Re: Caching checkstyle results; running only broken tests

Thanks for the suggestion. I added the property for cacheFile in TreeWalker 
module. That did not help at all. The first run after the cache configuration 
took 8min and 39 sec. The subsequent run took 8min and 17 sec. After the first 
run, I did see a cache file created. It had filenames and I believe it is a 
timestamp. Any suggestion?

Thanks again!

Hi,

I would recommend that you look into the cacheFile property on the TreeWalker 
module, as described at http://checkstyle.sourceforge.net/config.html.

Is this not what you are looking for?

Regards,
Oliver
