Importing checkstyle suppressions for IntelliJ code style

Question

Mostly just out of curiosity, but if you are using a checkstyle configuration file checkstyle.xml and a (separate) suppression file checkstyle-suppressions.xml with the maven-checkstyle-plugin on a maven project, and you'd like to import those checkstyle configurations into a code style in IntelliJ by using the CheckStyle-IDEA plugin, you can do so (see, for example, IntelliJ IDEA code format from checkstyle configuration) - but what about the suppressions for this code style? In setting your code style in IntelliJ, you can only import configurations from one file (certainly the checkstyle.xml). Does this code style then 'know' about the suppressions if they are specified correctly in your pom.xml using, say, the <suppressionsLocation> tag? Does it need to know about the suppressions?

Hi! Not sure that it's supported. You may ask the plugin developers though: plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/1065-checkstyle-idea – Peary
