Maven Checkstyle Plugin + latest Checkstyle 6.5-SNAPSHOT lead to build failure.

[Alexey Zuy]

I was trying to generate report for Guava using checkstyle-tester project(link).
I cloned it on my PC and configured for using Checkstyle 6.5-SNAPSHOT, build latest Checkstyle with "git pull origin master && mvn clean install" and then launched checkstyle-tester.
During maven execution following error appeared:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.DefaultLogger.<init>(Ljava/io/OutputStream;Z)V
        at org.apache.maven.plugin.checkstyle.AbstractCheckstyleReport.getConsoleListener(AbstractCheckstyleReport.java:622)
        at org.apache.maven.plugin.checkstyle.CheckstyleReport.createRequest(CheckstyleReport.java:166)
        at org.apache.maven.plugin.checkstyle.AbstractCheckstyleReport.executeReport(AbstractCheckstyleReport.java:471)

        at org.apache.maven.reporting.AbstractMavenReport.generate(AbstractMavenReport.java:255)
        at org.apache.maven.plugins.site.ReportDocumentRenderer.renderDocument(ReportDocumentRenderer.java:219)

Maven stated that buid was successfull but it actually wasnt. Generated report was empty.

As far as I understand, DefaultLogger was not instantiated due to changes in constructor argument list. I looked through latest commits and there was one interesting.
Following commit MAY be connected with this problem:

What do you think ?

Yes , that was a reason, I reverted a commit
