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.

Having too many return statements in a function increases the function's essential complexity because the flow of execution is broken each time a return statement is encountered. This makes it harder to read and understand the logic of the function.

function myFunction(){ // Noncompliant as there are 4 return statements if (condition1) { return true; } else { if (condition2) { return false; } else { return true; } } return false; }

Add a "case default" clause to this "switch" statement. Open
switch (self::$record) {
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
The requirement for a final case default
clause is defensive programming. The clause should either take appropriate action, or contain
a suitable comment as to why no action is taken. Even when the switch
covers all current values of an enum
, a default case
should still be used because there is no guarantee that the enum
won't be extended.
Noncompliant Code Example
switch ($param) { //missing default clause case 0: do_something(); break; case 1: do_something_else(); break; } switch ($param) { default: // default clause should be the last one error(); break; case 0: do_something(); break; case 1: do_something_else(); break; }
Compliant Solution
switch ($param) { case 0: do_something(); break; case 1: do_something_else(); break; default: error(); break; }

Shadowing fields with a local variable is a bad practice that reduces code readability: it makes it confusing to know whether the field or the variable is being used.
Noncompliant Code Example
class Foo { public $myField; public function doSomething() { $myField = 0; ... } }

Programmers should not comment out code as it bloats programs and reduces readability.
Unused code should be deleted and can be retrieved from source control history if required.

Remove or refactor this statement. Open
$absValues['declaredOrig'] === $absValues['originallyDeclared'];
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
Any statement (other than a null statement, which means a statement containing only a semicolon ;
) which has no side effect and does
not result in a change of control flow will normally indicate a programming error, and therefore should be refactored.
Noncompliant Code Example
$a == 1; // Noncompliant; was assignment intended? $a < $b; // Noncompliant; have we forgotten to assign the result to a variable?
See
- MITRE, CWE-482 - Comparing instead of Assigning
- CERT, MSC12-CPP. - Detect and remove code that has no effect
- MISRA C:2004, 14.2 - All non-null statements shall either have at least one side-effect however executed, or cause control flow to change.
