Key: HIVE-1198
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1198
Project: Hadoop Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Build Infrastructure
Environment: Mac OS X (10.6.2), Eclipse 3.5.1.R35, Checkstyle Plugin
5.1.0.201002232103 (latest eclipse and checkstyle build as of 02/2010)
Reporter: Arvind Prabhakar
Priority: Minor
As of now, checkstyle plugin reports all problems as errors. This causes an
overwhelming number of errors to show up (3000+) which masks real errors that
might be there. Since all the checkstyle violations are not going to be fixed
in one shot, it is desirable to lower the severity of checkstyle violations to
warnings so that the plugin can be kept enabled. This will encourage developers
to spot checkstyle violations in the files they touch and potentially fix them
as they go along, along with pointing out violations as they code.
