How to find unused Java classes and JSP files from a project

Question

How do I find unused Java classes and JSP files from a project?

I am using Eclipse and Mercurial as the source control system.

Answer 1

It could be approached for an unused class in projects. See how Eclipse marks the Eclipse unused classes as yellow. As it is open source, it is easily available.

Answer 2

I believe CodePro will do what you want.

Also a quick way of identifying this if only on a few files is right click the file and select 'References' then workspace or project.

Answer 3

ProGuard will do this as part of its "listing dead code" feature. The examples page shows you exactly how to do it.
