Utility class with 'public' constructor
Reports utility classes with public constructors.
Utility classes have all fields and methods declared as static. Creating a public constructor in such classes is confusing and may cause accidental class instantiation.
Example:
public final class UtilityClass {
public UtilityClass(){
}
public static void foo() {}
}After the quick-fix is applied:
public final class UtilityClass {
private UtilityClass(){
}
public static void foo() {}
