All Implemented Interfaces:

Configurable, Contextualizable, FileSetCheck

public class UniquePropertiesCheck
extends AbstractFileSetCheck

Detects duplicated keys in properties files.

Rationale: Multiple property keys usually appear after merge or rebase of several branches. While there are no problems in runtime, there can be a confusion due to having different values for the duplicated properties.

• Property fileExtensions - Specify the file extensions of the files to process. Type is java.lang.String[]. Default value is .properties.

Parent is com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.Checker

Violation Message Keys:

• properties.duplicate.property
• unable.open.cause
