description

The java_checkstyle.vim filetype plugin script integrates Checkstyle http://checkstyle.sourceforge.net/ with Vim.  "Checkstyle is a development tool to help programmers write Java code that adheres to a coding standard" (from the Checkstyle home page).  This plugin allows a user to run Checkstyle on the current Java file, putting the results in an errorfile and jumping to the first Checkstyle error.

install details

The java_checkstyle.vim script should be copied to the right directory. On UNIX, this is ~/.vim/ftplugin; see ':help ftplugins' and ':help add-global-plugin' for more information.  You will likely need to specify the location of the checkstyle-all jar file, which can be done either by editing the script itself or by adding the setting to your vimrc file (see the section in the script called "Configuration").  If you have not already done so, you will also need to turn on filetype plugin usage in Vim using the following command (you will probably want to put this in your vimrc file):     :filetype plugin on
