Inspection | Description | Default Severity |
---|---|---|
Deprecated property | Reports EditorConfig properties that are no longer supported. | |
Duplicate character class letter | Reports wildcard patterns in the EditorConfig section that contain a duplicate character in the character class, for example | |
Duplicate or redundant pattern | Reports file patterns that are redundant as there already are other patterns that define the same scope of files or even a broader one. For example, in | |
EditorConfig section is not unique | Reports sections that define the same file pattern as other sections. | |
Empty header | Reports sections with an empty header. Section header must contain file path globs in the format similar to one supported by | |
Empty section | Reports sections that do not contain any EditorConfig properties. | |
Extra top-level declaration | Reports multiple top-level declarations. There can be only one optional “root=true” top-level declaration in the EditorConfig file. Using multiple top-level declarations is not allowed. | |
File encoding doesn't match EditorConfig charset | Checks that current file encoding matches the encoding defined in "charset" property of .editorconfig file. | |
Invalid property value | Reports property values that do not meet value restrictions. For example, some properties may be only “true” or “false”, others contain only integer numbers etc. If a value has a limited set of variants, use code completion to see all of them. | |
Invalid reference | Reports identifiers that are either unknown or have a wrong type. | |
No matching files | Reports sections with wildcard patterns that do not match any files under the directory in which the | |
Non-unique list value | Reports duplicates in lists of values. | |
Overlapping sections | Reports subsets of files specified in the current section that overlap with other subsets in other sections. For example: | |
Overridden property | Reports properties that are already defined in other sections. For example:
[*.java]
indent_size=4
[{*.java,*.js}]
indent_size=2
The second section includes all | |
Overriding property | Reports properties that override the same properties defined earlier in the file. For example:
[*.java]
indent_size=4
[{*.java,*.js}]
indent_size=2
The second section includes the same files as | |
Redundant property | Reports properties that are redundant when another applicable section already contains the same property and value. For example:
[*]
indent_size=4
[*.java]
indent_size=4
are both applicable to | |
Redundant wildcard | Reports wildcards that become redundant when the “**” wildcard is used in the same section. The “**” wildcard defines a broader set of files than any other wildcard. That is why, any other wildcard used in the same section has no affect and can be removed. | |
Required declarations are missing | Reports properties that miss the required declarations. Refer to the documentation for more information. | |
Space in file pattern | Reports space characters in wildcard patterns that affect pattern matching. If these characters are not intentional, they should be removed. | |
Too many wildcards | Reports sections that contain too many wildcards. Using a lot of wildcards may lead to performance issues. | |
Unexpected comma | Reports commas that cannot be used in the current context. Commas are allowed only as separators for values in lists. | |
Unexpected key-value pair | Reports key-value pairs that are not allowed in the current context. | |
Unexpected top-level declaration | Reports unexpected top-level declarations. Top-level declarations other than “root=true” are not allowed in the EditorConfig file. | |
Unexpected value list | Reports lists of values that are used in properties in which lists are not supported. In this case, only a single value can be specified. | |
Unknown property | Reports properties that are not supported by the IDE. Note: some “ij” domain properties may require specific language plugins. | |
Unnecessary braces | Reports pattern lists that are either empty | |
Unnecessary character class | Reports character classes that consist of a single character. Such classes can be simplified to a character, for example | |
Unused declaration | Reports unused declarations. Such declarations can be removed. |
