Java code verifier.
Jlint will check your Java code and find bugs, inconsistencies and synchronization problems by doing data flow analysis and building Lock graph.
Jlint consists of two separate programs performing syntax and semantic verification. As far as Java mostly inherits C/C++ syntax and so inherits most of the problems caused by C syntax, the idea was to Create common syntax verifier for all C-family languages: C, C++, Objective C and Java. This program was named AntiC, because it fixes problems with C grammar, which can cause dangerous programmers bugs, undetected by compiler. By using hand-written scanner and simple top-down parser, AntiC is able to Detect such bugs as suspicious use of operators priorities, absence of break in switch code, wrong assumption about constructions bodies...

Semantic verifier Jlint extracts information from Java class files. As far as Java class file has very well specified and simple format, it greatly simplifies Jlint in comparison with source level verifiers, because development of Java grammar parser is not a simple task (even through Java grammar is simpler and less ambiguous than C++ grammar). Also dealing only with class files, protect Jlint from further Java extensions (format of virtual byte instructions is more conservative). By using debugging information Jlint can associate reported messages with Java sources. you can free download Jlint 1.20 now.
