Checkstyle and Velocity Logging

[Takaisan]

Hello,

When running Checkstyle i get spammed by verbose velocity log messages. Is there a way to turn this off?

There's a couple of older threads discussing this - but no solution.

Thanks for any help!

Cheers!

Can you supply more information. Which checkstyle-plugin version do you
use? Provide a sample output of the "spamming".

Hello,

my checkstyle version is 2.1. I had a look at the fixes for 2.2 but i couldn't find anything that looked like it had something to do with my problem.

The verbose output is spam insofar as it has nothing to do with the task at hand, namely checking the validity of the source format. It also makes for a bad user experience since it clutters up the log and tends to hide the important stuff.

The output in question looks like this:
