Class FileLengthCheck

All Implemented Interfaces:
Configurable, Contextualizable, FileSetCheck

public class FileLengthCheck extends AbstractFileSetCheck
Checks for long source files.

Rationale: If a source file becomes very long it is hard to understand. Therefore, long classes should usually be refactored into several individual classes that focus on a specific task.
