Class may extend a commonly used base class
Reports classes or interfaces that can be replaced with an implementation or extension of a more specific commonly used class or interface.
For this inspection to work, a superclass needs to be in project source files and the project needs to use the IntelliJ IDEA build system.
Example:
class MyInheritor implements A {} // B suggested on the A reference
interface A {}
abstract class B implements A {}
abstract class C1 extends B {}
abstract class C2 extends B {}
abstract class C3 extends B {}
abstract class C4 extends B {}
abstract class C5 extends B {}- 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.
