[mojo-dev] [jira] (MANIMALSNIFFER-30) Hyperlink violations back to source

[Jesse Glick (JIRA)]

Jesse Glick created MANIMALSNIFFER-30 Hyperlink violations back to source Issue Type: New Feature Affects Versions: 1.7 Assignee: Stephen Connolly Components: Maven Plugin Created: 04/Sep/12 5:22 PM Description: A violation line such as Undefined reference: java/io/IOException.<init>(Ljava/lang/Throwable;)V in ~/src/myprj/target/classes/pkg/Clazz.class is awkward to deal with. There is no hyperlinking to the source file if you are using an IDE (or Emacs compile-mode etc.), and there is not even a line number, so you have to find and open pkg.Class manually, and then search for new IOException and try to find the faulty line of code. SignatureChecker.CheckingVisitor.visitMethod should override visitLineNumber to start with. And the animal-sniffer component should define an optional way to associate a sourcepath, not just a classpath, with the input; if a reported class has a matching source file, produce a hyperlinkable line: ~/src/myprj/src/main/java/pkg/Clazz.java:44: Undefined reference: java/io/IOException.<init>(Ljava/lang/Throwable;)V At least animal-sniffer-maven-plugin could pass in src/main/java/ plus any generated source roots defined in the project, which would typically suffice. Would also be nice to report references in Java source syntax whenever possible: ~/src/myprj/src/main/java/pkg/Clazz.java:44: Undefined reference: new java.io.IOException(java.lang.Throwable) Project: Mojo Animal Sniffer Priority: Major Reporter: Jesse Glick
