Configurable naming conventions for local variable declarations and other locally-scoped variables. This rule reports variable declarations which do not match the regex that applies to their specific kind (e.g. final variable, or catch-clause parameter). Each regex can be configured through properties. By default this rule uses the standard Java naming convention (Camel case).

Reports classes that may be made final because they cannot be extended from outside their compilation unit anyway. This is because all their constructors are private, so a subclass could not call the super constructor.

Configurable naming conventions for method declarations. This rule reports method declarations which do not match the regex that applies to their specific kind (e.g. JUnit test or native method).

Enforce a policy for braces on control statements. It is recommended to use braces on 'if ... else' statements and loop statements, even if they are optional. This usually makes the code clearer, and helps prepare the future when you need to add another statement. That said, this rule lets you control which statements are required to have braces via properties. From 6.2.0 on, this rule supersedes WhileLoopMustUseBraces, ForLoopMustUseBraces, IfStmtMustUseBraces, and IfElseStmtMustUseBraces.

Fields in interfaces and annotations are automatically `public static final`, and methods are `public abstract`. Classes, interfaces or annotations nested in an interface or annotation are automatically `public static` (all nested interfaces and annotations are automatically static). Nested enums are automatically `static`. For historical reasons, modifiers which are implied by the context are accepted by the compiler, but are superfluous.
