Checks whether files end with a line separator.
Rationale: Any source files and text files in general shouldend with a line separator to let other easily add new contentat the end of file and "diff" command does not show previous lines as changed.
Example (line 36 should not be in diff):
<source><br>@@ -32,4 +32,5 @@ ForbidWildcardAsReturnTypeCheck.returnTypeClassNamesIgnoreRegex<br>PublicReferenceToPrivateTypeCheck.name = Public Reference To Private Type<br><br>StaticMethodCandidateCheck.name = Static Method Candidate<br>-StaticMethodCandidateCheck.desc = Checks whether private methods should be declared as static.<br>\ No newline at end of file<br>+StaticMethodCandidateCheck.desc = Checks whether private methods should be declared as static.<br>+StaticMethodCandidateCheck.skippedMethods = Method names to skip during the check.<br> </source>It can also trick the VCS to report the wrong owner for such lines.An engineer who has added nothing but a newline character becomesthe last known author for the entire line. As a result, a mate can askhim a question to which he will not give the correct answer.
Old Rationale: CVS source control managementsystems will even print a warning when itencounters a file that doesn't end with a line separator.
Attention: property fileExtensions works with files that are passed by similar propertyfor at Checker.Please make sure required file extensions are mentioned at Checker's fileExtensionsproperty.

Checks for long lines.
Rationale: Long lines are hard to read in printouts or if developershave limited screen space for the source code, e.g. if the IDEdisplays additional information like project tree, class hierarchy,etc.
