RedundantModifierCompactSource
Since Checkstyle 14.4.0
Description
RedundantModifier.
The check reports public, protected, private, static, final, and strictfp on direct methods. It reports public, protected, private, and static on direct fields.
A final, static, or private modifier is retained when removing it would make a variable-arity method annotated with @SafeVarargs invalid. An invalid fixed-arity use of @SafeVarargs does not prevent final from being reported.
Only fields and methods whose immediate parent is a compact compilation unit are checked. Use RedundantModifier for declarations in ordinary and nested types.
Examples
To configure the check:
<module name="Checker">
