rspec/rules/S1710/java/rule.adoc

Before Java 8 if you needed to use multiple instances of the same annotation, they had to be wrapped in a container annotation. With Java 8, that's no longer necessary, allowing for cleaner, more readable code.


*Note* that this rule is automatically disabled when the project's ``++sonar.java.source++`` is lower than ``++8++``.


== Noncompliant Code Example

[source,java]
----
@SomeAnnotations({  // Noncompliant
  @SomeAnnotation(..a..),
  @SomeAnnotation(..b..),
  @SomeAnnotation(..c..),
})
public class SomeClass {
  ...
}
----


== Compliant Solution

[source,java]
----
@SomeAnnotation(..a..)
@SomeAnnotation(..b..)
@SomeAnnotation(..c..)
public class SomeClass {
  ...
}
