Warning
New
Last modified: 03 December 2024 Reports equals()
methods that do not check the type of their parameter.
Failure to check the type of the parameter in the equals()
method may result in latent errors if the object is used in an untyped collection.
Example:
class MyClass {
int x;
@Override
public boolean equals(Object obj) {
// equals method should return false if obj is not MyClass
return ((MyClass)obj).x == x;
}
}
- By ID
Can be used to locate inspection in e.g. Qodana configuration files, where you can quickly enable or disable it, or adjust its settings.
