Without giving too much away, I'm making an object which has 9 attributes. Let's use an RPG for example.
float strength, constitution, fortitude, dexterity, intelligence, charisma, wisdom, willpower, perception;
Given that the object is called player, the constructor of
public Player(float strength, float constitution, float fortitude, float dexterity,
float intelligence, float charisma, float wisdom, float willpower, float perception){}
According to SonarLint: "Constructor has 9 parameters, which is greater than 7 authorized."
While I know that SonarLint saying that won't stop the code actually functioning, if there is a "proper" way of dealing with these situations, I'd love to know!
Thanks
P.s, if this is the wrong forum for such a question, please point me towards the right one!
Ideally you would split the class into smaller units and compose.
In this case, as they seem to be all of the same kind of thing, a Map (specifically EnumMap) would appear to be appropriate.
As a last resort, there is the Builder Pattern.
Player player = Player.builder()
.strength( )
.constitution( )
// ...
.perception( );
