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 42.
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.

Return an empty collection instead of null. Open
return null;
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
Returning null
instead of an actual array or collection forces callers of the method to explicitly test for nullity, making them more
complex and less readable.
Moreover, in many cases, null
is used as a synonym for empty.
Noncompliant Code Example
public static List<Result> getResults() { return null; // Noncompliant } public static Result[] getResults() { return null; // Noncompliant } public static void main(String[] args) { Result[] results = getResults(); if (results != null) { // Nullity test required to prevent NPE for (Result result: results) { /* ... */ } } }
Compliant Solution
public static List<Result> getResults() { return Collections.emptyList(); // Compliant } public static Result[] getResults() { return new Result[0]; } public static void main(String[] args) { for (Result result: getResults()) { /* ... */ } }
See
- CERT, MSC19-C. - For functions that return an array, prefer returning an empty array over a null value
- CERT, MET55-J. - Return an empty array or collection instead of a null value for methods that return an array or collection
A "NullPointerException" could be thrown; "busStops" is nullable here. Open
busStops.setLayoutManager(linearLayoutManager);
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
A reference to null
should never be dereferenced/accessed. Doing so will cause a NullPointerException
to be thrown. At
best, such an exception will cause abrupt program termination. At worst, it could expose debugging information that would be useful to an attacker, or
it could allow an attacker to bypass security measures.
Note that when they are present, this rule takes advantage of @CheckForNull
and @Nonnull
annotations defined in JSR-305 to understand which values are and are not nullable except when @Nonnull
is used
on the parameter to equals
, which by contract should always work with null.
Noncompliant Code Example
@CheckForNull String getName(){...} public boolean isNameEmpty() { return getName().length() == 0; // Noncompliant; the result of getName() could be null, but isn't null-checked }
Connection conn = null; Statement stmt = null; try{ conn = DriverManager.getConnection(DB_URL,USER,PASS); stmt = conn.createStatement(); // ... }catch(Exception e){ e.printStackTrace(); }finally{ stmt.close(); // Noncompliant; stmt could be null if an exception was thrown in the try{} block conn.close(); // Noncompliant; conn could be null if an exception was thrown }
private void merge(@Nonnull Color firstColor, @Nonnull Color secondColor){...} public void append(@CheckForNull Color color) { merge(currentColor, color); // Noncompliant; color should be null-checked because merge(...) doesn't accept nullable parameters }
void paint(Color color) { if(color == null) { System.out.println("Unable to apply color " + color.toString()); // Noncompliant; NullPointerException will be thrown return; } ... }

- MITRE, CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference
- CERT, EXP34-C. - Do not dereference null pointers
- CERT, EXP01-J. - Do not use a null in a case where an object is required
Add a private constructor to hide the implicit public one. Open
public class BusStorage {
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
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.
Define a constant instead of duplicating this literal " LIKE " 5 times. Open
String query = "SELECT * FROM " + TABLE_ITEMS + " WHERE " + BUS_STOP_DESC + " LIKE " + stopName + ";";
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
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.
