Trailing whitespaces are useless. Most of code-styles forbids them. Most of editors always trim them on save.
I propose to clean up project from trailing whitespaces in all java files at once.
Reports on declarations of Collection variables made by using the collection class as the type, rather than an appropriate interface.

Reports Collection.addAll() and Map.putAll() calls after instantiation of a collection using a constructor call without arguments. Such constructs can be replaced with a single call to a parametrized constructor which simplifies code. Also for some collections the replacement might be more performant.

There are two styles to convert a collection to an array: either using a pre-sized array (like c.toArray(new String[c.size()])) or using an empty array (like c.toArray(new String[0]).
In older Java versions using pre-sized array was recommended, as the reflection call which is necessary to create an array of proper size was quite slow. However since late updates of OpenJDK 6 this call was intrinsified, making the performance of the empty array version the same and sometimes even better, compared to the pre-sized version. Also passing pre-sized array is dangerous for a concurrent or synchronized collection as a data race is possible between the size and toArray call which may result in extra nulls at the end of the array, if the collection was concurrently shrunk during the operation.

Collections.sort() can be replaced with List.sort()
Reports calls to Collections.sort(list, comparator) which could be replaced with list.sort(comparator).

Reports "unboxing", e.g. explicit unwrapping of wrapped primitive values. Unboxing is unnecessary under Java 5 and newer, and can be safely removed.

Reports explicit boxing, i.e. wrapping of primitive values in objects. Explicit manual boxing is unnecessary under Java 5 and newer, and can be safely removed.

Reports while loops which iterate over collections, and can be replaced with an enhanced for loop (i.e. foreach iteration syntax).
