> Key: MPMD-173
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPMD-173
> Project: Maven PMD Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Zahi Karam
>
> In our code, in a same file, we use a builder as follows:
> {code:java}
> public final class Test {
> private Test() {}
> public static final class Builder {
> public Test build()
> { return new Test(); }
> }
> }
> Test test = new Test.Builder().build();
> {code}
> However, SonarQube raises the issue "Class cannot be instantiated and does
> not provide any static methods or fields" on such class.
> Could you please advise or fix the problem if it is a real issue?
> Thanks
