checkstyle

"Testing can show the presence of errors, but not their absence." - E. Dijkstra

This site applies checkstyle to verify that a Java source file conforms to style conventions. Several coding styles are supported:

• Sun code conventions
• "Big Java" style guidelines

Bear in mind that checkstyle does not identify all style errors; ultimately it is your responsibility to follow your style conventions. Also, it is possible that a checkstyle error report contradicts your style conventions.

To submit a Java source file for style checking,

1. Enter the full path name to the file, or click Browse... and select the file.
2. Click the coding style.
3. Click Submit.
