public class LocalVariableNameCheck extends AbstractNameCheck
Checks that local, non-final variable names conform to a format specified by the format property. A catch parameter is considered to be a local variable. The format is a
regular expression
and defaults to ^[a-z][a-zA-Z0-9]*$.An example of how to configure the check is:
<module name="LocalVariableName"/>
An example of how to configure the check for names that begin with a lower case letter, followed by letters, digits, and underscores is:
<module name="LocalVariableName"> <property name="format" value="^[a-z](_?[a-zA-Z0-9]+)*$"/> </module>
An example of one character variable name in initialization expression(like "i") in FOR loop:
for(int i = 1; i < 10; i++) {}
An example of how to configure the check to allow one char variable name in initialization expressions in FOR loop:
<module name="LocalVariableName"> <property name="allowOneCharVarInForLoop" value="true"/> </module>

Method Detail
-
setAllowOneCharVarInForLoop
public final void setAllowOneCharVarInForLoop(boolean allow)
Sets whether to allow one character name in FOR loop or not.- Parameters:
allow
- Flag for allowing or not one character name in FOR loop.
-
getDefaultTokens
public int[] getDefaultTokens()
Description copied from class:AbstractCheck
Returns the default token a check is interested in. Only used if the configuration for a check does not define the tokens.- Specified by:
getDefaultTokens
in classAbstractCheck
- Returns:
- the default tokens
- See Also:
TokenTypes
-
getAcceptableTokens
public int[] getAcceptableTokens()
Description copied from class:AbstractCheck
The configurable token set. Used to protect Checks against malicious users who specify an unacceptable token set in the configuration file. The default implementation returns the check's default tokens.- Specified by:
getAcceptableTokens
in classAbstractCheck
- Returns:
- the token set this check is designed for.
- See Also:
TokenTypes
-
getRequiredTokens
public int[] getRequiredTokens()
Description copied from class:AbstractCheck
The tokens that this check must be registered for.- Specified by:
getRequiredTokens
in classAbstractCheck
- Returns:
- the token set this must be registered for.
- See Also:
TokenTypes
-
mustCheckName
protected final boolean mustCheckName(DetailAST ast)
Description copied from class:AbstractNameCheck
Decides whether the name of an AST should be checked against the format regexp.- Specified by:
mustCheckName
in classAbstractNameCheck
- Parameters:
ast
- the AST to check.- Returns:
- true if the IDENT subnode of ast should be checked against the format regexp.
