There are several PRs done for this and there are more to come. This is a quite huge task. I think we would be down to 400 spotbugs issues if all PRs would be merged. So I guess this will be in progress for a longer while
Currently FindBugs settings ignore all medium-priority issues. It's bad, because this level contains NPE checks and other serious issues.
TODOs:
- Remove filtering of medium-priority issues - Investigate error codes, add low-important once to the ignore list - Fix important issues in small pull requests
This task can be handled by multiple contributors!
Oleg Nenashev: Yes. That is a good idea. We have a lot issues still to solve. Maybe you should mention then that changing in the main pom the line 109 with this : <findbugs.threshold>Medium</findbugs.threshold> is enough to get all spotbugs issues.
