Why do I get "Override the "equals" in an abstract class?

We have an object hierarchy where an extended class is an abstract class. Surely the check for "Override the “equals” should not happen in an abstract class?

Hey there.

Describing code is rarely as useful as providing a code sample!

And, what version of SonarQube as using?
