Hi all,
I'd like to hear your opinions about [1] / [2]:
Adding support for PMD 7, which is a major version upgrade from PMD
6.55.0, might impact end-users under certain conditions: If they use
custom rulesets and use a rule, which no longer exists or has been
replaced, they need to update their rulesets so that it will be working
with PMD 7. Or if they have written custom rules.
Using PMD 7 however, enables support for Java 21. Upgrading PMD in
m-pm-p would bring this to all users. While m-pmd-p itself didn't change
much (e.g. the maven configs are still valid), the underlying PMD of
course did (and therefore any custom rulesets might need to be updated).
This fact, that there might be changes needed when upgrading, will be
added on the plugin documentation page [3] under "Upgrading notes" (part
of PR 144).
The question is now: Should the next version of m-pmd-p be called 3.22.0
or 4.0.0?
Looking that the PR (which I reviewed) I consider 3.22.0 as totally
fine. All necessary information has been provided to the user.
Michael
