Bug 130247

Comment 1 Philipe Mulet 2006-03-03 04:20:04 EST

Can you please provide a testcase ?

Comment 2 Philipe Mulet 2006-03-03 04:23:52 EST

Cannot reproduce. Following works fine:
public class X {
	private int value;
	void foo() {
		System.out.println(this.value);
		class L {
			int pos;
			void bar() {
				System.out.println(this.pos);
			}
		}
	}
}

Here you go...

public class ThisVariable {

    private boolean isDbUpdate;
   
    public void setIsDbUpdate(String isDbUpdate) {
        this.isDbUpdate = Boolean.valueOf(isDbUpdate).booleanValue();
    }
   
}

Thanks, reproduced.

Comment 5 Philipe Mulet 2006-03-03 15:18:13 EST

Actually, this is intended behavior. 

The warning tells you the variable is never *read* from.
It is assigned, but the value is never consumed anywhere. It tells you that it is likely a useless field at the moment.

Boolean.valueOf(isDbUpdate)   only from reads the constructor argument, not from the field.
