Example 1:
int x = 0;
int y = x; // x is used as a y-coordinate
Example 2:
int x = 0, y = 0;
// x is used as a y-coordinate and y as an x-coordinate
Rectangle rc = new Rectangle(y, x, 20, 20);
Configure the inspection:
Use the Group of names area to specify the names which should not be used together: an error is reported if the parameter name or assignment target name contains words from one group and the name of the assigned or passed variable contains words from a different group.
Use the Ignore methods area to specify the methods that should not be checked but have a potentially suspicious name.
For example, the Integer.compare()
parameters are named x
and y
but are unrelated to coordinates.
