'equals()' called on enum value
Reports equals()
calls on enum constants.
Such calls can be replaced by an identity comparison (==
) because two enum constants are equal only when they have the same identity.
A quick-fix is available to change the call to a comparison.
Example:
boolean foo(MyEnum value) {
return value.equals(MyEnum.FOO);
}
After the quick-fix is applied:
boolean foo(MyEnum value) {
return value == MyEnum.FOO;
}
