final keyword

written by juan on October 4th, 2005 @ 12:00 AM

It has been a while time since i adopted the checkstyle rule that enforce the use of the final keyword to the method's parameter variables (and i also extended the use to almost all the instance / local variables that are inmutables). Todays java.net/today page talks about this in a forum message: http://forums.java.net/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=26147&tstart=0#26147 Do you use it? Do you found any flaw in the use of the final keyword?
