Hi guys! Firstly, thank you for all your efforts over the years with Checkstyle -- I've gotten a lot of use out of it, both personally and at work :)
Secondly, I'd like to report what looks like a bug. When upgrading from Checkstyle 5.6 to 6.16.1, I noticed a bunch of new ParenPad warnings. They were triggered by things like this:
E:\Users\Wade\Downloads\Checkstyle bug report>javac Test.java
E:\Users\Wade\Downloads\Checkstyle bug report>cat Test.java
package test;
public class Test {
static void main( String [] args ) {
String s = "test";
Object o = s;
((String)o).length();
}
}
E:\Users\Wade\Downloads\Checkstyle bug report>cat config.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE module PUBLIC "-//Puppy Crawl//DTD Check Configuration 1.3//EN" "http://www.puppycrawl.com/dtds/configuration_1_3.dtd">

Starting audit...
[WARN] E:\Users\Wade\Downloads\Checkstyle bug report\Test.java:7:10: '(' is not followed by whitespace. [ParenPad]
[WARN] E:\Users\Wade\Downloads\Checkstyle bug report\Test.java:7:19: ')' is not preceded with whitespace. [ParenPad]
Audit done.
Here's the additional data you wanted. The expected output is no warnings. The actual output incorrectly shows the parens around "(String)o" to be a METHOD_CALL.
It seems like Checkstyle now thinks the parens around (Wavefront)oElement are a method call instead of just an expression. If I remove METHOD_CALL from the ParenPad configuration, the warning goes away. Or if I put spaces inside like this
( (Wavefront)oElement ).getType()
the warning also goes away. Sorry, but I don't know exactly which version of Checkstyle this change occurred in, since I hadn't upgraded for a while.
Please let me know if you need any additional information, and thanks again!
