Noémi Balassa commented on MCHECKSTYLE-321:
-------------------------------------------
I had the same desire and made it work like this:
{code:xml}
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-checkstyle-plugin</artifactId>
...
<configuration>
<sourceDirectories>${project.basedir}</sourceDirectories>
<testSourceDirectories/><!-- This became pointless. -->
</configuration>
...
</plugin>
</plugins>
{code}
Also:
{code:xml}
<properties>
<checkstyle.includes>*.xml,src/**/*.java,etc.</checkstyle.includes>
<checkstyle.resourceIncludes/>
</properties>
{code}
This way there is no differentiation between sources and resources, but that
can be done in the configuration based on file extensions.

> Key: MCHECKSTYLE-321
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCHECKSTYLE-321
> Project: Maven Checkstyle Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: checkstyle:check
> Affects Versions: 2.17
> Reporter: Vincent Zurczak
> Priority: Trivial
>
> Today, the Maven Checkstyle plug-in allows to verify files within the Maven
> directories: sources, test sources, resources and test resources.
> In addition to this, I would personnaly like to verify my *pom.xml* file.
> I have tried many things but I did not succeed in validating my POM files
> with Checkstyle. And looking at the code, I think I saw why.
> The reason for such a verification is that this file also contains license
> headers that I would like to keep verified. And I am pretty sure there would
> be other rules I would like to check (such as indentation, etc).
> If we consider other project kinds, such as Eclipse plug-ins, one may want to
> verify *plugin.xml* and *feature.xml* files. So, it would be nice to be able
> to specify *otherIncludes* in the plug-in's configuration. This new parameter
> would contain a list of files to verify, when they exist.
> If the idea is accepted, I am ready to contribute a patch for this feature.
