How do I get Checkstyle to ignore final method rule on classes marked with the @Entity annotation?

Say I have classes marked with the @Entity annotation

@Entity
class User {

   public String getName(String name) {
      return this.name;
   }

}

Checkstyle will report that the class is not built for extension and suggest marking the methods with final (or the whole class). I can't do this because it's marked as an 开发者_StackOverflow社区entity which can't be final.

How do I get Checkstyle to ignore classes marked with @Entity for this rule?

Thanks

Look at the SuppressionFilter or SuppressionCommentFilter

Filter SuppressionFilter rejects audit events for Check errors according to a suppressions XML document in a file.

The module you want to disable is DesignForExtension. Just remove it from your configuration file.

Are you using Ant build? If so, in your checkstyle target, try something like:

<checkstyle>
    <fileset dir="src.dir">
        <include name="**/*.java" />
        <exclude name="User.java" />
    </fileset>
</checkstyle>
