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
public class MyClass { private int foo = 42; public int compute(int a) { return a * 42; } }
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.

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 43.
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
