Clashing getters

Last modified: 03 December 2024

Reports boolean methods which can be accessed via the same property name.

The result of accessing such property might be unexpected.

Example:

class X {
    boolean isFoo() { true }
    boolean getFoo() { false }
}

// getFoo() will be called
new X().foo
