Hi All. I was trying to integrate a custom checkstyle configuration file with my project and am getting the following exception:
*[INFO] Error during page generation* *Embedded error: Error rendering Maven report: Failed during checkstyle configuration Unable to instantiate WriteTagCheck* The checkstyle file I am using works perfectly with eclipse when I try to do a checkstyle check from eclipse. But when I try to create a site using mvn site command I get the above exception. I have pasted the checkstyle file I am using below. Is there something wrong with the checkstyle file syntax? any pointers to possible solutions would be of great help to me. Many Thanks Shinjan my_checkstyle_config.xml ------------------------------------------ <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!-- This configuration file was written by the eclipse-cs plugin configuration editor --> <!DOCTYPE module PUBLIC "-//Puppy Crawl//DTD Check Configuration 1.2//EN" " http://www.puppycrawl.com/dtds/configuration_1_2.dtd"> <module name="Checker"> <property name="severity" value="warning"/> <module name="TreeWalker"> <property name="tabWidth" value="4"/> <module name="JavadocMethod"/> <module name="JavadocType"/> <module name="JavadocVariable"/> <module name="JavadocStyle"/> <module name="ConstantName"/> <module name="LocalFinalVariableName"/> <module name="LocalVariableName"/> <module name="MemberName"/> <module name="MethodName"/> <module name="PackageName"/> <module name="ParameterName"/> <module name="StaticVariableName"/> <module name="TypeName"/> <module name="AvoidStarImport"/> <module name="IllegalImport"/> <module name="RedundantImport"/> <module name="UnusedImports"/> <module name="FileLength"/> <module name="LineLength"> <property name="ignorePattern" value="^import"/> </module> <module name="MethodLength"/> <module name="ParameterNumber"/> <module name="EmptyForIteratorPad"/> <module name="MethodParamPad"/> <module name="NoWhitespaceAfter"> <property name="tokens" value="BNOT,DEC,DOT,INC,LNOT,UNARY_MINUS,UNARY_PLUS"/> </module> <module name="NoWhitespaceBefore"/> <module name="OperatorWrap"/> <module name="ParenPad"/> <module name="TypecastParenPad"/> <module name="TabCharacter"> <property name="severity" value="ignore"/> </module> <module name="WhitespaceAfter"/> <module name="WhitespaceAround"/> <module name="ModifierOrder"/> <module name="RedundantModifier"/> <module name="AvoidNestedBlocks"/> <module name="EmptyBlock"/> <module name="LeftCurly"> <property name="option" value="nl"/> </module> <module name="NeedBraces"/> <module name="RightCurly"> <property name="option" value="alone"/> </module> <module name="AvoidInlineConditionals"/> <module name="DoubleCheckedLocking"/> <module name="EmptyStatement"/> <module name="EqualsHashCode"/> <module name="HiddenField"/> <module name="IllegalInstantiation"/> <module name="InnerAssignment"/> <module name="MagicNumber"/> <module name="MissingSwitchDefault"/> <module name="RedundantThrows"/> <module name="SimplifyBooleanExpression"/> <module name="SimplifyBooleanReturn"/> <module name="FinalClass"/> <module name="HideUtilityClassConstructor"/> <module name="InterfaceIsType"/> <module name="VisibilityModifier"/> <module name="ArrayTypeStyle"/> <module name="FinalParameters"/> <module name="GenericIllegalRegexp"> <property name="severity" value="error"/> <property name="format" value="System.out.println()|printStackTrace()"/> <property name="ignoreCase" value="true"/> <property name="message" value="usage of System.out.println() or printStackTrace()"/> </module> <module name="TodoComment"> <property name="severity" value="ignore"/> </module> <module name="UpperEll"/> <module name="ExecutableStatementCount"> <property name="max" value="25"/> <property name="tokens" value="INSTANCE_INIT,STATIC_INIT,METHOD_DEF,CTOR_DEF"/> </module> <module name="ExecutableStatementCount"> <property name="severity" value="error"/> <property name="max" value="35"/> <property name="tokens" value="INSTANCE_INIT,STATIC_INIT,METHOD_DEF,CTOR_DEF"/> </module> <module name="CyclomaticComplexity"> <property name="max" value="7"/> </module> <module name="CyclomaticComplexity"> <property name="severity" value="error"/> </module> <module name="WriteTag"> <metadata name="com.atlassw.tools.eclipse.checkstyle.comment" value="Author name should be "Company\Author""/> <property name="tag" value="@author"/> <property name="tagFormat" value="[A-Z]*\\[A-Z]*"/> <property name="tagSeverity" value="ignore"/> </module> </module> <module name="NewlineAtEndOfFile"/> <module name="Translation"/> </module>
