FinalizeShouldBeProtected


FinalizeShouldBeProtected
If you override finalize(), make it protected.  If you make
 it public, other classes may call it.
      
		
		
		    
    			This rule is defined by the following XPath expression:
    			
    			
                        
//MethodDeclaration[@Protected="false"]
  /MethodDeclarator[@Image="finalize"]
  [not(FormalParameters/*)]
                    
                
  
		    
		    
	    
	    
        
        
        Example:
            
                    
  
public class Foo {
 public void finalize() {
  // do something
 }
}
