Inspectopedia 2024.3 Help

Instantiating object to get 'Class' object

Reports code that instantiates a class to get its class object.

It is more performant to access the class object directly by name.

Example:

Class<?> c = new Sample().getClass();

After the quick-fix is applied:

Class<?> c = Sample.class;
