(info "(ccmode)File Styles")

   -- Variable: c-file-style
        Set this variable to a style name string in the Local Variables
       list.  From now on, when you visit the file, CC Mode will
       automatically set the file's style to this one using `c-set-style'.

(The java style is used by default for *.java files, btw.)

The mode is set before processing file local variables, so
`c-style-java' has the old value at this point.

(CC mode uses hack-local-variables-hook to set the style from
c-file-style.)
