Ingore Fields during inspection

You may add such field to entry points when unused code inspection is shown
up.

We put tags in our compiled byte code like

>

private static final mks_id = "$Id:";

Then our vcs (mks obviously) will usert version numbers when we check in.

This allows us to see what version a specific .class file is. This is a
pretty common practice, sometimes people put copyright notices ect into
their compiled code.

We obviously never actually reference this field, so is there a way for me

to tell idea to quick complaining about any variable named mks_id ???

Great. I didn't know you could manually add entry points this way.
(here is why : http://www.intellij.net/tracker/idea/viewSCR?publicId=14031)


Now, I wish I could also exclude some entry points the same way. That
would solve

, that I personnally find a real major pain in the b..t, that also hurts
my feelings.
Currently, the only way to go around this problem would be to implement
toString() with reflexion !! Ouch.


Alain

so if you have that same field in every class I would have to add an entry point for every single class?

Unfortunately yes. Seems like we need some pattern support for entry points.
