I am new ( and only person ) on old Java project. Couple guys have developed this before me. Is there any tool ( plugin for Eclipse would be nice ) which can find in project dead classes ( classes that are declared but they don’t use anymore anywhere ?
IntelliJ has a “Find Usages” that you can apply to classes, methods, strings – anything. Perhaps the Eclipse help can turn up such a thing.
Or maybe you should switch to IntelliJ.
IntelliJ can also generate UML that includes dependencies. Any class or package without a dependency would be a good candidate for removal. You’d get a quick visual that way.
