The contract of the ``++Object.finalize()++`` method is clear: only the Garbage Collector is supposed to call this method.
Making this method public is misleading, because it implies that any caller can use it.
== Noncompliant Code Example
[source,java]
----
public class MyClass {
@Override
public void finalize() { // Noncompliant
/* ... */
}
}
----
== See
* https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/583[MITRE, CWE-583] - finalize() Method Declared Public
* https://wiki.sei.cmu.edu/confluence/x/4jZGBQ[CERT, MET12-J.] - Do not use finalizers
