Re: [Codenarc-user] Question about Using New Size Features

[Corum, M. <mc...@rg...>]

Please ignore this question.  It was a GString rather than a java
string.  Once I put that in, this one worked.

 

I'm still interested in the question of how to get the new features that
were added in 0.11 to work properly.  For instance, I put
MethodSize.maxLines=8 in my codenarc.properties file and it isn't
catching any long methods.

 

Thanks,

Since upgrading from 0.6.1 to 0.11, I'm seeing lots of new violations.
Many of them don't really make sense.  One example is the use of the
"multiply" method on a string.  The idea that this is a violation makes
no sense.  Here is some example code from a test where I was testing a
long string:

 

def longString = "Long String!".multiply(201)

 

CodeNarc flags this with ExplicitCallToMultiplyMethod.  Since using
multiply is correct in this case (in fact, the recommended Groovy way of
doing it), I wanted to turn this one off.  So, I added the following
line to codenarc.properties:

 

ExplicitCallToMultiplyMethod.doNotApplyToClassNames=java.lang.String

 

However, after running codenarc again, it still flags that line of code
with ExplicitCallToMultiplyMethod.  What can I do to make this work
correctly?
