I am trying to build TC 8.5.24 from source and running into checkstyle
validation issues [1]. I looked at
https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.5-doc/building.html and couldn't find
anything that suggest that the default target would not build, neither
checkstyle is mentioned. It is not a problem, because i can turn off the
checkstyle validation can be turned off in a custome build.properties with
"execute.validate=false" but I was wondering if the TC devs would like to at
least mention it on the build instructions page OR fix the checkstyle issues....
