Local variable naming convention
Reports local variables whose names are too short, too long, or do not follow the specified regular expression pattern.
Example: int X = 42;
should be reported if the inspection is enabled with the default settings in which a variable name should start with a lowercase letter.
Configure the inspection:
Use the fields in the Options section to specify the minimum length, maximum length, and a regular expression expected for local variable names. Specify 0 in order not to check the length of names. Regular expressions should be specified in the standard java.util.regex format.
Use checkboxes to ignore for
-loop and catch
section parameters.
