The eclipse-cs Checkstyle plug-in integrates the well-known source code analyzer Checkstyle into today's leading IDE - Eclipse. Checkstyle is a development tool to help you ensure that your Java code adheres to a set of coding standards. Checkstyle does this by inspecting your Java source code and pointing out items that deviate from a defined set of coding rules. With the Checkstyle Eclipse plug-in your code is constantly inspected for problems. Within the Eclipse workbench you are notified of problems via the Eclipse Problems View and source code annotations just as you would see with compiler errors or warnings. A comfortable Check Configuration Editor helps you create and maintain your audit rule configurations. Using filters and file sets you are able to define which files get checked and which don't.

It worked fine when installed but the coding conventions were built in, not easily modified (if at all) and the results did not automatically show up in a tab. The default configuration seems to require that each class be opened to review the issues. The developer used tabs so every line within the class was yellow which rendered the tool useless for finding other more significant problems without finding a way to turn off the tab check. this makes the "out of the box" setup pretty useless.

As with everything I have encountered so far with the Eclipse platform, the configuration UI is just so painful to use that I ended up disabling the plugin instead of trying to figure out which rule made unused variables keep my project from compiling.
