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 |
||
| 29 | View Code Duplication | abstract class AbstractUserController extends AbstractController |
|
|
|
|||
| 30 | { |
||
| 31 | |||
| 32 | /** |
||
| 33 | * This is the default action handling the index area called without defining arguments. |
||
| 34 | * |
||
| 35 | * @param Request $request Current request instance |
||
| 36 | * |
||
| 37 | * @return mixed Output |
||
| 38 | * |
||
| 39 | * @throws AccessDeniedException Thrown if the user doesn't have required permissions |
||
| 40 | */ |
||
| 41 | public function indexAction(Request $request) |
||
| 56 | |||
| 57 | } |

Duplicated code is one of the most pungent code smells. If you need to duplicate the same code in three or more different places, we strongly encourage you to look into extracting the code into a single class or operation.
