Can findbugs detect unused public methods

Question

Is it possible to detect unused methods in a source tree using FindBugs? I see some posts on SO where users are claiming to do that, some others asking how to do this in FB

Answer 1

I have a project i'm currently working on that does just this.... It's very early on tho, so probably a bunch of bugs left:
