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.
Note that this rule does not take reflection into account, which means that issues will be raised on private
fields that are only
accessed using the reflection API.
Noncompliant Code Example

Compliant Solution
public class MyClass { public int compute(int a) { return a * 42; } }
Exceptions
The Java serialization runtime associates with each serializable class a version number, called serialVersionUID
, which is used during
deserialization to verify that the sender and receiver of a serialized object have loaded classes for that object that are compatible with respect to
serialization.
A serializable class can declare its own serialVersionUID
explicitly by declaring a field named serialVersionUID
that
must be static, final, and of type long. By definition those serialVersionUID
fields should not be reported by this rule:
public class MyClass implements java.io.Serializable { private static final long serialVersionUID = 42L; }
Moreover, this rule doesn't raise any issue on annotated fields.

Correctly updating a static
field from a non-static method is tricky to get right and could easily lead to bugs if there are multiple
class instances and/or multiple threads in play. Ideally, static
fields are only updated from synchronized static
methods.
This rule raises an issue each time a static
field is updated from a non-static method.

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; } }

When class contains public static void main(String[] args)
method it is not considered as utility class and will be ignored by this
