Return of boolean literal statements wrapped into ``++if-then-else++`` ones should be simplified. Similarly, method invocations wrapped into ``++if-then-else++`` differing only from boolean literals should be simplified into a single invocation. == Noncompliant Code Example ---- boolean foo(Object param) { if (expression) { // Noncompliant bar(param, true, "qix"); } else { bar(param, false, "qix"); } if (expression) { // Noncompliant return true; } else { return false; } } ---- == Compliant Solution ---- boolean foo(Object param) { bar(param, expression, "qix"); return expression; } ----
