Duplicate code is one of the most pungent code smells. A rule that is often used is to re-structure code once it is duplicated in three or more places.
Common duplication problems, and corresponding solutions are:
1 | <?php |

17 | View Code Duplication | final class EchoAction extends AbstractAction |
|
18 | { |
||
19 | /** The constant that defines the output socket. */ |
||
20 | const SOCKET_OUTPUT = 'out'; |
||
21 | |||
22 | /** The socket that holds the data variable. */ |
||
23 | const SOCKET_DATA = 'data'; |
||
24 | |||
25 | /** |

||
28 | public function __construct() |
||

36 | /** |
