[teiid-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (TEIID-3194) Fix tab/spaces in codebase

[Tom Arnold (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIID-3194?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13027533#comment-13027533 ] 

Tom Arnold commented on TEIID-3194:
-----------------------------------

Added PR to configure the Maven checkstyle plugin to report on instances of tab characters in source files. After the codebase is updated, this can be configured to fail the build on new violations.

Something like this can be used to replace every tab with four spaces:
{code}
find . -name '*.java' -exec sed -i 's/\t/    /g' {} \;
{code}

Pre-commit you can do this to verify the effect of the sed command.
{code}
## -w ignores whitespace changes
git diff -w
{code}

> Tabs/spaces are mixed, causing readability issues in the code and some of the build scripts. This is visible on GitHub. For example:
