Most of the time a block of code is empty when a piece of code is really missing. So such empty block must be either filled or removed.

Noncompliant Code Example

for ($i = 0; $i < 42; $i++){}  // Empty on purpose or missing piece of code ?

Exceptions

When a block contains a comment, this block is not considered to be empty.

Having two cases in a switch statement or two branches in an if chain with the same implementation is at best duplicate code, and at worst a coding error. If the same logic is truly needed for both instances, then in an if chain they should be combined, or for a switch, one should fall through to the other.

Noncompliant Code Example

switch ($i) {
  case 1:
    doSomething();
    break;
  case 2:
    doSomethingDifferent();
    break;
  case 3:  // Noncompliant; duplicates case 1's implementation
    doSomething();
    break;
  default:
    doTheRest();
}

if ($a >= 0 && $a < 10) {
  doTheThing();
else if ($a >= 10 && $a < 20) {
  doTheOtherThing();
}
else if ($a >= 20 && $a < 50) {
  doTheThing();  // Noncompliant; duplicates first condition
}
else {
  doTheRest();
}

if ($b == 0) {
  doOneMoreThing();
}
else {
  doOneMoreThing(); // Noncompliant; duplicates then-branch
}

var b = a ? 12 > 4 : 4;  // Noncompliant; always results in the same value

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:

function run() {
  prepare('action1');                              // Non-Compliant - 'action1' is duplicated 3 times
  execute('action1');
  release('action1');
}

Compliant Solution

ACTION_1 = 'action1';

function run() {
  prepare(ACTION_1);
  execute(ACTION_1);
  release(ACTION_1);
}

Exceptions

To prevent generating some false-positives, literals having less than 5 characters are excluded.

LongVariable

Since: 0.2

Detects when a field, formal or local variable is declared with a long name.

Example

class Something {
    protected $reallyLongIntName = -3; // VIOLATION - Field
    public static function main( array $interestingArgumentsList[] ) { // VIOLATION - Formal
        $otherReallyLongName = -5; // VIOLATION - Local
        for ($interestingIntIndex = 0; // VIOLATION - For
             $interestingIntIndex < 10;
             $interestingIntIndex++ ) {
        }
