------------------------------------------------
Summary: Cannot parse "super.<SomeType> someMethod()" syntax
Key: MPMD-139
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPMD-139
Project: Maven 2.x PMD Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Components: PMD
Affects Versions: 2.6
Environment: $ mvn --version
Apache Maven 3.0.3 (r1075438; 2011-02-28 18:31:09+0100)
Maven home: xxx\apache-maven-3.0.3
Java version: 1.6.0_17, vendor: Sun Microsystems Inc.
Java home: xxx\jdk1.6.0_17\jre
Default locale: de_CH, platform encoding: Cp1252
OS name: "windows xp", version: "5.1", arch: "x86", family: "windows"
PMD plugin configuration:
<artifactId>maven-pmd-plugin</artifactId>

The description has been anonymized, but AFAIK, all important details remain.
:-)
On the following code:
Line 155: return super.<SomeClass> someMethod(someArgument);
PMD reports the following problem:
[WARNING] Error while parsing xxx\MyClass.java: Encountered " "<" "< "" at line
155, column 22.
Was expecting:
<IDENTIFIER> ...
I tried the following:
1) Updated PMD maven plugin to 2.6 (I was using 2.5)
2) Verified that the targetJdk setting is taking effect (I get an error when
setting it to "xxx")
3) I set the source encoding to UTF-8 (My default is Cp1252)
4) When changing line 155 to "return (Iterable<SomeClass>)
super.someMethod(someArgument);", no error is reported
So it seems that Java 5 mode is enabled, but the particular syntax of
parameterizing the method call on invocation is not supported.
This is valid syntax, the code is running in production.
