Disable checkstyle for hashCode and equals

I need example configuration to totally disable check-style for hashCode() and equals() methods.

Solution

  • This is maybe not a direct answer to your question, but Lombok really shines on avoiding this sort of boilerplate code: http://projectlombok.org

    For this case, you can just annotate your classes with:

    @EqualsAndHashCode(of="id")

    or

    @EqualsAndHashCode(excludes={"these","fields","wont","be","compared"})

    Haven't tested it against checkstyle, though...
