/**
 * <p>
 * Checks that local variables that never have their values changed are declared final.
 * The check can be configured to also check that unchanged parameters are declared final.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * When configured to check parameters, the check ignores parameters of interface
 * methods and abstract methods.
 * </p>
 * <ul>
 * <li>
 * Property {@code validateEnhancedForLoopVariable} - Control whether to check
 * <a href="https://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se11/html/jls-14.html#jls-14.14.2">
 * enhanced for-loop</a> variable.
 * Type is {@code boolean}.
 * Default value is {@code false}.
 * </li>
 * <li>
 * Property {@code tokens} - tokens to check
 * Type is {@code java.lang.String[]}.
 * Validation type is {@code tokenSet}.
 * Default value is:
 * <a href="https://checkstyle.org/apidocs/com/puppycrawl/tools/checkstyle/api/TokenTypes.html#VARIABLE_DEF">
 * VARIABLE_DEF</a>.
 * </li>
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * To configure the check:
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * &lt;module name=&quot;FinalLocalVariable&quot;/&gt;
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * To configure the check so that it checks local variables and parameters:
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * &lt;module name=&quot;FinalLocalVariable&quot;&gt;
 *   &lt;property name=&quot;tokens&quot; value=&quot;VARIABLE_DEF,PARAMETER_DEF&quot;/&gt;
 * &lt;/module&gt;
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * By default, this Check skip final validation on
 *  <a href = "https://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se11/html/jls-14.html#jls-14.14.2">
 * Enhanced For-Loop</a>.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Option 'validateEnhancedForLoopVariable' could be used to make Check to validate even variable
 *  from Enhanced For Loop.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * An example of how to configure the check so that it also validates enhanced For Loop Variable is:
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * &lt;module name=&quot;FinalLocalVariable&quot;&gt;
 *   &lt;property name=&quot;tokens&quot; value=&quot;VARIABLE_DEF&quot;/&gt;
 *   &lt;property name=&quot;validateEnhancedForLoopVariable&quot; value=&quot;true&quot;/&gt;
 * &lt;/module&gt;
 * </pre>
 * <p>Example:</p>
 * <pre>
 * for (int number : myNumbers) { // violation
 *   System.out.println(number);
 * }
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * An example of how to configure check on local variables and parameters
 * but do not validate loop variables:
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * &lt;module name=&quot;FinalLocalVariable&quot;&gt;
 *    &lt;property name=&quot;tokens&quot; value=&quot;VARIABLE_DEF,PARAMETER_DEF&quot;/&gt;
 *    &lt;property name=&quot;validateEnhancedForLoopVariable&quot; value=&quot;false&quot;/&gt;
 *  &lt;/module&gt;
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * Example:
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * public class MyClass {
 *   static int foo(int x, int y) { //violations, parameters should be final
 *     return x+y;
 *   }
 *   public static void main (String []args) { //violation, parameters should be final
 *     for (String i : args) {
 *       System.out.println(i);
 *     }
 *     int result=foo(1,2); // violation
 *   }
 * }
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * Parent is {@code com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.TreeWalker}
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Violation Message Keys:
 * </p>
 * <ul>
 * <li>
 * {@code final.variable}
 * </li>
 * </ul>
