Reports record classes and suggests converting them to ordinary classes.

This inspection makes it possible to move a Java record to a codebase using an earlier Java version by applying the quick-fix to this record.

Note that the resulting class is not completely equivalent to the original record:

Example:


  record Point(int x, int y) {}

After the quick-fix is applied:


  final class Point {
    private final int x;
    private final int y;

    Point(int x, int y) {
      this.x = x;
      this.y = y;
    }

    public int x() { return x; }

    public int y() { return y; }

    @Override
    public boolean equals(Object obj) {
      if (obj == this) return true;
      if (obj == null || obj.getClass() != this.getClass()) return false;
      var that = (Point)obj;
      return this.x == that.x &&
             this.y == that.y;
    }

    @Override
    public int hashCode() {
      return Objects.hash(x, y);
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {
      return "Point[" +
             "x=" + x + ", " +
             "y=" + y + ']';
    }
  }

This inspection only reports if the language level of the project or module is 16 or higher.
