ifndef-SleePy edited a comment on issue #8870: [FLINK-12974][checkstyle] Bump checkstyle to 8.14 URL: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/8870#issuecomment-506306235 @hmcl You mean downgrade to an earlier version? I don't think it's a good choice to use an older version. Because I believe 8.12 was well tested for Flink project by @zentol . The earlier version might not cover the feature of 8.12. And the reason I propose to upgrade to 8.14 is that, the commit message of checkstyle plugin shows that there is no breaking change between 8.12 and 8.14. It mapped 8.11/8.12/8.13 to 8.14. Actually I think it's better to upgrade to the newest stable version. Of course it should be well tested for Flink project. I think we should separate this into two steps, a quick fixing to 8.14 with a quick testing, and a big upgrade with well testing. Because many people have read the guide "Adopting a Code Style and Quality Guide" written by Stephan, and some of them have taken a practice just like me. And they may be confused on the setting of checkstyle plugin. And the big upgrade is not emergency we can do it quite later.
