Sanity4J was created to simplify running multiple static code
analysis tools on the Java projects. It provides a single entry
point to run all the selected tools and produce a consolidated
report, which presents all findings in an easily accessible
manner.
UseNotifyAllInsteadOfNotify
UseNotifyAllInsteadOfNotify
Thread.notify() awakens a thread monitoring the object. If more than one thread is monitoring, then only
one is chosen. The thread chosen is arbitrary; thus it's usually safer to call notifyAll() instead.
This rule is defined by the following XPath expression:
//StatementExpression/PrimaryExpression
[count(PrimarySuffix/Arguments/ArgumentList) = 0]
[
PrimaryPrefix[./Name[@Image='notify' or ends-with(@Image,'.notify')]
or @Image='notify'
or (./AllocationExpression and ../PrimarySuffix[@Image='notify'])
]
]
Example:
public class Foo {
void bar() {
x.notify();
// If many threads are monitoring x, only one (and you won't know which) will be notified.
// use instead:
x.notifyAll();
}
}
