Hi Nagesh, The basic approach here looks good. Initially, I would suggest creating a new build file as you did and import the existing build file to pick up any common configuration entries. This is the approach taken with findbugs.xml, for example. Using this approach, entries that are specific to pmd would be kept in the pmdbuild.xml file. After we've gotten some experience using pmd on the project then we could consider whether we would gain by including it in the primary build file. As a note, in an earlier thread, it was suggested that a tool called CheckStyle be used to help enforce coding standards for Mifos. My understanding is that pmd is an alternative to using CheckStyle, is that correct? Cheers, --Van

Hi! Guys, I have added a build file named "pmdbuild.xml" which will generate the PMD reports for the java files. At present there is no reference to this pmdbuild.xml from build.xml, we are going to add the reference ASAP in build.xml. Please any one of you review the document and let us know if we need to add or modify any contents in it. Thanks in advance...
