squid:MaximumInheritanceDepth to many parents counting wrong in SonarLint 2.6 for Eclipse

[Matthias Kolley]

I get the issue squid:MaximumInheritanceDepth for one of my classes.
SonarLint tells me This class has 6 parents which is greater than 5 authorized.
I looked through my class and only found 5 Parents.
So i wrote an example.

public TestClass{

public abstract class Parent1 {

        int value = 0;

        public int getValue() {
            return value;
        }
    }

    public abstract class Parent2 extends Parent1 {

    }

    public abstract class Parent3 extends Parent2 {

    }

    public abstract class Parent4 extends Parent3 {

    }

    public abstract class Parent5 extends Parent4 {

    }

    public class MyObject extends Parent5 {

    }
}

And as you will see: SonarLint complains about the class "MyObject" to have 6 parents which is greater than 5 authorized. But obviously MyObject only has 5 Parents.
Am I wrong? Or is this really counted the wrong way?

Hi Matthias, 

Don't forget that Parent1 extends Object. So this is where the 6th parent is counted.

Cheers,
