Jacek Lewandowski commented on CASSANDRA-18239:
-----------------------------------------------
My bad, I should say it explicitly that I mean replacing instead of just
removing.
[~brandon.williams] - that would work, though I was thinking about Sonar,
because: it is integrated with IDEs which makes it easier to actually write the
proper code, and because SonarCloud is free for open source projects so could
be integrated with pull requests and CI in the future - we have such
integration in DataStax for our fork and it works pretty well.

> Eclipse warnings is used for static code analysis. However, it does not fit
> well into Cassandra code and practically we end up explicitly adding
> suppressions in many places just to satisfy that tool rather than fix the
> real issues.
> This is an incomplete list of reasons to remove it:
> - not closed resources are detected incorrectly
> - does not recognize custom utility methods used to close the resources,
> which use use heavily in the code, like {{Throwables.close}},
> {{FileUtils.close}}, {{closeQuietly}}...
> - because of the above, we cannot make important things like {{Ref}} to
> implement {{Closeable}} as it would make the tool to explode with tons of
> warnings
> - it complains about correct generics - something like "method X is not
> applicable for ..." when the code compiles successfully is not acceptable
> - it is old and not maintained
> There are better tools like IntelliJ inspections for example, which can also
> be run in headless mode
