Detection of "commented out" code

[Nobody/Anonymous]

It is hard to determine when it is uncommented code or a comment

public boolean equals(Object o)

{

if (this == o)

{

return true;

}

/*

if (o == null)

{

return false;

}

*/
if (o.getClass() != getClass())

{

return false;

}

return (m_key.equals(((KeyValueContainer)o).m_key));

}

or

public boolean equals(Object o)

{

if (this == o)

{

return true;

}

// if (o == null)

// {

// return false;

// }

if (o.getClass() != getClass())

{

return false;

}

return (m_key.equals(((KeyValueContainer)o).m_key));

}

Hi,

in my opinion it is not so usefull or important to find "commented
out"

code.

It also does not fit with the target of UCDetector to find "unnecessary

code".

Anywhere, if you are interested, write you own detection. A starting

point would be here:
