/**
 * 
 * Detects double brace initialization.
 * 
 *
 * 
 * Rationale: Double brace initialization (set of
 * 
 * Instance Initializers in class body) may look cool, but it is considered as anti-pattern
 * and should be avoided.
 * This is also can lead to a hard-to-detect memory leak, if the anonymous class instance is
 * returned outside and other object(s) hold reference to it.
 * Created anonymous class is not static, it holds an implicit reference to the outer class
 * instance.
 * See this
 * 
 * blog post and
 * 
 * article for more details.
 * Check ignores any comments and semicolons in class body.
 * 
 *
 * 
 * Parent is {@code com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.TreeWalker}
 * 
 *
 * 
 * Violation Message Keys:
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * {@code avoid.double.brace.init}
