Andreas Dangel commented on MPMD-303:

Looking at the code on GitHub I see the repo contains only the default ruleset.

Yes, that's the ruleset, that the maven-pmd-plugin provides and uses as default, if no other rulesets are configured.
This means, that your configuration is not applied.

Looking at your poc code, I can see, that the configuration is applied when running {{mvn site}} - and the rulesets are correctly extracted:

{code}
$ ls target/pmd/rulesets/
bestpractices.xml  codestyle.xml  design.xml  documentation.xml  errorprone.xml  multithreading.xml  performance.xml  security.xml
{code}

These rulesets are provided by PMD itself -> https://pmd.github.io/latest/pmd_rules_java.html

Only when you run {{mvn pmd:pmd}} directly, your configuration is not applied - that's because, in that case, the reporting configuration is not used and you need to configure the m-pmd-p under {{<build>/<plugins>}} as a build plugin in addition to the reporting plugin.

> When I run *_mvn site_* or *_mvn pmd:pmd_* no output is display on the console and the default ruleset is used since only *_target\pmd\rulesets\maven-pmd-plugin-default.xml_* is generated.
> Looking at the code on GitHub I see the repo contains only the default ruleset.
>  
> Moreover the build plugin configuration does not support rulesets which would be a nice to have.
