JavacLintSummary

JavacLintSummary prints a summary of how many of each type of lint or doclint message are generated in the given files and packages.

The programs work by compiling the given files and packages, and analysing the diagnostics generated by javac. It generated a table identifying the number of each category of diagnostic in each package for which diagnostics are reported.

JavacLintSummary can write an XML file for use with the Plot Plugin for Hudson or Jenkins, to facilitate displaying trend graphs for the number of warnings in a package or the number of warnings of a particular type.

Usage

  java -jar javacLintSummary.jar options files-or-packages

Options

files-or-packages Files are recognized by ending in .java. Packages can be given as p.q or p.q.**. They are expanded using the value of -sourcepath. p.q expands to the set of compilation units in package p.q; p.q.** expands to the set of compilation units in package p.q and all subpackages.
Take care to quote the wildcard form when necessary, such as on a shell command line.
