             Summary: Apply static analysis fixes, improvements
                 Key: CRUNCH-276
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CRUNCH-276
             Project: Crunch
          Issue Type: Task
    Affects Versions: 0.7.0
            Reporter: Sean Owen
            Priority: Minor


Browsing through the Crunch code with a static analyzer, I see a number of 
minor issues that can be cleaned up, even automatically, by the same tools. 

Most are likely completely non-controversial since they do not affect the 
functionality of the code:

- Remove unused imports
- Fix bad javadoc
- Typos
- Unnecessary casts
- Redundant modifiers on interface methods
- Access modifiers that have no effect (public constructor in private class)
- Missing @Override, @ Deprecated
- Bad literals like 0d

Others are also likely uncontroversial although might be termed a matter of 
style, although the changes would be towards standard Sun style; for example:

- Braces around all blocks
- No unnecessarily final on locals
- Unnecessarily inverted conditions

Some are signature changes, although only for entirely private elements:

- Making methods static
- Type weakening
- Remove use of old classes like Hashtable
- Declare collections by interface
- Raw use of generic types

And finally, there are a few which could conceivably break a caller, but only 
if doing something unintended. I want to avoid these unless the likelihood of 
an issue is very remote:

- Making utility classes final and non-instantiable -- should not be subclassed 
or instantiated

Before I get way into this -- it will likely touch 200+ files -- thoughts? I 
believe Josh was broadly supportive but here are the specifics.
