Sonar violation on "disallowed assignment of parameters"

I have the following code and I got an sonar violation error: disallowed assignment of parameters What is the best way to fix this?

PhoonOne's user avatar

I suspect one of 2 things are happening here:

1 - There is a bug in the checkstyle plugin

2 - The code sonar analysed is not quite the code you posted here

I believe that violation should apply in the following case:

So when you are reassigning the method parameter it would be expected, but in your example you are not, you are assigning it to a class field so it should be ok.

Try changing the method parameter to final and see if you still see the violation.

Remove Assignments to Parameters

Some value is assigned to a parameter inside method’s body.

Use a local variable instead of a parameter.

Why Refactor

The reasons for this refactoring are the same as for Split Temporary Variable , but in this case we’re dealing with a parameter, not a local variable.

First, if a parameter is passed via reference, then after the parameter value is changed inside the method, this value is passed to the argument that requested calling this method. Very often, this occurs accidentally and leads to unfortunate effects. Even if parameters are usually passed by value (and not by reference) in your programming language, this coding quirk may alienate those who are unaccustomed to it.

Second, multiple assignments of different values to a single parameter make it difficult for you to know what data should be contained in the parameter at any particular point in time. The problem worsens if your parameter and its contents are documented but the actual value is capable of differing from what’s expected inside the method.

Each element of the program should be responsible for only one thing. This makes code maintenance much easier going forward, since you can safely replace code without any side effects.

This refactoring helps to extract repetitive code to separate methods .

How to Refactor

Create a local variable and assign the initial value of your parameter.

In all method code that follows this line, replace the parameter with your new local variable.

  1. How to remove 'Assignment of Parameter 'variable' is not allowed'

    In my Sonar I have an error that says: 'Assignment of Parameter 'variable' is not allowed. The line that it's on is: @RequestParam (value="variable", required=false) String variable. So I'm wondering how I could get that error off since I can't just create a setter when I'm using that annotation.

  3. ParameterAssignmentCheck (checkstyle 10.11.0 API)

    Disallows assignment of parameters. Rationale: Parameter assignment is often considered poor programming practice. Forcing developers to declare parameters as final is often onerous. Having a check ensure that parameters are never assigned would give the best of both worlds.

  4. Parameter assignment error

    hi, yes, this could be the problem. when the addresses of a F-IO is not used in the F-programm, the DB of the F-module is not loaded with HW-configuration and this can cause an error. Try to use one of the F- inputs/output in the F-programm, to verify if I am right.
