| <p>Reports a <b>null</b> check followed by an <b>instanceof</b> check. | |
| Since the <b>instanceof</b> operator always returns <b>false</b> for <b>null</b>, | |
| there is no need to have an additional <b>null</b> check. </p> | |
| <p>Here is an example of a violation: </p> | |
| <pre><code> if (x != null && x instanceof String) { ... }</code></pre> | |
| <p>The quickfix changes this code to:</p> | |
| <pre><code> if (x instanceof String) { ... }</code></pre> | |
