Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-11912: ---------------------------------------- Ok, let me commit this. We can fix the new warnings in new issues. > Catch some bad practices at compile time with error-prone > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-11912 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-11912 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Andrew Purtell > Assignee: Andrew Purtell > Attachments: HBASE-11912.patch, HBASE-11912.patch, HBASE-11912.patch, > HBASE-11912.patch > > > Google's error-prone (https://code.google.com/p/error-prone/) wraps javac > with some additional static analysis that will generate additional warnings > or errors at compile time if certain bug patterns > (https://code.google.com/p/error-prone/wiki/BugPatterns) are detected. What's > nice about this approach, as opposed to findbugs, is the compile time > detection and erroring out prevent the detected problems from getting into > the codebase up front. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
