Tested it, looks good. Please have a look at the checkstyle error

Hello @Siedlerchr ,

Thanks for the test. I corrected the checkstyle error.

I just saw the open rewrite error, can you execute ./gradlew rewriteRun and commit your changes?

@Siedlerchr done.

I didn't know that tool. Very interesting, especially for contributions. The lossless semantic tree seems to be a powerful model. Have you seen interesting improvements in the code base since you started to use Open Rewrite ?

It's great for doing migrations or automatic refactoring e.g with more modern Java methods
Does not always work 100%, we had some quirks where it did not work but we reported the bugs and they got fixed.
It depends a bit on the recipes

Going to take a look. For now, it seems quite fresh but I like the approach. At least, automatic migrations can save days of development time, not saying it is a low value added work.

Thanks. Will look soon for another contribution to JabRef.

@alexandre-cremieux There is a whole company doing business with this rewrite. See https://docs.openrewrite.org/ for more information. -- Looking forward to more contributions!
