[jira] Commented: (MPCHECKSTYLE-35) Add option to break report into multiple files for large results

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPCHECKSTYLE-35?page=comments#action_44262 ] 

Carlos Sanchez commented on MPCHECKSTYLE-35:
--------------------------------------------

If you have such a huge report you shouldn't be using checkstyle or you should start with a smaller set of rules

> For large projects, the load of the HTML report is unwieldy with the rule violations.  This particularly occurs when setting up on existing codebases  many rule violations.  Not only does it take a long time to load, it is overwhelming for team members to wade through this large page.  This does not help the effort of adoption.
> Also, the current "workaround" is to greatly reduce the rule set to make smaller results.  But that is not optimal and prolongs the problem.  Even with a reduced ruleset, our checkstyle-report.html file is over 13M.
> Suggested organization:
> - The main page has the current Summary and Files sections.  Each file link loads a separate page, vs linking to a ref on the same page.
> - Have an All on one page link that provides as is today (handy for printing smaller lists if needed, and also for audits).
> - If needed, have a config property that states which way to generate the report  all on one page or separate pages - that defaults to all on one page so it maintains backwards compatibility.
