You can set your checkstyle properties on a per-user basis, per-build
basis, or per-project basis (via ~/build.properties, build.properties,
project.properties files).  Does this not adequately meet your needs?

At the moment this is not supported.  It is assumed that an entire
project should adhere to the same coding style.  I'm curious how many
people would be interested in setting style policy settings on a
per-location basis in the source tree.  Is this something that many
people would want?  I guess I don't see the value, when I check source
into my source trees, I want it all to comply to my licensing, styles
conventions, and other policies.

Thanks,
Pete
