Affects PMD Version: 6.9.0-SNAPSHOT
Rule: UnusedImports
Description: PMD flags the static import as unused, when it isn't.
This seems to be something different than #1209 . We obviously don't see, that the constant is used in a method call.
Code Sample demonstrating the issue:
package net.sourceforge.pmd.lang.java.rule.bestpractices.unusedimports;
import static net.sourceforge.pmd.lang.java.rule.bestpractices.unusedimports.ClassWithStringConstants.*;
public class ClassWithImport {
public static void main(String[] args) {
if (CONST1.equals("a")) {
System.out.println("CONST1 is a");
}
// using this works fine:
// System.out.println("CONST1 is " + CONST1);
// also this works:
// if ("a".equals(CONST1)) { ... }
}
}
With ClassWithStringConstants being:
package net.sourceforge.pmd.lang.java.rule.bestpractices.unusedimports;
public class ClassWithStringConstants {
private ClassWithStringConstants() {
// Utility class
}
public static final String CONST1 = "a";
public static final String CONST2 = "b";
}
