Inspectopedia 2026.1 Help

Result of object allocation ignored

Reports object instantiations where the allocated object is ignored and neither assigned to a variable nor used in another way.

Such expressions are legal in Java, but are often either unintended, or evidence of a very odd object initialization strategy.
