Enrico, I want the same thing. We encourage all contributors to use NetBeans to reformat code using the default settings before making a pull request and I would love to be able to point these contributors to a single Checkstyle file that confirms to the out of the box NetBeans formatting defaults.
John, are you saying that one of those four files (avalon_checks.xml, maven_checks.xml, sun_checks.xml, or turbine_checks.xml) is the file I should try? Do you or anyone else know which one matches the NetBeans formatting defaults? In the absence of having a Checkstyle file that implements the default NetBeans formatting rules, in our project (Dataverse) we have started constructing a Checkstyle file in which we try to mimic Netbeans but right now we only have two rules (spaces instead of tabs and curly brace placement). Please see http://guides.dataverse.org/en/4.10/developers/coding-style.html#checking-your-formatting-with-checkstyle for our write up and https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/blob/v4.10/checkstyle.xml for our file that has only the two checks above. I would love to be able to replace our file with only the two checks with the "real" Checkstyle file that implements all the out of the box NetBeans formatting rules.
