com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.checks.coding.ParameterAssignmentCheck

All Implemented Interfaces:

Configurable, Contextualizable

public final class ParameterAssignmentCheck
extends AbstractCheck

Disallows assignment of parameters.

Rationale: Parameter assignment is often considered poor programming practice. Forcing developers to declare parameters as final is often onerous. Having a check ensure that parameters are never assigned would give the best of both worlds.

Method Details

getDefaultTokens

public int[] getDefaultTokens()

Description copied from class: AbstractCheck

Returns the default token a check is interested in. Only used if the configuration for a check does not define the tokens.

Specified by:

getDefaultTokens in class AbstractCheck

Returns:

the default tokens

See Also:

• TokenTypes

getRequiredTokens

public int[] getRequiredTokens()

Description copied from class: AbstractCheck

The tokens that this check must be registered for.

Specified by:

getRequiredTokens in class AbstractCheck

Returns:

the token set this must be registered for.

See Also:

• TokenTypes

getAcceptableTokens

public int[] getAcceptableTokens()

Description copied from class: AbstractCheck

The configurable token set. Used to protect Checks against malicious users who specify an unacceptable token set in the configuration file. The default implementation returns the check's default tokens.

Specified by:

getAcceptableTokens in class AbstractCheck

Returns:

the token set this check is designed for.

Overrides:

beginTree in class AbstractCheck

Parameters:

rootAST - the root of the tree

visitToken

public void visitToken(DetailAST ast)

Description copied from class: AbstractCheck

Called to process a token.

Overrides:

visitToken in class AbstractCheck

Parameters:

ast - the token to process

leaveToken

public void leaveToken(DetailAST ast)

Description copied from class: AbstractCheck

Called after all the child nodes have been process.

Overrides:

leaveToken in class AbstractCheck

Parameters:

ast - the token leaving

checkNestedIdent

private void checkNestedIdent(DetailAST ast)

Check if nested ident is parameter.

Parameters:
