Code Inspection: Redundant 'if' statement

Reports if statements which can be simplified to single assignment or return statements. For example:

if (foo()) { return true; } else { return false; } (foo()) { if (foo()) { return true; } else { return false; } true; } if (foo()) { return true; } else { return false; } { if (foo()) { return true; } else { return false; } false; }
can be simplified to
return foo(); foo();

Suppress an inspection in the editor

  1. Position the caret at the highlighted line and press Alt+Enter or click the Intention action icon.

  2. Click the arrow next to the inspection you want to suppress and select the necessary suppress action.
