Subject: [Eap-list] Constant Condition oversight
> The Inspection feature has highlighted a "constant condition" incorrectly.
> Here is a brief reconstruction of the scenario:
>
> class Test
> {
> void testMethod1() throws Exception {}
> void testMethod2() throws Exception {}
>
> public void main(String argv[])
> {
> boolean callingMethod1 = false;
> try
> {
> callingMethod1 = true;
> testMethod1();
> callingMethod1 = false;
> testMethod2();
> }
> catch (Exception e)
> {
> if (callingMethod1)
> System.err.println("Error while calling method 1");
> else
> System.err.println("Error while calling method 2");
> }
> }
> }
>
> Summary: I'm using a boolean to figure out whether an exception occurred
> during a call to a particular method.
> Problem: the if inside the catch block is highlighted as a constant, with
> the claim that the condition is always false.
> The obvious oversight is that control can switch to the catch block at a
> time when the value is true.
>
> I'm not asking for this to be fixed ASAP (it's a rather unusual scenario,
> anyway), just thought you should know about it. ; )
