ABSTRACT

This looks like an effort to override a common Java method, but it probably does not have the intended effect.

EXPLANATION

This method's name is similar to a common Java method name, but it is either spelled incorrectly or the argument list causes it to not override the intended method.

Example 1: The following method is meant to override Object.equals():


public boolean equals(Object obj1, Object obj2) {
...
}


But since Object.equals() only takes a single argument, the method above is never called.
