Description

Please make sure your issue is not addressed in the [FAQ](https://fbinfer.com/docs/support#troubleshooting).

I'm not sure if it appropriate to ask here, let me know if I was wrong.

I've read other issue such as [How to create a simple Intraprocedural Checker with Infer.AI #1225](https://github.com/facebook/infer/issues/1225), and it mentioned that there's a adding checker tutorial

https://fbinfer.com/docs/adding-checkers.html

However, it seems that this link could not reach any more.

On the other part of the official site, there's a so called [Infer : AL](https://fbinfer.com/docs/linters) , it seems that we could write our linter for some languages:

> For C/C++ and Objective-C languages, we provide a linters framework.

I was wondering if maybe we could do kind of that for Java? For example, if we detect some specific string pattern, we should got warning in fbinfer's message.
