Checkstyle's project site
Description
Hello!
We use maven-linkcheck-plugin to generate reports for checkstyle's sourceforge site: http://checkstyle.sourceforge.net/ .
Nevertheless, it would be great, if linkcheck could have check goal and 'haltOnFailure' option to fail the build when 'bad' link would be found.
For example, such maven plugins as pmd, findbugs, cobertura and jacoco have check goals and 'haltOnFailure' option which allows to halt the build if any of the checks fail during execution of check goal. maven-javadoc-plugin also has 'failOnError' flag which specifies if the build will fail if there are errors during javadoc execution or not.
In addition to this, that goal would be very useful during CI to check commits automatically.
So, would you be so kind as to implement such feature?
