Annotation Types Summary

Annotation Type	Description
FileStatefulCheck	This annotation means that the check contains file-related context and therefore cannot be used from the others threads at the same time.
GlobalStatefulCheck	This annotation means that the check contains global context, which will be updated while Checkstyle processes files.
StatelessCheck	This annotation means that the check does not contain mutable state and may be safely used from others threads at the same time.
