Violations plugin fails on checkstyle Translation missing check

[glance-]

Checkstyle can run a Translation check, and verify that certain translation property files exists.

When one is missing checkstyle outputs:

[ERROR] src/main/resources:[0] (misc) Translation: Properties file 'xx-messages.properties' is missing.

and the corresponding xml looks like:

<file name="/xx/trunk/src/main/resources">
<error line="0" severity="error" message="Properties file &apos;xx-messages.properties&apos; is missing." source="com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.checks.TranslationCheck"/>
</file>

Then the violations plugin tries to read the directory "/xx/trunk/src/main/resources" as a file, and craps out:

WARNING: Publisher 'Report Violations' aborted due to exception:
java.io.IOException: remote file operation failed: /xx at hudson.remoting.Channel@34353fca:xx-03: java.io.FileNotFoundException: /xx/src/test/resources (Is a directory)
