Hello!
I&#39;m looking for a good Java linter.
I was surprised to find that the top Google hits are hosted on sourceforge, don&#39;t have very many inspections and (in some cases) haven&#39;t had any releases in 2+ years.
Is there any up-to-date popular solution?
(Specifically I&#39;m looking for a check that flags unhandled return values in some situations, but preferably as part of a mature package).
Many thanks!
Mark
EDIT: shortly after posting this, a colleague recommended <a target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href="https://www.sonarsource.com/products/codeanalyzers/sonarjava/rules.html#RSPEC-899">Sonar</a>, which seems to be the closest thing so far. Still open to suggestions.
