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.

- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
Unused parameters are misleading. Whatever the value passed to such parameters is, the behavior will be the same.
Noncompliant Code Example
function doSomething($a, $b) { // "$a" is unused return compute($b); }
Compliant Solution
function doSomething($b) { return compute($b); }
Exceptions
Functions in classes that override a class or implement interfaces are ignored.
class C extends B { function doSomething($a, $b) { // no issue reported on $b compute($a); } }

Remove this unused "$hostURL" private field. Open
private $hostURL = "/";
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
If a private
field is declared but not used in the program, it can be considered dead code and should therefore be removed. This will
improve maintainability because developers will not wonder what the variable is used for.
Noncompliant Code Example
class MyClass { private $foo = 4; //foo is unused public function compute($a) { return $a * 4; } }
Compliant Solution
class MyClass { public function compute($a) { return $a * 4; } }

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.
