ModifierOrderDescriptionChecks that the order of modifiers conforms to the suggestions in the Java Language specification, sections 8.1.1, 8.3.1 and 8.4.3. The correct order is:
ExampleTo configure the check: <module name="ModifierOrder"/> Packagecom.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.checks Parent ModuleRedundantModifierChecks that method declarations in interfaces include neither the public modifier nor the abstract modifier (see the Java Language specification, section 9.4). Also checks that variable declarations in interfaces include none of the following modifiers: public, static, final (variables in interface definitions are constants and have these modifiers implicitly, see the Java Language specification, section 9.3). Properties
ExampleTo configure the check: <module name="RedundantModifier"/> To configure the check to check only methods and not variables: <module name="RedundantModifier"> <property name="tokens" value="METHOD_DEF"/> </module> Packagecom.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.checks Parent ModuleVisibilityModifierChecks visibility of class members. Only static final members may be public; other class members must be private unless property protectedAllowed or packageAllowed is set. Public members are not flagged if the name matches the public member regular expression (contains "^serialVersionUID$" by default). Note: Checkstyle 2 used to include "^f[A-Z][a-zA-Z0-9]*$" in the default pattern to allow CMP for EJB 1.1 with the default settings. With EJB 2.0 it is not longer necessary to have public access for persistent fields, hence the default has been changed. Rationale: Enforce encapsulation. Properties
ExamplesTo configure the check: <module name="VisibilityModifier"/> To configure the check so that it allows package visible members: <module name="VisibilityModifier"> <property name="packageAllowed" value="true"/> </module> To configure the check so that it allows no public members: <module name="VisibilityModifier"> <property name="publicMemberPattern" value="^$"/> </module> Packagecom.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.checks Parent Module |
