Description

There are many violations found by Mark's tools(Harmony-1960). To fix and avoid them, I suggest to use CheckStyle as a Eclipse plugin, which will highlights all possiable violate lines in your editor windows.

I post my configuration here as an initial. It must be not very precise, you can customize it by yourself. Any bug report are welcome.

HOW TO
1,Install CheckStyle, you can find it at http://eclipse-cs.sourceforge.net/ .
2,After that you can find an item named checkstyle in your eclipse menu-windows-preferences, click the new button and then import my configuration.
3,In the properties of a project, there is also an item named checkstyle, you can enable checkstyle for your project here. remember to select the right configuration you just import.
4,If you get an out of memory error, you can do something in its exclude options. for example, exclude files not opened in the editor.
