public class FinalLocalVariableCheck extends AbstractCheck
Checks that local variables that never have their values changed are declared final. The check can be configured to also check that unchanged parameters are declared final.

Notes: When configured to check parameters, the check ignores parameters of interface methods and abstract methods.
