<!--

  Checkstyle configuration that checks the sun coding conventions from:

    - the Java Language Specification at
      http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/second_edition/html/index.html

    - the Sun Code Conventions at http://java.sun.com/docs/codeconv/

    - the Javadoc guidelines at
      http://java.sun.com/j2se/javadoc/writingdoccomments/index.html

    - the JDK Api documentation http://java.sun.com/j2se/docs/api/index.html

    - some best practices

  Checkstyle is very configurable. Be sure to read the documentation at
  http://checkstyle.sf.net (or in your downloaded distribution).

  Most Checks are configurable, be sure to consult the documentation.

  To completely disable a check, just comment it out or delete it from the file.

  Finally, it is worth reading the documentation.

<!--
   The default severity setting in checkstyle is 'error', so some
   of the rules below are configured to change the severity to
   'warning'.  Over time, these 'warning' settings should be 
   removed as more of the ONOS source code is modified to
   follow the recommended rules.
