Olga Natkovich updated PIG-128:
-------------------------------
Status: Resolved (was: Patch Available)
Resolution: Won't Fix
We are currently using findbugs for similar purpose. findbugs is used accross
Hadoop
> Incorporate CheckStyle into Pig build.xml (experimental)

> As discussed in the mailing list, now I have included CheckStyle as a part of
> the build process. Some might agree and some might not agree. Please note
> that initially *this is only for experimental purpose*.
> In my opinion, this is a systematic way to control coding style as you expect
> more and more people coming to help, you will need a good system to support.
> *Proposal*
> +Stage1+
> - Checkstyle will run as a part of build process. The output file will be
> created at build/checkstyle/checkstyle-report.txt. This only took a few more
> seconds in my slow development box.
> - At the moment sun's guideline is used with special exceptions Indentation=4
> and neglecting package.html requirement.
> - Failures on Checkstyle will not cause the build to be broken at this stage
> as this will only provide guideline for developers and for committers to make
> decisions whether the patch is ready to be committed. Basically new patches
> should not introduce more violations.
> - From time to time, we should spend some time cleaning up code to reduce the
> number of violations. Before, people just did clean-up and check-in believing
> the code would be cleaner. Now you will have a good indicator to showcase
> your achievement.
> +Stage2+ (don't know when yet)
> - It's interesting that some checks in Checkstyle can help us eliminate
> unforseen bugs such as DoubleCheckingLock, EqualsHashCode, MagicNumber, or
> StringLiteralEquality. These checks should be enforced as errors and break
> the build. The set of such hard checks needs us all to decide. (see
> http://checkstyle.sourceforge.net/config_coding.html)
> From my test, currently we have around 10000 violations.
> Awaiting for suggestions!!!
