[m2]maven-pmd-plugin - custom ruleset support classes
We have custom rulesets written in our company. The HOWTO in the plugin page
says how to specify the rulesets in the pom.xml:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-pmd-plugin/howto.html
But our ruleset XML files refer to custom written classes, which are
packaged in a separate Jar. How to specify this Jar in the classpath while
running PMD plugin?

Install the custom ruleset jar file in the local Maven repo and add it as a
project dependency. Your custom classes are then on the classpath, and PMD
runs successfully with your custom ruleset.

Thanks Wayne for the advice. I will try this out and let u know.
One of the other round-abouts I tried: I tried to write a plugin extending
maven-pmd-plugin, having our PMD extension as a dependency. But this threw
some odd exception (i don't have trace as I am writing this from home).
Maintaining this instead of a fork would have been easier. But for the time
being I will decide to go about maintaining a fork.
Thanks once again.
Regards,
Subhash.

Oh I didn't understand the question the first time! Went back and now
I understand better... Ignore my first response completely. ;-)
I would just add the jar file as follows:
<plugin>
maven-pmd-plugin
etc
<dependencies>
<dependency>
your jar here
</dep>
</deps>
</plugin>
However... I think right now, the maven-pmd-plugin does not support
custom rulesets, so either way you're going to need to run an
internal/private version for a while until the next release is pushed
out that supports custom XML rulesets.

Personally, I think you should Maven2-ize the other project, and run
PMD directly on it, instead of doing this convoluted thing...
---- quote end ----
Well, even if I mavenize our plugin-extension project, where will I add the
dependency? The only logical place I can believe is PMD plugin's dependency
section. This would mean we, in our company maintaining a fork version of
PMD plugin, which we want to avoid.

Perhaps need to use assembly plugin to unzip the the Jar and then let
PMD run on the classes directly?
(Personally, I think you should Maven2-ize the other project, and run
PMD directly on it, instead of doing this convoluted thing...)
