Hi, I too have worked with FindBugs and I think it's a good tool. May be it's a good idea to fix at least P1 bugs in core. Anyway, I personally don't like these tools (don't ask me why :P) - Asiri On Wed, Oct 1, 2008 at 6:17 PM, Jonas von Malottki <[email protected]> wrote:
Hello Xwiki-Devs,
for the fun of it I let FindBugs check the Xwiki Core code and it found a bunch of "Issues". Some of them are more severe than others.
Maybe it is interesting to check it out. In my own programs I found some really interesting errors/problems I was never aware of. (Including some thread safety related stuff)
The good thing with Findbugs is the extensive documentation, that gives you a very good explanation why the found issue is an issue. There are also some "false positives", also explained in the documentation.

Findbugs also has good Eclipse Integration and a Maven plugin. Definitely worth a try. A first peek is painlessly done via Java webstart.
It's just a pointer..
