Violation messages and Example of Usage links do not work.

[Vyom-Yadav]

The hyperlink for violation messages does not work anymore.

This link directs to:

GitHub suggests the correct path i.e. https://github.com/search?q=path%3Asrc%2Fmain%2Fresources%2Fcom%2Fpuppycrawl%2Ftools%2Fcheckstyle%2Fchecks%2Fcoding+path%3A**%2Fmessages*.properties+repo%3Acheckstyle%2Fcheckstyle+%22array.trailing.comma%22&type=code

The same is true for Example_of_Usage section.

Update the hyperlinks of all the checks and make sure they're correct. This can be done for all checks using awk, etc., or in IDE features like find and replace.

The GitHub docs still show it as working but it is not actually working, opened github/docs#24666 for the same.

this works: path:src/main/resources/com/puppycrawl/tools/checkstyle/checks/coding filename:messages*.properties repo:checkstyle/checkstyle 'variable.declaration.usage.distance'

I used single quotes ' instead ".

this link works: https://github.com/search?q=path%3Asrc%2Fmain%2Fresources%2Fcom%2Fpuppycrawl%2Ftools%2Fcheckstyle%2Fchecks%2Fcoding+filename%3Amessages*.properties+repo%3Acheckstyle%2Fcheckstyle+%27variable.declaration.usage.distance%27

we need to update whole xdoc codebase to use single quotes.

This still doesn't work for me.

Single quotes don't work for me, double quotes do, how is it the reverse?

[romani]

try to open it few times, it looks like not stable, but it works periodically.

[Vyom-Yadav]

The only thing working for me consistently is:
path:src/main/resources/com/puppycrawl/tools/checkstyle/checks/coding path:**/messages*.properties repo:checkstyle/checkstyle "variable.declaration.usage.distance"

[romani]

I remember such problems even before, it was unstable , but nothing we can do, it is GitHub, you can open issue on them instead.
