checkstyle classpath issue

[Dominik Dahlem <Do...@cs.tcd.ie>]

Hi all,

I thought to share a solution to a minor problem I had with the
checkstyle
report: I'm using the checkstyle plugin 2.0 and the report being
generated
pointed to many "Unable to get class information" errors.
I figured out that the checkstyle task supports classpaths and added the
dependency classpath of the project and the maven.build.dest property to
it.
As a result, the class information can be resolved and the report is not
overloaded with these error messages.


<ant:checkstyle
  config="${checkstyleProperties}"
  failOnViolation="${maven.checkstyle.fail.on.violation}">

  <classpath>
    <pathelement location="${maven.build.dest}" />
    <path refid="maven.dependency.classpath" />
  </classpath>

...
</ant:checkstyle>

Dominik
