regression: config file not found anymore at the root of current project ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MCHECKSTYLE-133 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCHECKSTYLE-133 Project: Maven 2.x Checkstyle Plugin Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.5 Environment: Windows XP JDK 1.6.0_18 Maven 2.2.1 Maven checkstyle 2.5 Reporter: Vernat Regression: With maven checkstyle plugin 2.5, the config file is not found anymore at the root of the current project with <configLocation>checkstyle.xml</configLocation>. It was found with maven checkstyle plugin 2.4. This issue is similar to issue MCHECKSTYLE-131 but I do not have a parent project. Steps to reproduce: Checkout current version from http://code.google.com/p/javamelody/source/browse/#svn/trunk/javamelody-core Run the goal checkstyle:checkstyle : ok with 2.5 because pom.xml includes ${basedir} Remove "${basedir}/" from configLocation (the config file is in the root dir beside pom.xml) Run the goal checkstyle:checkstyle : config file not found with 2.5 ! Add <version>2.4</version> for maven-checkstyle-plugin Run the goal checkstyle:checkstyle : ok with 2.4 I think that a lot of users are concerned by this issue, for example because the eclipse checkstyle plugin write the default local config file to .checkstyle.xml in the root of the project, or for example because all versions that I know of the maven pmd plugin and the maven checkstyle plugin prior to version 2.5 does found the config file at the root of the project. I do note that there is no warning in checkstyle documentation to explain that our pom.xml files need change of configLocation to use version 2.5.
