== Why is this an issue?

A serialVersionUID field is required in a ``++Serializable++`` class. In a non-``++Serializable++``, it's just confusing.


=== Noncompliant code example

[source,java]
----
public class MyClass {
  private static final long serialVersionUID = -1L;  // Noncompliant
}
----


ifdef::env-github,rspecator-view[]
