as a corrolary, unused exceptions are also flagged, which also seems wrong. Just wanted to report the same. So, I can confirm this. This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant. -- The automated Eclipse Genie. I can confirm, that the bug still persists in 2018-12. Either unused parameters in default methods should never be complained about or at least there should be an optional exception to this compiler error/warning setting like "Ignore in default implementing interface methods" and the setting should be checked by default. |
create an interface as public interface Foo { default void bar(Baz b) { } } class Baz { } Eclipse will complain that Baz b is unused, which is true, but it doesn't seem right that one would complain about a parameter in an interface, even if it were default.
