Nested method call

Reports method calls used as parameters to another method call.

The quick-fix introduces a variable to make the code simpler and easier to debug.

Example:

public int y() { return 1; }
public int f(int x) { return 2 * x; }

public void foo() {
    int x = f(y());
}

After the quick-fix is applied:

public int y() { return 1; }
public int f(int x) { return 2 * x; }

public void foo() {
    int y = y();
    int x = f(y);
}

Use the inspection options to toggle the reporting of:
