------------------------------------

             Summary: Allow checkstyleRules next to configLocation
                 Key: MCHECKSTYLE-355
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCHECKSTYLE-355
             Project: Maven Checkstyle Plugin
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: HerrDerb


*Summary*

Allow to define a {{configLocation}} and {{checkstyleRules}} resulting in inline checkstyle rules overriding {{configLocation}} checks. This would allow a dynamic checkstyle rule configuration.

 

*Current behaviour*
Currently when running the plugin with the following configuration
{code:java}
<configuration>
       <configLocation>google_checks.xml</configLocation>
       <checkstyleRules>
               <module name="LineLength">
                      <property name="max" value="120"/>
              </module>
       </checkstyleRules>
 </configuration>{code}
 it fails and returns
{code:java}
Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-checkstyle-plugin:3.0.0:check (default) on project comlab-pom: If you use inline configuration for rules, don't specify a configLocation{code}
*Desired behaviour*

The google check {{LineLenth}} is overriden by the inline check, defining a valid line length of 120 instead of 80.
