-- Providing a build-in configuration --

By providing a fragment the plug-in enables you to roll out an immutable Checkstyle configuration to your team members.
This is especially powerful if you distribute your fragment via a corporate update site

You can provide such a built-in configuration by the use of the com.atlassw.tools.eclipse.checkstyle.configurations extension point.

Simply package you configuration file with your fragment and add a similar entry (see example below) to your fragment.xml.

Example:

<extension
    id= "com.mychecks"
    point= "com.atlassw.tools.eclipse.checkstyle.configurations" >
    <check-configuration
        name= "My built-in configuration"
        description= "The mandatory set of checkstyle rules for my company."
        location= "my-custom-builtin-configuration.xml" >
    </check-configuration>
</extension>
