Shared coding conventions make it possible for a team to collaborate efficiently.

This rule makes it mandatory to place closing curly braces on the same line as the next ``++else++``, ``++catch++`` or ``++finally++`` keywords.


== Noncompliant Code Example

----
public void myMethod() {
  if(something) {
    executeTask();
  } else if (somethingElse) {
    doSomethingElse();
  }
  else {                               // Noncompliant
     generateError();
  }

  try {
    generateOrder();
  } catch (Exception e) {
    log(e);
  }
  finally {                            // Noncompliant
    closeConnection();
  }
}
