+ * As such, it is not a standard unit, regression or functional test, and will
+ * automatically skip if the langtools source code is not available.
+ *
+ * If the source code is available, it will find and compile the coding
+ * style analyzers found in langtools/make/tools/crules/*.java, and run the resulting
+ * code on all source files under langtools/src/share/classes. Any coding style
+ * violations will cause the test to fail.
