Herve Boutemy updated MCHECKSTYLE-252: -------------------------------------- Description: Updating maven-checkstyle-plugin to version 2.13 and running {noformat}$ mvn site{noformat} now includes non-source files in its checks, e.g. {noformat}COPYING COPYING.LESSER target/generated-classes/cobertura/cobertura.properties{noformat} While it is rather amusing to have checkstyle complain that COPYING (the text of the GNU General Public License) doesn't include a license header, it seems that the default source root or one of the other properties new to version 2.13 does not have an appropriate default value. The target directory should also be excluded by default. was: Updating maven-checkstyle-plugin to version 2.13 and running $ mvn site now includes non-source files in its checks, e.g. COPYING COPYING.LESSER target/generated-classes/cobertura/cobertura.properties While it is rather amusing to have checkstyle complain that COPYING (the text of the GNU General Public License) doesn't include a license header, it seems that the default source root or one of the other properties new to version 2.13 does not have an appropriate default value.
