Summary: Enforce space before left curly brace Key: FLINK-11694 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-11694 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Components: Checkstyle Reporter: Chesnay Schepler Assignee: Chesnay Schepler Fix For: 1.8.0 We currently don't enforce spaces before left curly brace (\{), as a result of which the following code block would not raise any error: {code} void someMethod(){ if (someCondition){ try { ... } catch (Exception e){ ... } } } {code} It is not the aim of this JIRA to forbid {} as a shorthand for empty bodies, such as: {code} new TypeHint<Tuple2<String, Integer>>(){} {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
