Details

BC_VACUOUS_INSTANCEOF: instanceof will always return true

This instanceof test will always return true (unless the value being tested is null). Although this is safe, make sure it isn't an indication of some misunderstanding or some other logic error. If you really want to test the value for being null, perhaps it would be clearer to do better to do a null test rather than an instanceof test.

BC_UNCONFIRMED_CAST: Unchecked/unconfirmed cast

This cast is unchecked, and not all instances of the type casted from can be cast to the type it is being cast to. Check that your program logic ensures that this cast will not fail.

DB_DUPLICATE_BRANCHES: Method uses the same code for two branches

This method uses the same code to implement two branches of a conditional branch. Check to ensure that this isn't a coding mistake.

DLS_DEAD_LOCAL_STORE: Dead store to local variable

This instruction assigns a value to a local variable, but the value is not read or used in any subsequent instruction. Often, this indicates an error, because the value computed is never used.

Note that Sun's javac compiler often generates dead stores for final local variables. Because FindBugs is a bytecode-based tool, there is no easy way to eliminate these false positives.

MS_CANNOT_BE_FINAL: Field isn't final and can't be protected from malicious code

A mutable static field could be changed by malicious code or by accident from another package. Unfortunately, the way the field is used doesn't allow any easy fix to this problem.

NM_SAME_SIMPLE_NAME_AS_SUPERCLASS: Class names shouldn't shadow simple name of superclass

This class has a simple name that is identical to that of its superclass, except that its superclass is in a different package (e.g., alpha.Foo extends beta.Foo). This can be exceptionally confusing, create lots of situations in which you have to look at import statements to resolve references and creates many opportunities to accidentally define methods that do not override methods in their superclasses.

OS_OPEN_STREAM: Method may fail to close stream

The method creates an IO stream object, does not assign it to any fields, pass it to other methods that might close it, or return it, and does not appear to close the stream on all paths out of the method.  This may result in a file descriptor leak.  It is generally a good idea to use a finally block to ensure that streams are closed.

RV_NEGATING_RESULT_OF_COMPARETO: Negating the result of compareTo()/compare()

This code negatives the return value of a compareTo or compare method. This is a questionable or bad programming practice, since if the return value is Integer.MIN_VALUE, negating the return value won't negate the sign of the result. You can achieve the same intended result by reversing the order of the operands rather than by negating the results.

SA_LOCAL_SELF_COMPARISON: Self comparison of value with itself

This method compares a local variable with itself, and may indicate a typo or a logic error. Make sure that you are comparing the right things.

SF_SWITCH_FALLTHROUGH: Switch statement found where one case falls through to the next case

This method contains a switch statement where one case branch will fall through to the next case. Usually you need to end this case with a break or return.

SE_NO_SERIALVERSIONID: Class is Serializable, but doesn't define serialVersionUID

This class implements the Serializable interface, but does not define a serialVersionUID field.  A change as simple as adding a reference to a .class object will add synthetic fields to the class, which will unfortunately change the implicit serialVersionUID (e.g., adding a reference to String.class will generate a static field class$java$lang$String). Also, different source code to bytecode compilers may use different naming conventions for synthetic variables generated for references to class objects or inner classes. To ensure interoperability of Serializable across versions, consider adding an explicit serialVersionUID.

UC_USELESS_OBJECT: Useless object created

Our analysis shows that this object is useless. It's created and modified, but its value never go outside of the method or produce any side-effect. Either there is a mistake and object was intended to be used or it can be removed.

This analysis rarely produces false-positives. Common false-positive cases include:

- This object used to implicitly throw some obscure exception.

- This object used as a stub to generalize the code.

- This object used to hold strong references to weak/soft-referenced objects.
