Dear All basically I like tools like FindBugs, but currently it is a pain. The Java 8 support seems to be buggy, which creates useless false positives. Switching rules out is also quite cumbersome, and in most cases the tool does not give me feedback, which I would not already have from outside my IDE. Checkstyle, compared to, is much more easy. So my question is: 1) Do we really need FindBugs support in our build switched on by default? 2) Do we need FindBugs at all? If the tool makes you a fool...
