Affects PMD Version: 6.46.0

Rule: ImmutableField

Description: Fields that are annotated using the javax.inject.Inject annotation should not be final. However, a violation suggesting as much is still triggered.

Code Sample demonstrating the issue:

public abstract class AbstractDapiProcess implements Process {
   @Inject private AuthenticationService authService;

Expected outcome: No violation

PMD reports a violation at line 2 but that's wrong. That's a false positive.
