AssignmentInOperand

Avoid assignments in operands; this can make code more complicated and harder to read.

This rule is defined by the following Java class: net.sourceforge.pmd.rules.AssignmentInOperand

Example:

                
  
public class Foo {
 public void bar() {
  int x = 2;
  if ((x = getX()) == 3) {
   System.out.println("3!");
  }
 }
 private int getX() {
  return 3;
 }
}
