); release(ACTION_1); }
Exceptions
To prevent generating some false-positives, literals having less than 5 characters are excluded.

There are several reasons for a method not to have a method body:
- It is an unintentional omission, and should be fixed to prevent an unexpected behavior in production.
- It is not yet, or never will be, supported. In this case an
UnsupportedOperationException
should be thrown. - The method is an intentionally-blank override. In this case a nested comment should explain the reason for the blank override.
Noncompliant Code Example
public void doSomething() { } public void doSomethingElse() { }
Compliant Solution

Exceptions

Correctly updating a static
field from a non-static method is tricky to get right and could easily lead to bugs if there are multiple
class instances and/or multiple threads in play. Ideally, static
fields are only updated from synchronized static
methods.
This rule raises an issue each time a static
field is updated from a non-static method.

public class MyClass { private static int count = 0; public void doSomething() { //... count++; // Noncompliant } }

The underlying implementation of String::replaceAll
calls the java.util.regex.Pattern.compile()
method each time it is
called even if the first argument is not a regular expression. This has a significant performance cost and therefore should be used with care.
When String::replaceAll
is used, the first argument should be a real regular expression. If it’s not the case,
String::replace
does exactly the same thing as String::replaceAll
without the performance drawback of the regex.
This rule raises an issue for each String::replaceAll
used with a String
as first parameter which doesn’t contains
special regex character or pattern.
Noncompliant Code Example
String init = "Bob is a Bird... Bob is a Plane... Bob is Superman!"; String changed = init.replaceAll("Bob is", "It's"); // Noncompliant changed = changed.replaceAll("\\.\\.\\.", ";"); // Noncompliant
Compliant Solution
String init = "Bob is a Bird... Bob is a Plane... Bob is Superman!"; String changed = init.replace("Bob is", "It's"); changed = changed.replace("...", ";");
Or, with a regex:
String init = "Bob is a Bird... Bob is a Plane... Bob is Superman!"; String changed = init.replaceAll("\\w*\\sis", "It's"); changed = changed.replaceAll("\\.{3}", ";");
