    * Check text for Javadoc statements that do not have any description. 
This includes both completely empty Javadoc, and Javadoc with only tags such as @param and @return. 
    * Check text for incomplete HTML tags. Verifies that HTML tags have corresponding end tags and issues an "Unclosed HTML tag found:" error if not. An "Extra HTML tag found:" error is issued if an end tag is found without a previous open tag. 
    * Check that a package Javadoc comment is well-formed (as described above) and NOT missing from any package-info.java files. 
    * Check for allowed HTML tags.

An example inline conditional is this: String a = getParameter("a"); String b = (a==null || a.length<1) ? null : a.substring(1); 
Rationale: Some developers find inline conditionals hard to read, so their company's coding standards forbids them. --> 
<module name="AvoidInlineConditionals"/> 
<!-- The "double-checked locking" idiom (DCL) tries to avoid the runtime cost of synchronization. 
An example that uses the DCL idiom is this: 
public class MySingleton { 
    private static theInstance = null; 
    private MySingleton() {} 
    public MySingleton getInstance() {
         if ( theInstance == null ) {
               // synchronize only if necessary 
               synchronized( MySingleton.class ) { 
                    if ( theInstance == null ) { 
                          theInstance = new MySingleton(); 
                    }
              }
         }
    }
} 
The problem with the DCL idiom in Java is that it just does not work correctly. 
Using it introduces bugs that are extremely hard to track down and reproduce. 
The "Double-Checked Locking is Broken" Declaration has an in depth explanation of the exact problem which has to do with the semantics of the Java memory model. 
The DoubleCheckedLocking check will find source code where a test is wrapped
 in a synchronized block that is wrapped in the same test, like in the example above. -->

 <module name="EqualsHashCode"/>
 <!-- Checks that a local variable or a parameter does not shadow a field that is defined in the same class.-->
 <module name="HiddenField"/>
 <!-- Checks for illegal instantiations where a factory method is preferred. 
Rationale: Depending on the project, for some classes it might be preferable to create instances through factory methods rather than calling the constructor.
 A simple example is the java.lang.Boolean class. In order to save memory and CPU cycles, 
it is preferable to use the predefined constants TRUE and FALSE.
 Constructor invocations should be replaced by calls to Boolean.valueOf(). 
Some extremely performance sensitive projects may require the use of factory methods for other classes as well, 
to enforce the usage of number caches or object pools. --> 
<module name="IllegalInstantiation"> 
<property name="classes" value="java.lang.Boolean"/> 
</module> 
<!-- Checks for assignments in subexpressions, such as in String s = Integer.toString(i = 2);
. Rationale: With the exception of for iterators, all assignments should occur in their own toplevel statement to increase readability.
 With inner assignments like the above it is difficult to see all places where a variable is set. --> 
<module name="InnerAssignment"/>
 <!-- Checks that there are no "magic numbers", where a magic number is a numeric literal that is not defined as a constant. 
By default, -1, 0, 1, and 2 are not considered to be magic numbers. --> 
<module name="MagicNumber"/>
 <!-- Checks that switch statement has "default" clause. 
检查switch语句是否有‘default’从句 Rationale: It's usually a good idea to introduce a default case in every switch statement.
 Even if the developer is sure that all currently possible cases are covered, this should be expressed in the default branch, e.g. by using an assertion. 
This way the code is protected aginst later changes, e.g. introduction of new types in an enumeration type. -->
 <module name="MissingSwitchDefault"/>
 <!-- Checks for redundant exceptions declared in throws clause such as duplicates,
 unchecked exceptions or subclasses of another declared exception.

 <!-- Checks for overly complicated boolean expressions.

 <module name="SimplifyBooleanExpression"/>
 <!-- Checks for overly complicated boolean return statements.
 For example the following code 检查是否存在过度复杂的boolean返回值 
if (valid()) return false; else return true; could be written as return !valid(); The Idea for this Check has been shamelessly stolen from the equivalent PMD rule. -->
 <module name="SimplifyBooleanReturn"/> 
<!-- Checks for class design -->
 <!-- See http://checkstyle.sf.net/config_design.html -->
 <!-- Checks that classes are designed for extension. More specifically,
 it enforces a programming style where superclasses provide empty "hooks" that can be implemented by subclasses. 
检查子类是否非法破坏了父类或接口的限制条件 The exact rule is that nonprivate, 
nonstatic methods of classes that can be subclassed must either be * abstract or * final or * have an empty implementation 
Rationale: This API design style protects superclasses against beeing broken by subclasses. 
The downside is that subclasses are limited in their flexibility, in particular they cannot prevent execution of code in the superclass,
 but that also means that subclasses cannot corrupt the state of the superclass by forgetting to call the super method. --> 
<module name="DesignForExtension"/> 
<!-- Checks that a class which has only private constructors is declared as final.只有私有构造器的类必须声明为final-->
 <module name="FinalClass"/> 
<!-- Make sure that utility classes (classes that contain only static methods or fields in their API) do not have a public constructor. 确保Utils类（只提供static方法和属性的类）没有public构造器。
 Rationale: Instantiating utility classes does not make sense. Hence the constructors should either be private or (if you want to allow subclassing) protected.
 A common mistake is forgetting to hide the default constructor. If you make the constructor protected you may want to consider the following constructor implementation technique to disallow instantiating subclasses:
 public class StringUtils // not final to allow subclassing {
     protected StringUtils() { 
        throw new UnsupportedOperationException(); 
        // prevents calls from subclass 
      } 
    public static int count(char c, String s) { 
          // ... 
    } 
}-->
 <module name="HideUtilityClassConstructor"/> 
<!-- Implements Bloch, Effective Java, Item 17 - Use Interfaces only to define types. 
不允许interface像java.ioSerializable一样只作为标记，不包含任何methods和constants。
 According to Bloch, an interface should describe a type. It is therefore inappropriate to define an interface that does not contain any methods but only constants.
 The Standard class javax.swing.SwingConstants is an example of a class that would be flagged by this check.
 The check can be configured to also disallow marker interfaces like java.io.Serializable, that do not contain methods or constants at all. -->
 <module name="InterfaceIsType"/> 
<!-- Checks visibility of class members. Only static final members may be public;
 other class members must be private unless property protectedAllowed or packageAllowed is set.
 检查class成员属性可见性。只有static final 修饰的成员是可以public的。
其他的成员属性必需是private的，除非属性protectedAllowed或者packageAllowed设置了true. 
Public members are not flagged if the name matches the public member regular expression (contains "^serialVersionUID$" by default).
 Note: Checkstyle 2 used to include "^f[A-Z][a-zA-Z0-9]*$" in the default pattern to allow CMP for EJB 1.1 with the default settings. With EJB 2.0 it is not longer necessary to have public access for persistent fields, hence the default has been changed.

 <!-- Checks the style of array type definitions. Some like Java-style: public static void main(String[] args) and some like C-style: public static void main(String args[]) 检查再定义数组时，
采用java风格还是c风格，例如：int[] num是java风格，int num[]是c风格。默认是java风格--> 
<module name="ArrayTypeStyle"/>
 <!-- Check that method/constructor/catch block parameters are final.
 Interface and abstract methods are not checked - the final keyword does not make sense for interface and abstract method parameters as there is no code that could modify the parameter.
 检查method/constructor/catch块中的参数是否是final修饰的。 Rationale: Changing the value of parameters during the execution of the method's algorithm can be confusing and should be avoided.
 A great way to let the Java compiler prevent this coding style is to declare parameters final. -->
