license headers

Hi all,

I updated the license headers in HttpCore, with the same exceptions
as before:
- .apt files have no license header, I don't know the format
- license.regexp is not updated

Could somebody tell me how to run the "checkstyle" utility?
Is it a Maven plugin? A standalone application which I need to
install? We do have checkstyle.xml files in the components, so
Jakarta requires us to run the tool and fix all problems for
releases. Once I know how to run it, I can update the
license.regexp files it uses.

cheers,
  Roland

No, if they're not distributed they don't need the license header
(I believe). I thought we'd be shipping the whole stuff to
generate the site, like we do in HttpClient 3. There's not much
point in it now, but later we'll have guides and tutorials
there. Still, there's plenty of time to add license headers
until then.

Then I'll have to dig into this one of these days. There may
have been something in the old Ant files. If we don't run
checkstyle, we've got to make sure that the checkstyle.xml
and license.regexp are not in our distributables.

cheers,

Many thanks for taking care of this.

Is this at all necessary? These files are not supposed to be
distributed.

I think Jeff "Jandalf" used to run some "checkstyle" utility manually
once in a while in the HttpClient 2.0 days. I am pretty certain we are
not using any Maven checkstyle plugin at the moment.
