> In the context of FINERACT-828, I just noticed that org.apache.fineract.notification.domain.Notification.setActor(Long) has an obvious bug (which I'm fixing in a PR related to FINERACT-828).
> Eclipse pointed out that particular problem - as 1 out of 888 Warnings! :P
> One thing that IMHO would be interesting and valuable in overall context of our ongoing code quality efforts under the umbrella of FINERACT-712 would be to not only (also!) increasingly engage 3rd-party Java code quality tools (as we already are, very much ongoing... [~Manthan] GSOC), but also leverage what javac can do for us!
> Something neat [~ptuomola] did in FINERACT-846 as part of our switch to Java 11 was to enable {{'-Xlint:unchecked'}} and {{deprecation}} warnings (search for this in our {{build.gradle}}). Can we turn more javac warnings into errors - and fix respective problems?
> [~natashan] (Outreachy, like GSOC) perhaps this is something you'd like to dig into?
> PS: There is also the theoretical possibility to run Eclipse's Java Compiler (JDT) headlessly on the build - JUST because it sometimes has more feedback about code than javac. http://www.lastnpe.org does this for null analysis. (This is much more involved than just standard {{javac}}, so we should start there.)
