Checks that the groups of import declarations appear in the order specifiedby the user. If there is an import but its group is not specified in theconfiguration such an import should be placed at the end of the import list.

Checks the distance between declaration of variable and its first usage.Note : Variable declaration/initialization statements are not countedwhile calculating length.

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.

Checks the Javadoc of a method or constructor.

Violates parameters and type parametersfor which no param tags arepresent can be suppressed by defining propertyallowMissingParamTags.

Violates methods which return non-void but for which no return tag ispresent can be suppressed by defining propertyallowMissingReturnTag.

Violates exceptions which are declared to be thrown (by throws in the methodsignature or by throw new in the method body), but for which no throws tag ispresent by activation of property validateThrows.Note that throw new is not checked in the following places:

• Inside a try block (with catch). It is not possible to determine if the thrownexception can be caught by the catch block as there is no knowledge of theinheritance hierarchy, so the try block is ignored entirely. However, catchand finally blocks, as well as try blocks without catch, are still checked.
• Local classes, anonymous classes and lambda expressions. It is not known when thethrow statements inside such classes are going to be evaluated, so they are ignored.

ATTENTION: Checkstyle does not have information about hierarchy of exception typesso usage of base class is considered as separate exception type.As workaround you need to specify both types in javadoc (parent and exact type).

Javadoc is not required on a method that is tagged with the@Override annotation. However underJava 5 it is not possible to mark a method required for aninterface (this was corrected under Java 6). HenceCheckstyle supports using the convention of using a single{@inheritDoc} tag instead of all theother tags.

Note that only inheritable items will allow the{@inheritDoc} tag to be used in placeof comments. Static methods at all visibilities, private non-staticmethods and constructors are not inheritable.

For example, if the following method isimplementing a method required by an interface, then theJavadoc could be done as:
