-----------------------------------------
Summary: Exclude generated sources / test-sources from default
source / test-source directories
Key: MCHECKSTYLE-412
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCHECKSTYLE-412
Project: Maven Checkstyle Plugin
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: checkstyle:check, checkstyle:checkstyle
Affects Versions: 3.1.2
Reporter: Zhenlei Huang
The default value of parameter `sourceDirectories` is
`${project.compileSourceRoots}`, which includes generated sources. And for
`testSourceDirectories` is `${project.testCompileSourceRoots}` which includes
generated test sources.
The major usage of checkstyle is to enforce rules on human written codes and
docs. The generated ones commonly come from third-party templates or scripts,
and it probably does not meet user defined checkstyle rules.
We can bravely conclude exclude the generated sources / test sources
directories and the impact should be trivial.
