   > > This is indeed great @janniklinde. It will make it easier to merge 
smaller patches from external contributors. Wondering is there a way to check 
the codestyle against the dev/CodeStyle_eclipse.xml file? There are many other 
checks available in that file, such as line length.

   > Should be possible @phaniarnab, I can look into that. However, I guess 
that we will have to suppress a lot of existing java classes because these 
checks will be quite strict. In general, I agree that it should be enforced to 
run the code formatter before merging to keep the styles consistent, I am just 
not sure how to cleanly transition to that state.
   
   Thanks. I do not have a clear answer. I think your approach of incrementally 
adding new rules is likely the right approach. Our goal is to enforce 
consistent code style for developers, without requiring them to modify or 
reformat existing code written by others.
