Hi,
I'd like to release version 2.4.0 of the Maven FindBugs Plugin
FindBugs looks for bugs in Java programs. It is based on the concept of bug
patterns. A bug pattern is a code idiom that is often an error. Bug patterns
arise for a variety of reasons:
• Difficult language features
• Misunderstood API methods
• Misunderstood invariants when code is modified during maintenance
• Garden variety mistakes: typos, use of the wrong boolean operator
FindBugs uses static analysis to inspect Java bytecode for occurrences of bug
patterns. We have found that FindBugs finds real errors in most Java software.
Because its analysis is sometimes imprecise, FindBugs can report false
warnings, which are warnings that do not indicate real errors. In practice, the
rate of false warnings reported by FindBugs is generally less than 50%.
