Write-only object

Reports objects that are modified but never queried.

The inspection relies on the method mutation contract, which could be inferred or pre-annotated for some library methods. This inspection does not report collections, maps, and string builders, as these types are reported by other more precise inspections.

Example:

Use the Ignore impure constructors option to control whether to process objects created by constructor or method whose purity is not known. Unchecking the option may introduce some false-positives if the object reference is intentionally leaked during the construction.
