Is there a way to prohibit usage of var keyword

[ChristianGmw]

Hello, thanks for this amazing library!

In our project we have the rule that types should be explicit, so no usage of the Java 10 "var" keyword.

Is there a way to enforce this with ArchUnit?

As ArchUnit (currently) only analyzes byte code, it cannot distinguish between var and an explicit type declaration, as the compiler creates the same class file regardless of whether the type was expclitly declared or inferred.

Ah ok that makes sense! Then some sonar rule must do for now. ;-)

Thank you very much @hankem for the amazingly fast reply!
