Re: checkstyle4nb produeces ClassCastExcpetion

Hi Tom,

I'm not familiar with Netbeans, but in Eclipse you don't have to mess
around with jar files at all to use the checkstyle plugin. You
download and install the plugin as a whole. Internally the plugin
contains jars of course, but the user does not have to think about
them at all.

The nbcheckstyle installation instructions [1] suggest that a similar
system exists in Netbeans. A plugin is contained in an nbm file, which
in turn contains all required jars. You install the nbm via the Update
Center GUI, not by adding jars to the netbeans command line.

Did you follow the installation instructions of the nbcheckstyle
plugin? Why do you have to deal with individual checkstyle
implementation jars, and not the nbm file?

If this is not pointing you in the right direction, it might be easier
for others to help you if you could tell them which versions of
Netbeans and the nbcheckstyle plugin you are using.

Cheers,
Lars
