29 * File filter {@code BeforeExecutionExclusionFileFilter} decides which files should be
30 * excluded from being processed by the utility.
31 * </div>
32 *
33 * <p>
34 * By default, Checkstyle includes all files and subdirectories in a directory to be processed and
35 * checked for violations. Users could have files that are in these subdirectories that shouldn't
36 * be processed with their checkstyle configuration for various reasons, one of which is a valid
37 * Java file that won't pass Checkstyle's parser. When Checkstyle tries to parse a Java file and
38 * fails, it will throw an {@code Exception} and halt parsing any more files for violations.
39 * An example of a valid Java file Checkstyle can't parse is JDK 9's {@code module-info.java}.
40 * This file filter will exclude these problem files from being parsed, allowing the rest of the
41 * files to run normal and be validated.
42 * </p>
43 *
44 * <p>
45 * <b>Note:</b> When a file is excluded from the utility, it is excluded from all Checks and no
46 * testing for violations will be performed on them.
