Eliminate eclipse code warnings to improve quality #303

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Hi, I integrated ESAPI into a large legacy application last year and am very 
happy with it!

However we use eclipse and set all eclipse compiler preferences to Error 
(instead of Warning or Ignore) for the categories "Potential programming 
problems" and "Unnecessary code" (except 'value of parameter is not used'). 
Additionally for JavaDoc 'Malformed Javadoc comments' is also an error.  
Altogether this shows 339 "errors" in ESAPI, which include what could be 
considered bugs (eg potential null pointer access),  efficiency issues (eg 
boxing and unboxing) and nice-to-haves.

I say all this because it would be nice to see these 'errors' disappear from 
our eclipse baseline, but it would also improve the quality of the ESAPI 
deliverable.  If you do not use eclipse I could upload a list of the 339 issues.

Thanks
Eamonn
