Description

Interface Summary

NumericPropertyDescriptor<T>	Defines a descriptor type whose instance values are required lie within specified upper and lower limits.
PMD.ProgressMonitor	A callback that would be implemented by IDEs keeping track of PMD's progress as it evaluates a set of files.
PropertyDescriptor<T>	Property value descriptor that defines the use & requirements for setting property values for use within PMD and any associated GUIs.
PropertyDescriptorFactory	A factory to create PropertyDescriptors based on a map of values.
PropertySource	Any entity that manages a list of properties is a PropertySource.
ReportListener	Listener to be informed about found violations.
Rule	This is the basic Rule interface for PMD rules.
RuleViolation	A RuleViolation is created by a Rule when it identifies a violation of the Rule constraints.

Class Summary

AbstractConfiguration	Base configuration class for both PMD and CPD.
AbstractPropertySource	Base class for objects which can be configured through properties.
PMD	This is the main class for interacting with PMD.
PMDConfiguration	This class contains the details for the runtime configuration of PMD.
PropertyDescriptorFields	Field names for parsing the properties out of the ruleset xml files.
Report	A Report collects all informations during a PMD execution.
Report.ProcessingError	Represents a processing error, such as a parse error.
Report.ReadableDuration	Represents a duration.
Report.RuleConfigurationError	Represents a configuration error.
Report.SuppressedViolation	Represents a violation, that has been suppressed.
RuleChain	The RuleChain is a means by which Rules can participate in a uniform visitation of the AST, and not need perform their own independent visitation.
RuleContext	The RuleContext provides access to Rule processing state.
RuleSet	This class represents a collection of rules along with some optional filter patterns that can preclude their application on specific files.
RuleSetFactory	RuleSetFactory is responsible for creating RuleSet instances from XML content.
RuleSetReference	This class represents a reference to RuleSet.
RuleSetReferenceId	This class is used to parse a RuleSet reference value.
RuleSets	Grouping of Rules per Language in a RuleSet.
RulesetsFactoryUtils
RuleSetWriter	This class represents a way to serialize a RuleSet to an XML configuration file.
RuleViolationComparator	Compares RuleViolations using the following criteria: Source file name Begin line Description Begin column End line End column Rule name
SourceCodeProcessor
SynchronizedReportListener	Wraps a report listener in order to synchronize calls to it.

Enum Summary

RulePriority

These are the possible Rule priority values.

Exception Summary

PMDException	A convenience exception wrapper.
RuleSetNotFoundException

Package net.sourceforge.pmd Description

This is the PMD programming mistake detector. In order to use it, create a new instance of PMD and use its PMD.processFiles(net.sourceforge.pmd.PMDConfiguration, net.sourceforge.pmd.RuleSetFactory, java.util.Collection, net.sourceforge.pmd.RuleContext, net.sourceforge.pmd.PMD.ProgressMonitor) method.
