magic numbers - Java's checkstyle, MagicNumberCheck -

i using checkstyle reportings source-code. question magicnumbercheck.

i using date/(org.joda.)datetime in source code this:

datetime datetime = new datetime(2013, 2, 27, 23, 0): datetime.plushours(57); 

is there way suppress magicnumbercheck notifications if magic number within date or datetime?

you can use suppressioncommentfilter check this.

configure properties values (in checkstyle configuration file)

<module name="suppressioncommentfilter">   <property name="offcommentformat" value="check\:off\: ([\w\|]+)"/>   <property name="oncommentformat" value="check\:on\: ([\w\|]+)"/>   <property name="checkformat" value="$1"/> </module> 

now required lines, can like

//check:off: magicnumber datetime datetime = new datetime(2013, 2, 27, 23, 0): datetime.plushours(57); //check:on: magicnumber 

this suppress magicnumber checks, rest checks work here.

you can suppress multiple checcks too, like

//check:off: magicnumber|indentation code here //check:on: magicnumber|indentation 

this suppress magicnumber , indentation checks. other checks work fine.
