== Why is this an issue?

Non-abstract classes and enums with non-``++static++``, ``++private++`` members should explicitly initialize those members, either in a constructor or with a default value.

=== Noncompliant code example

[source,java]
----
class A { // Noncompliant
  private int field;
}
----

=== Compliant solution

[source,java]
----
class A {
  private int field;

  A(int field) {
    this.field = field;
  }
}
----

Feedback [~ann.campbell.2]:

* I would decrease the remediation cost to 5 minutes as we're just talking about creating a constructor to initialize the value
* If this might really lead a a reliability issue, I guess we should use the tag "bug"
