[Chris M. <cm...@gm...>]

The *CodeNarc Team *is proud to announce the release of version *0.22*.

CodeNarc <http://codenarc.sourceforge.net/> is a static analysis tool for
Groovy source code. Version *0.22* adds 4 new rules (bringing the total to
341 rules) , a new IDE (Eclipse/Idea) text report type, and several bug
fixes and enhancements.

*New Rules:*

   - *PackageMatchesFilePath *rule (naming) - The source file path for a
   class should match the package hierarchy.
   - *Instanceof *rule (design) - Checks for use of the *instanceof *
   operator.
   - *UnnecessarySafeNavigationOperator *rule (unnecessary) - Check
for the *safe
   navigation operator *(?.) applied to constants and literals, which can
   never be null.
   - *NoDef *rule (convention) - Check for all uses of the *def* keyword.

The new *IdeTextReportWriter* is a text report formatter that includes
automatic IDE (Eclipse/Idea) hyperlinks to source code.
