+1 on running it as `verify`, but we could also configure the Spotless Maven Plugin to solve two issues at once: - License headers as required by RAT, - Code formatting as checked by the CheckStyle Maven Plugin and individual preferences. I use Spotless in Log4j and it has eliminated all formatting-related code review comments. I am pretty much open to follow any style rules as long as I can apply fixes with: mvn spotless:apply Piotr --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
