Some checks need the compiled classes (for instance JavadocMethod)
------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MCHECKSTYLE-40
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCHECKSTYLE-40
Project: Maven 2.x Checkstyle Plugin
Type: Bug
Environment: Checkstyle 4.1
Reporter: Fabian Bauschulte
Priority: Minor
Attachments: example-project.zip
Some standard checks - for instance "JavadocMethod" need the compiled classes;
overwise terminate with an internal error. The documentation of checkstyle says
for "JavadocMethod": [...] "The classpath may need to be configured to locate
the class information. The classpath configuration is dependent on the
mechanism used to invoke Checkstyle."
Checkstyle tries to analyse if a thrown exception extends RuntimeException - if
this information isn´t there it causes an error.
It's possible that during site generation the compiled classes don't. If there
isn't a general solution it would be helpful to place a workaround or a hint in
the documentation.
