Cognitive Complexity is a measure of how hard the control flow of a method is to understand. Methods with high Cognitive Complexity will be difficult to maintain.

Nesting try

blocks severely impacts the readability of source code because it makes it too difficult to understand
which block will catch which exception.

InterruptedExceptions
should never be ignored in the code, and simply logging the exception counts in this case as "ignoring". The
throwing of the InterruptedException
clears the interrupted state of the Thread, so if the exception is not handled properly the fact
that the thread was interrupted will be lost. Instead, InterruptedExceptions
should either be rethrown - immediately or after cleaning up
the method's state - or the thread should be re-interrupted by calling Thread.interrupt()
even if this is supposed to be a
single-threaded application. Any other course of action risks delaying thread shutdown and loses the information that the thread was interrupted -
probably without finishing its task.
Similarly, the ThreadDeath
exception should also be propagated. According to its JavaDoc:
If
ThreadDeath
is caught by a method, it is important that it be rethrown so that the thread actually dies.
Noncompliant Code Example
public void run () { try { while (true) { // do stuff } }catch (InterruptedException e) { // Noncompliant; logging is not enough LOGGER.log(Level.WARN, "Interrupted!", e); } }
Compliant Solution
public void run () { try { while (true) { // do stuff } }catch (InterruptedException e) { LOGGER.log(Level.WARN, "Interrupted!", e); // Restore interrupted state... Thread.currentThread().interrupt(); } }

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 44.
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.
See codeclimate-duplication
's documentation for more information about tuning the mass threshold in your .codeclimate.yml
