Just out of curiosity, I ran Findbugs 1.3.5 on Tomcat 6.0.18. The default settings generated some 1400 warnings about possible bugs.
Quite a few of them look serious - assuming that the code which contains them is being used. For example, there are quite a few public static fields which are not final. There are several instances of problems with String handling, e.g. using == to compare Strings or using String.replace() without assigning the result. And there are a few instances of methods which synchronize on a field in what appears to be an attempt to guard against simultaneous updates to that field. But guarding a field gets a lock on the referenced object, not on the field. This is probably not what was intended. I can provide a listing of the analyis if required, but it might be easier to use a FindBugs IDE plugin. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
