            resourceResolverField.set(any, resolver);

Close

This rule raises an issue when reflection is used to change the visibility of a class, method or field, and when it is used to directly update a field value. Altering or bypassing the accessibility of classes, methods, or fields violates the encapsulation principle and could lead to run-time errors.

Noncompliant Code Example

public void makeItPublic(String methodName) throws NoSuchMethodException {

  this.getClass().getMethod(methodName).setAccessible(true); // Noncompliant
}

public void setItAnyway(String fieldName, int value) {
  this.getClass().getDeclaredField(fieldName).setInt(this, value); // Noncompliant; bypasses controls in setter
}

Checks the header of a source file against a header that contains aregular expression for each line of the source header.

Rationale: In some projects checking against afixed header is not sufficient, e.g. the header might require acopyright line where the year information is not static.

For example, consider the following header:

<source><br>line 1: ^/{71}$<br>line 2: ^// checkstyle:$<br>line 3: ^// Checks Java source code for adherence to a set of rules\.$<br>line 4: ^// Copyright \(C\) \d\d\d\d Oliver Burn$<br>line 5: ^// Last modification by \$Author.*\$$<br>line 6: ^/{71}$<br>line 7:<br>line 8: ^package<br>line 9:<br>line 10: ^import<br>line 11:<br>line 12: ^/\*\*<br>line 13: ^ \*([^/]|$)<br>line 14: ^ \*/<br> </source>

Lines 1 and 6 demonstrate a more compact notation for 71 '/'characters. Line 4 enforces that the copyright notice includes afour digit year. Line 5 is an example how to enforce revisioncontrol keywords in a file header. Lines 12-14 is a template forjavadoc (line 13 is so complicated to remove conflict with and ofjavadoc comment). Lines 7, 9 and 11 will be treated as '^$' andwill forcefully expect the line to be empty.

Different programming languages have different comment syntaxrules, but all of them start a comment with a non-wordcharacter. Hence you can often use the non-word characterclass to abstract away the concrete comment syntax and allowchecking the header for different languages with a singleheader definition. For example, consider the following headerspecification (note that this is not the full Apache licenseheader):

<source><br>line 1: ^#!<br>line 2: ^&lt;\?xml.*&gt;$<br>line 3: ^\W*$<br>line 4: ^\W*Copyright 2006 The Apache Software Foundation or its licensors, as applicable\.$<br>line 5: ^\W*Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2\.0 \(the "License"\);$<br>line 6: ^\W*$<br> </source>

Lines 1 and 2 leave room for technical header lines, e.g. the"#!/bin/sh" line in Unix shell scripts, or the XML file headerof XML files. Set the multiline property to "1, 2" so theselines can be ignored for file types where they do no apply.Lines 3 through 6 define the actual header content. Note howlines 2, 4 and 5 use escapes for characters that have specialregexp semantics.

In default configuration, if header is not specified, the default valueof header is set to null and the check does not rise any violations.
