@SuppressWarnings doesn't work on import statement?

[acm...@gmail.com]

I use the following test environments, but got CheckStyle exception on "Unexpected token: import"

May I do something wrong? 

It works on other java statements but import, is it a limitation or not support or forbidden usage?

@SuppressWarnings("checkstyle:avoidstartimport")

import android.*;

config.xml

<module name="Checker">

    <module name="TreeWalker">

        <module name="SuppressWarningsHolder">

    </module>

    <module name="SuppressWarningsFilter">

</module>

java -jar checkstyle-5.7-all.jar -c config.xml -f xml -o output.xml -r src

Thanks a lot

Although it does filter out AvoidStarImport, but if I change "checkstyle:avoidstartimport" to "typo", it still filter out AvoidStarImport

I think this is a bug

@SuppressWarnings("typo")

import android.*;

Hi,

http://checkstyle.sourceforge.net/config_annotation.html#SuppressWarnings

import is not a token that this Check support:

CLASS_DEF,INTERFACE_DEF,ENUM_DEF,

ANNOTATION_DEF,ANNOTATION_FIELD_DEF,

ENUM_CONSTANT_DEF,METHOD_DEF,CTOR_DEF

Most likely imports are minimal priority of interest for Checkstyle, splitting imports order by annotations is weird to my mind.

Trailing comment for on IMPORTs is also strange as imports are managed by IDE mostly - so comment always removed.

If you need to put suppress on import .... I would recommend you to use SuppressWithNearbyCommentFilter

or the best solution to my mind is SuppressionFilter.

thanks,
