AARRGGHH!!
I haven't been able to get Jalopy to cooperate in the least. A big part
of it is that the documentation leaves a great deal to be desired in
explaining how to configure it, and naturally the GUI configuration
tool, which seems to be the only method talked about anywhere, doesn't
seem to be working for me. I even tried configuring it via jEdit and
IDEA plug-ins, and neither seems to want to export the setting properly
(there may be a version mismatch there, I'm pretty certain that's the
case with the jEdit plug-in).
I *thought* I had managed to get a conventions file put together
manually, but it wasn't fixing some very trivial things like line length
problems (even though when I loaded the same source file in the IDEA
plug-in config editor I could see that it would in fact fix it).
I'm calling it a night, this has been frustrating me for the better (or
more precisely, WORSE) part of three hours. I'll try again next chance
I get.
If anyone reading this can get the GUI configurator to spit out a
conventions file (using Jalopy 1.5rc1) and send it to me, I'd appreciate
it greatly! The default settings are actually the Sun coding standards,
which the Checkstyle file is set up to use with only minor alterations,
so in theory they should be almost perfectly matched without doing
anything else.

You may want to have a look at Jalopy:
jalopy.sf.net
There are plugins for various IDEs and editors, as well as an Ant task
(IIRC, you can use Ant tasks from Maven?). It won't fix everything, but
it will help enforce many of the more common coding standards. It
should be possible to configure its rules to match those of CheckStyle,
so you could then use CheckStyle to manually deal with what remains that
Jalopy doesn't fix.

It just fills the errors list with checkstyle errors, that you can
then click on to be taken to the file and line. It was very handy for
cleaning up Scripting.

Does it actually reformat the code? Or just report on what should be
reformatted?

I've been using jEdit's checkstyle plugin. I had to temporary modify
the checkstyle xml to remove those dynamic properties, but
otherwise, it
worked great.

I'd like to clean up some of the stylistic errors, but I would prefer
that most of the reformatting be done by a proven tool. I have utter
confidence in IDEA, but I don't know if we can perfectly align the
settings with CheckStyle.

Having CheckStyle standards is great, but I would rather have a
consistent code style that we can enforce with an automatic
reformatting tool.
