[jira] [Commented] (MPMD-213) The language parameter should not be read-only

["Andreas Dangel (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPMD-213?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15409442#comment-15409442 ] 

Andreas Dangel commented on MPMD-213:
-------------------------------------

Since [r1682450|http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1682450] the language parameter isn't used at all. Instead, if the output file from the `pmd` or `cpd` goal exists, the violations are examined.

There is a language parameter, but this one is for the `pmd`/`cpd` goals - and this one is configurable.

[~dennisl@apache.org] I believe, the language parameter in `AbstractPmdViolationCheckMojo` can be removed completely. What do you think?

> The language parameter in {{AbstractPmdViolationCheckMojo}} should not be read-only. It should be possible to change it in case you have an artifact with a type of sources for which there is no artifact handler, i.e. javascript.
> The IT PMD-205-pmd-js-check shows this. It currently fails under Maven 2.2.1, but works under Maven 3 due to MNG-5001.
