> Since [version
> 3.5|http://checkstyle.sourceforge.net/releasenotes.html#Release%203.5],
> Checkstyle allows to configure the encoding used to read source files
> (somehow weird, they included this setting in the XML config which limits
> reusability among unrelated projects). Unless this is specified by the user
> via the [charset
> property|http://checkstyle.sourceforge.net/config.html#TreeWalker], it
> defaults to the system property "file.encoding". This makes the checks
> platform-dependent and possibly fail. For reproducible builds, the encoding
> should be locked down.
