Hardcoded file separator
Reports the forward (/) or backward (\) slash in a string or character literal. These characters are commonly used as file separators, and portability may suffer if they are hardcoded.
The inspection will not report backward slashes inside escape sequences and forward slashes immediately following the '<' character or immediately preceding the '>' character, as those often indicate XML or HTML tags rather than file names. Strings representing a java.util.TimeZone ID, strings that are valid regular expressions, or strings that equal IANA-registered MIME media types will not be reported either.
Example:
Locating this inspection
- 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.
HardcodedFileSeparators- Via Settings dialog
Path to the inspection settings via IntelliJ Platform IDE Settings dialog, when you need to adjust inspection settings directly from your IDE.
Use the option to include example/* in the set of recognized media types. Normally, usage of the example/* MIME media type outside of an example (e.g. in a Content-Type header) is an error.
