I'm getting a message when I compile my code:
Note: H:\Project2\MyGui2.java uses unchecked or unsafe operations.
Note: Recompile with -Xlint:unchecked for details.
How do I recompile with -Xlint:unchecked
?

Specify it on the command line for javac:
javac -Xlint:unchecked
Or if you are using Ant modify your javac target
<javac ...>
<compilerarg value="-Xlint"/>
</javac>
If you are using Maven, configure this in the maven-compiler-plugin
<compilerArgument>-Xlint:unchecked</compilerArgument>
For IntelliJ 13.1, go to File -> Settings -> Project Settings -> Compiler -> Java Compiler, and on the right-hand side, for Additional command line parameters
enter "-Xlint:unchecked"
.
I know it sounds weird, but I'm pretty sure this is your problem:
Somewhere in MyGui.java you're using a generic collection without specifying the type. For example if you're using an ArrayList somewhere, you are doing this:
List list = new ArrayList();
When you should be doing this:
List<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();
In gradle project, You can added this compile parameter in the following way:
gradle.projectsEvaluated {
tasks.withType(JavaCompile) {
options.compilerArgs << "-Xlint:unchecked"
}
}
There is another way for gradle:
compileJava {
options.compilerArgs << "-Xlint:unchecked" << "-Xlint:deprecation"
}
In CMD, write:
javac -Xlint:unchecked MyGui2.java
it will display the list of unchecked or unsafe operations.
If you work with an IDE like NetBeans, you can specify the Xlint:unchecked
compiler option in the propertys of your project.
Just go to projects window, right click in the project and then click in Properties
.
In the window that appears search the Compiling
category, and in the textbox labeled Additional Compiler Options
set the Xlint:unchecked
option.
Thus, the setting will remain set for every time you compile the project.
A cleaner way to specify the Gradle compiler arguments follow:
compileJava.options.compilerArgs = ['-Xlint:unchecked','-Xlint:deprecation']
other way to compile using -Xlint:unchecked through command line
javac abc.java -Xlint:unchecked
it will show the unchecked and unsafe warnings.
FYI getting to these settings has changed for IntelliJ 15, new and improved for even deeper burial!
Now it's: File > Other Settings > Default Settings > 'Build, Execution, Deployment' > Compiler > Java Compiler
And in Additional command line parameters, same as before, write "-Xlint:unchecked".
