| The CodeNarc Team is proud to announce the release of version 1.2.</p> |
| <p> |
| <a href="http://codenarc.org/">CodeNarc</a> is a static analysis tool for Groovy source code. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Version 1.2 includes 5 new rules and several enhancements and bug fixes. See the full details in the <a href="https://github.com/CodeNarc/CodeNarc/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md">release notes</a>. |
| </p> |
| <h3>New Rules</h3> |
| <p><b></b></p> |
| <li><b>StaticFieldsBeforeInstanceFields</b> rule (convention) - Enforce that all static fields are above all instance fields within a class. |
| <li><b>StaticMethodsBeforeInstanceMethods</b> rule (convention) - Enforce that all static methods within each visibility level (public, protected, private) are above all instance methods within that same visibility level. |
| <li><b>PublicMethodsBeforeNonPublicMethods</b> rule (convention) - Enforce that all public methods are above protected and private methods. |
| <li><b>GrailsDomainStringPropertyMaxSize</b> rule (grails) - String properties in Grails domain classes have to define maximum size otherwise the property is mapped to VARCHAR(255) causing runtime exceptions to occur. |
| <li><b>NoJavaUtilDate</b> rule (convention) - Do not use java.util.Date. Prefer the classes in the java.time.* packages. Checks for construction of new java.util.Date objects.</p> |
