Support for intellij code formatting using checkstyle scheme with suppressions? #640

Closed derekobrien27 closed 5 months ago

derekobrien27 commented 5 months ago

I have the checkstyle plugin setup and working well for checks and can successfully import the scheme when formatting code.

However, the formatter does not respect the associated suppressions file, which is located alongside the checkstyle.xml. Suppressions are respected when doing checks, but I can't get the formatter to play along.

Am I doing something wrong or is this just not supported? If the latter, could this be implemented? Thanks in advance.

It's not supported I fear, and I don't believe it's something we can implement.

All the format importer does is convert the Checkstyle rules to IDEA rules; once that's done, we have no further control - IDEA's formatting engine takes over and controls where and when it's run. Sorry.
