[jira] [Created] (MPMD-221) Support all languages that PMD supports

Andreas Dangel created MPMD-221:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Support all languages that PMD supports
                 Key: MPMD-221
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPMD-221
             Project: Maven PMD Plugin
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: CPD, PMD
    Affects Versions: 3.6
            Reporter: Andreas Dangel


PMD supports now many different languages besides Java, JavaScript, JSP.
There are XML, XSL and also some rules for Maven POM files :)

CPD supports even more languages, like C, C++, C#, PHP, Swift, ...

Currently, maven-pmd-plugin only supports java, javascript, jsp: http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-pmd-plugin/pmd-mojo.html#language
and http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-pmd-plugin/cpd-mojo.html#language

In theory, PMD can determine the language type on its own by using the file extensions. Ideally, the maven-pmd-plugin would not restrict the possible languages.
