factor out openjpa-project/checkstyle.xml to own maven project
--------------------------------------------------------------
Key: OPENJPA-2090
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-2090
Project: OpenJPA
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: build / infrastructure
Affects Versions: 2.2.0
Reporter: Mark Struberg
Assignee: Mark Struberg
Fix For: 2.2.0
Currently our build scripts adopt a file-based way to reference our checkstyle
configuration. With having lots of sub-modules with a deeply nested structure,
this introduces quite some maintenance effort (e.g. when you try to add
integration tests).
There is another way to incorporate checkstyles for a project easily: serve
them in an own maven artifact and include them as dependency of the
maven-checkstyle-plugin.
See OpenWebBeans and MyFaces of how this looks like:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openwebbeans/build-tools/trunk/ for the
openwebbeans-checkstyle-rules, and
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openwebbeans/trunk/pom.xml for how it's being
used (see maven-checkstyle-plugin section)
This can e.g. also be used to detect missing ASF headers in java files, etc.
