*DCL31-J:EX1*: According to the Java Language Specification \[[JLS 05|AA. Java References#JLS 05]\], section 9.3 "Field (Constant) Declarations": "Every field declaration in the body of an interface is implicitly {{public}}, {{static}}, and {{final}}. It is permitted to redundantly specify any or all of these modifiers for such fields." |
EX2: Constants declared using the enum type may violate this guideline.
Risk Assessment
Failing to declare mathematical constants static and final can lead to thread safety issues as well as inconsistent behavior.
