Hi,

The checkstyle task uses ${maven.src.dir} as its fileset. The problem
with this are :

1/ If you have the following directory structure :

src
  |_ java
  |_ test

then the checkstyle reports give file name prefixed with java/ or test/

but more importantly 

2/ it breaks the xref link (on the line number) as xref uses the
maven.src.set sourcepathref (which I imagine come from the POM) to
generate its html files.

Solution:

Use maven.src.set in the checkstyle task. However, we need to transform
maven.src.set into a patternset to be able to use it in a fileset ...

A solution I can see is to write an Ant task that does this. Something
like :

<path2filelist patternsetid="new pattern set id">
  <path ...>
</path2filelist>

where <path...> accepts a pathid attribute referring to an already
defined path set.

I'm sure there are other ways (especially with Ant 1.5). Do you know any
other ?

Thanks
-Vincent
