Class RecordComponentNumberCheck

All Implemented Interfaces:
Configurable, Contextualizable

public class RecordComponentNumberCheck extends AbstractCheck

Checks the number of record components in the header of a record definition.

  • Property max - Specify the maximum number of components allowed in the header of a record definition. Type is int. Default value is 8.
  • Property accessModifiers - Access modifiers of record definitions where the number of record components should be checked. Type is com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.checks.naming.AccessModifierOption[]. Default value is public, protected, package, private.

To configure the check:

 <module name="RecordComponentNumber"/>
 

Java code example:

 public record MyRecord1(int x, int y) { // ok, 2 components
     ...
 }

 record MyRecord2(int x, int y, String str,
                           Node node, Order order, Data data
                           String location, Date date, Image image) { // violation, 9 components
     ...
 }
 

To configure the check to allow 5 record components at all access modifier levels for record definitions:

 <module name="RecordComponentNumber">
   <property name="max" value="5"/>
 </module>
 

Java code example:

 public record MyRecord1(int x, int y, String str) { // ok, 3 components
     ...
 }

 public record MyRecord2(int x, int y, String str,
                           Node node, Order order, Data data) { // violation, 6 components
     ...
 }
 

To configure the check to allow 10 record components for a public record definition, but 3 for private record definitions:

 <module name="RecordComponentNumber">
   <property name="max" value="3"/>
   <property name="accessModifiers" value="private"/>
 </module>
 <module name="RecordComponentNumber">
   <property name="max" value="10"/>
   <property name="accessModifiers" value="public"/>
 </module>
 

Java code example:

 public record MyRecord1(int x, int y, String str) { // ok, public record definition allowed 10
     ...
 }

 private record MyRecord2(int x, int y, String str, Node node) { // violation
     ...                                // private record definition allowed 3 components
 }

    • getDefaultTokens

      public int[] getDefaultTokens()
      Description copied from class: AbstractCheck
      Returns the default token a check is interested in. Only used if the configuration for a check does not define the tokens.

      public int[] getAcceptableTokens()
      Description copied from class: AbstractCheck
      The configurable token set. Used to protect Checks against malicious users who specify an unacceptable token set in the configuration file. The default implementation returns the check's default tokens.
      Specified by:
      getAcceptableTokens in class AbstractCheck
      Returns:
      the token set this check is designed for.
