Thanks for the answer. So, I tried maven-checkstyle-plugin 2.2 and it didn't work either, but that's a good beginning to have the correct plugin version... In the xml checkstyle configuration file where modules are defined, i tried to change <module name="TreeWalker"> by <module name="com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.TreeWalker">and it now works. I don't really understand why we have to specify the fully qualified name of this class, because it works fine when not using maven.
