Configure Checkstyle

  You can configure checkstyle by creating/importing your Checkstyle Check Configuration in Eclipse
  and then in your pom specify:
  
  * additionalBuildcommands
  
  * additionalProjectnatures
  
  * additionalConfig to create the .checkstyle file.
  
  []
  
  See the example below, make sure you specify the correct value in <<<check-config-name>>>.
