== Why is this an issue?
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
/* ... */
|
|
}
|
|
}
