----------------------------------------------------------
It would be nice to re-open this ticket, now that PMD 5.0.1 has been released.
This would solve a version problem that may become quite common when developing
with Java 7 :
If you develop in Eclipse (which is quite common) with Java 7, the only version
of Eclipse PMD plugin supporting Java 7 is PMD plugin 4.0, depending on PMD 5.
But Maven PMD plugin depends on PMD 4.
Key point is that PMD 5.x is not backward compatible with PMD 4.x, and
therefore config files differ from PMD 4 (to allow PMD working with maven) and
PMD 5 (to allow PMD working with Eclipse in Java 7). Maintaining both
configuration files is quite painfull and may lead to inconsistancies.
