public class AnnotationLocationCheck extends AbstractCheck
Checks location of annotation on language elements. By default, Check enforce to locate annotations immediately after documentation block and before target element, annotation should be located on separate line from target element. This check also verifies that the annotations are on the same indenting level as the annotated element if they are not on the same line.
Attention: Elements that cannot have JavaDoc comments like local variables are not in the
scope of this check even though a token type like VARIABLE_DEF
would match them.
Attention: Annotations among modifiers are ignored (looks like false-negative) as there might be a problem with annotations for return types:
public @Nullable Long getStartTimeOrNull() { ... }
Such annotations are better to keep close to type. Due to limitations, Checkstyle can not examine the target of an annotation.
Example:
@Override @Nullable public String getNameIfPresent() { ... }
allowSamelineMultipleAnnotations
- Allow annotation(s) to be located on
the same line as target element.
Type is boolean
.
Default value is false
.
allowSamelineSingleParameterlessAnnotation
- Allow single parameterless
annotation to be located on the same line as target element.
Type is boolean
.
Default value is true
.
allowSamelineParameterizedAnnotation
- Allow one and only parameterized
annotation to be located on the same line as target element.
Type is boolean
.
Default value is false
.
tokens
- tokens to check
Type is int[]
.
Default value is:
CLASS_DEF,
INTERFACE_DEF,
PACKAGE_DEF,
ENUM_CONSTANT_DEF,
ENUM_DEF,
METHOD_DEF,
CTOR_DEF,
VARIABLE_DEF.
Default configuration, to allow one single parameterless annotation on the same line:
<module name="AnnotationLocation"/>
Example for above configuration:
@NotNull private boolean field1; //ok @Override public int hashCode() { return 1; } //ok @NotNull //ok private boolean field2; @Override //ok public boolean equals(Object obj) { return true; } @Mock DataLoader loader; //ok @SuppressWarnings("deprecation") DataLoader loader; //violation @SuppressWarnings("deprecation") public int foo() { return 1; } //violation @NotNull @Mock DataLoader loader; //violation
Use the following configuration to allow multiple annotations on the same line:
<module name="AnnotationLocation"> <property name="allowSamelineMultipleAnnotations" value="true"/> <property name="allowSamelineSingleParameterlessAnnotation" value="false"/> <property name="allowSamelineParameterizedAnnotation" value="false"/> </module>
Example to allow any location multiple annotations:
@NotNull private boolean field1; //ok @Override public int hashCode() { return 1; } //ok @NotNull //ok private boolean field2; @Override //ok public boolean equals(Object obj) { return true; } @Mock DataLoader loader; //ok @SuppressWarnings("deprecation") DataLoader loader; //ok @SuppressWarnings("deprecation") public int foo() { return 1; } //ok @NotNull @Mock DataLoader loader; //ok
Use the following configuration to allow only one and only parameterized annotation on the same line:
<module name="AnnotationLocation"> <property name="allowSamelineMultipleAnnotations" value="false"/> <property name="allowSamelineSingleParameterlessAnnotation" value="false"/> <property name="allowSamelineParameterizedAnnotation" value="true"/> </module>
Example to allow only one and only parameterized annotation on the same line:
@NotNull private boolean field1; //violation @Override public int hashCode() { return 1; } //violation @NotNull //ok private boolean field2; @Override //ok public boolean equals(Object obj) { return true; } @Mock DataLoader loader; //violation @SuppressWarnings("deprecation") DataLoader loader; //ok @SuppressWarnings("deprecation") public int foo() { return 1; } //ok @NotNull @Mock DataLoader loader; //violation
Use the following configuration to only validate annotations on methods to allow one single parameterless annotation on the same line:
<module name="AnnotationLocation"> <property name="tokens" value="METHOD_DEF"/> <property name="allowSamelineMultipleAnnotations" value="false"/> <property name="allowSamelineSingleParameterlessAnnotation" value="true"/> <property name="allowSamelineParameterizedAnnotation" value="false"/> </module>
Example for above configuration to check only methods:
@NotNull private boolean field1; //ok @Override public int hashCode() { return 1; } //ok @NotNull //ok private boolean field2; @Override //ok public boolean equals(Object obj) { return true; } @Mock DataLoader loader; //ok @SuppressWarnings("deprecation") DataLoader loader; //ok @SuppressWarnings("deprecation") public int foo() { return 1; } //violation @NotNull @Mock DataLoader loader; //ok
