Class DiamondOperatorForVariableDefinitionCheck

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.api.Configurable, com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.api.Contextualizable
    public class DiamondOperatorForVariableDefinitionCheck
extends com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.api.AbstractCheck
    This Check highlights variable definition statements where diamond operator could be used.
    Rationale: using diamond operator (introduced in Java 1.7) leads to shorter code
    and better code readability. It is suggested by Oracle that the diamond primarily using
    for variable declarations.

    E.g. of statements:

    Without diamond operator:
    Map<String, Map<String, Integer>> someMap = new HashMap<String, Map<String, Integer>>();
    With diamond operator:
    Map<String, Map<String, Integer>> someMap = new HashMap<>();
