Require Encoding

This rule checks files for a required encoding and fails if the guessed encoding doesn't match the required one.

Note that this rule uses icu4j to guess the source encoding of a file. Use of US-ASCII is hard to detect and should not be used as a required encoding.

The following parameters are supported by this rule:

• encoding - Required encoding. Default value ${project.build.sourceEncoding}.
• includes - List of files to include, separated by comma or pipe
• excludes - List of files to exclude, separated by comma or pipe
• useDefaultExcludes - enable SCM file exclusions, enbled by default.
• failFast - Should the rule fail after the first error or should the errors be aggregated. Default true.
• acceptAsciiSubset - a boolean, accept US-ASCII as an subset of UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1/-15, default false.
• acceptIso8859Subset - a boolean, accept ISO-8859-1 as a subset of ISO-8859-15, default false.
