Class MethodParamPadCheck

All Implemented Interfaces:
Configurable, Contextualizable

public class MethodParamPadCheck extends AbstractCheck
Checks the padding between the identifier of a method definition, constructor definition, method call, constructor invocation, record, or record pattern; and the left parenthesis of the parameter list. That is, if the identifier and left parenthesis are on the same line, checks whether a space is required immediately after the identifier or such a space is forbidden. If they are not on the same line, reports a violation, unless configured to allow line breaks. To allow linebreaks after the identifier, set property allowLineBreaks to true.
