---------------------------------------------

             Summary: Style should be checked during validate, not verify
                 Key: MCHECKSTYLE-269
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCHECKSTYLE-269
             Project: Maven Checkstyle Plugin
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: checkstyle:check
            Reporter: Christopher Tubbs


The style check currently runs by default at the verify phase of the build 
lifecycle.

That is far too late. It should run on the code in the SCM, during the validate 
phase, before any generated sources/resources are created during the build, 
before tests and integration tests (which can take a long time).

If there's a bad style, it should be noticed immediately. The validate phase of 
the Maven build lifecycle is the most appropriate phase for this.
