IntelliJ IDEA code format from checkstyle configuration

finally there is something:

checkstyle-IDEA since 4.24.0 features import of checkstyle config.

A solution is available now:

  1. Please install CheckStyle-IDEA plugin (http://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/1065?pr=idea), it can be found via plug-in repository (Settings|Plugins|Browse repositories).

  2. Go to Settings|Editor|Code Style, choose a code style you want to import CheckStyle configuration to.

  3. Click Manage…|Import.., choose “CheckStyle Configuration” and select a corresponding CheckStyle configuration file. Click OK.

At the end you will see a message “CheckStyle configuration settings were imported to … scheme”.
