Class IllegalImportCheck

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Configurable, Contextualizable
    public class IllegalImportCheck
extends AbstractCheck

    Checks for imports from a set of illegal packages.

    Note: By default, the check rejects all sun.* packages since programs that contain direct calls to the sun.* packages are "not guaranteed to work on all Java-compatible platforms". To reject other packages, set property illegalPkgs to a list of the illegal packages.

    • Property illegalClasses - Specify class names to reject, if regexp property is not set, checks if import equals class name. If regexp property is set, then list of class names will be interpreted as regular expressions. Note, all properties for match will be used. Type is java.lang.String[]. Default value is "".
    • Property illegalPkgs - Specify packages to reject, if regexp property is not set, checks if import is the part of package. If regexp property is set, then list of packages will be interpreted as regular expressions. Note, all properties for match will be used. Type is java.lang.String[]. Default value is sun.
    • Property regexp - Control whether the illegalPkgs and illegalClasses should be interpreted as regular expressions. Type is boolean. Default value is false.
