??-?????-2023 - 7.0.0-SNAPSHOT

We’re excited to bring you the next major version of PMD!

Since this is a big release, we provide here only a concise version of the release notes. We prepared a separate page with the full Detailed Release Notes for PMD 7.0.0.

ℹ️ Release Candidates

PMD 7.0.0 is finally almost ready. In order to gather feedback, we are going to ship a couple of release candidates. These are officially available on GitHub and Maven Central and can be used as usual (e.g. as a dependency). We encourage you to try out the new features, but keep in mind that we may introduce API breaking changes between the release candidates. It should be stable enough if you don't use custom rules.

We have still some tasks planned for the next release candidates. You can see the progress in PMD 7 Tracking Issue #3898.

If you find any problem or difficulty while updating from PMD 6, please provide feedback via our issue tracker. That way we can improve the experience for all.

Changes since 7.0.0-rc4

This section lists the most important changes from the last release candidate. The remaining section describes the complete release notes for 7.0.0.

New and Noteworthy

Maven PMD Plugin compatibility with PMD 7

In order to use PMD 7 with maven-pmd-plugin a new compatibility module has been created. This allows to use PMD 7 by simply adding one additional dependency:

  1. Follow the guide Upgrading PMD at Runtime
  2. Add additionally the following dependency:
<dependency>
  <groupId>net.sourceforge.pmd</groupId>
  <artifactId>pmd-compat6</artifactId>
  <version>${pmdVersion}</version>
</dependency>

It is important to add this dependency as the first in the list, so that maven-pmd-plugin sees the (old) compatible versions of some classes.

This module is available beginning with version 7.0.0-rc4 and will be there at least for the first final version PMD 7 (7.0.0). It’s not decided yet, whether we will keep updating it, after PMD 7 is finally released.

Note: This compatibility module only works for the built-in rules, that are still available in PMD 7. E.g. you need to review your rulesets and look out for deprecated rules and such. See the use case I’m using only built-in rules in the Migration Guide for PMD 7.

As PMD 7 revamped the Java module, if you have custom rules, you need to migrate these rules. See the use case I’m using custom rules in the Migration Guide.

Swift Support
  • limited support for Swift 5.9 (Macro Expansions)
Groovy Support (CPD)
  • We now support parsing all Groovy features from Groovy 3 and 4.
  • We now support suppression through CPD-ON/CPD-OFF comment pairs.
  • See PR #4726 for details.
Updated PMD Designer

This PMD release ships a new version of the pmd-designer. For the changes, see

API Changes

New API

The API around TreeRenderer has been declared as stable. It was previously experimental. It can be used via the CLI subcommand ast-dump or programmatically, as described on Creating XML dump of the AST.

General AST Changes to avoid @Image

See General AST Changes to avoid @Image in the migration guide for details.

XPath Rules

  • The property version was already deprecated and has finally been removed. Please don’t define the version property anymore in your custom XPath rules. By default, the latest XPath version will be used, which is XPath 3.1.

Moved classes/consolidated packages

Internalized classes

These were marked as @InternalApi previously.

  • pmd-core
    • RuleFactory: moved from net.sourceforge.pmd.rules into subpackage lang.rule. It has now been hidden completely from public API.
    • Many types have been moved from the base package net.sourceforge.pmd into subpackage lang.rule.internal.
      • RuleSetReference
      • RuleSetReferenceId
      • RuleSets

Removed classes and methods (previously deprecated)

The following previously deprecated classes have been removed:

  • pmd-apex
    • ApexNode and ASTApexFile

      • #getApexVersion(): In PMD 6, this method has been deprecated but was defined in the class ApexRootNode. The version returned is always “Version.CURRENT”, as the apex compiler integration doesn’t use additional information which Apex version actually is used. Therefore, this method can’t be used to determine the Apex version of the project that is being analyzed.

        If the current version is needed, then Node.getTextDocument().getLanguageVersion() can be used. This is the version that has been selected via CLI --use-version parameter.

Removed classes, interfaces and methods (not previously deprecated)

  • pmd-java
    • The interface FinalizableNode (introduced in 7.0.0-rc1) has been removed. Its method isFinal() has been moved down to the nodes where needed, e.g. ASTLocalVariableDeclaration#isFinal.
    • The method isPackagePrivate() in ASTClassDeclaration (formerly ASTClassOrInterfaceDeclaration) has been removed. Use hasVisibility instead, which can correctly differentiate between local and package private classes.

Renamed classes, interfaces

  • pmd-java
    • The interface AccessNode has been renamed to ModifierOwner. This is only relevant for Java rules, which use that type directly e.g. through downcasting. Or when using the XPath function pmd-java:nodeIs().
    • The node ASTClassOrInterfaceType has been renamed to ASTClassType. XPath rules need to be adjusted.
    • The node ASTClassOrInterfaceDeclaration has been renamed to ASTClassDeclaration. XPath rules need to be adjusted.
    • The interface ASTAnyTypeDeclaration has been renamed to ASTTypeDeclaration. This is only relevant for Java rules, which use that type directly, e.g. through downcasting. Or when using the XPath function pmd-java:nodeIs().
    • The interface ASTMethodOrConstructorDeclaration has been renamed to ASTExecutableDeclaration. This is only relevant for Java rules, which sue that type directly, e.g. through downcasting. Or when using the XPath function pmd-java:nodeIs().
    • The node ASTVariableDeclaratorId has been renamed to ASTVariableId. XPath rules need to be adjusted.
    • The node ASTClassOrInterfaceBody has been renamed to ASTClassBody. XPath rules need to be adjusted.

Renamed classes and methods

Removed functionality

  • The CLI parameter --no-ruleset-compatibility has been removed. It was only used to allow loading some rulesets originally written for PMD 5 also in PMD 6 without fixing the rulesets.
  • The class RuleSetFactoryCompatibility has been removed without replacement. The different ways to enable/disable this filter in PMDConfiguration (Property “RuleSetFactoryCompatibilityEnabled”) and PMDTask (Property “noRuleSetCompatibility”) have been removed as well.
  • textcolor renderer (TextColorRenderer) now renders always in color. The property color has been removed. The possibility to override this with the system property pmd.color has been removed as well. If you don’t want colors, use text renderer (TextRenderer).

Contributors: Wener (@wener-tiobe)

New: Java 21 Support

This release of PMD brings support for Java 21. There are the following new standard language features, that are supported now:

PMD also supports the following preview language features:

In order to analyze a project with PMD that uses these language features, you’ll need to enable it via the environment variable PMD_JAVA_OPTS and select the new language version 21-preview:

export PMD_JAVA_OPTS=--enable-preview
pmd check --use-version java-21-preview ...

Note: Support for Java 19 preview language features have been removed. The version “19-preview” is no longer available.

Changed: JavaScript support

  • latest version supports ES6 and also some new constructs (see Rhino])
  • comments are retained

Changed: Language versions

  • more predefined language versions for each supported language
  • can be used to limit rule execution for specific versions only with minimumLanguageVersion and maximumLanguageVersion attributes.

Changed: CPP can now ignore identifiers in sequences (CPD)

  • new command line option for CPD: --ignore-sequences.
  • This option is used for CPP only: with the already existing option --ignore-literal-sequences, only literals were ignored. The new option additional ignores identifiers as well in sequences.
  • See PR #4470 for details.

Changed: Apex Jorje Updated

With the new version of Apex Jorje, the new language constructs like User Mode Database Operations can be parsed now. PMD should now be able to parse Apex code up to version 59.0 (Winter ‘23).

Changed: Groovy Support (CPD)

  • We now support parsing all Groovy features from Groovy 3 and 4.
  • We now support suppression through CPD-ON/CPD-OFF comment pairs.
  • See PR #4726 for details.

Changed: Rule properties

  • The old deprecated classes like IntProperty and StringProperty have been removed. Please use PropertyFactory to create properties.
  • All properties which accept multiple values now use a comma (,) as a delimiter. The previous default was a pipe character (|). The delimiter is not configurable anymore. If needed, the comma can be escaped with a backslash.
  • The min and max attributes in property definitions in the XML are now optional and can appear separately or be omitted.

🌟 New and changed rules

New Rules

Apex

Java

  • UnnecessaryBoxing reports boxing and unboxing conversions that may be made implicit.
  • UseExplicitTypes reports usages of var keyword, which was introduced with Java 10.

Kotlin

Swift

XML

Changed Rules

General changes

Apex General changes

  • The properties cc_categories, cc_remediation_points_multiplier, cc_block_highlighting have been removed from all rules. These properties have been deprecated since PMD 6.13.0. See issue #1648 for more details.

Java General changes

  • Violations reported on methods or classes previously reported the line range of the entire method or class. With PMD 7.0.0, the reported location is now just the identifier of the method or class. This affects various rules, e.g. CognitiveComplexity.

    The report location is controlled by the overrides of the method getReportLocation in different node types.

    See issue #4439 and issue #730 for more details.

Java Best Practices

  • ArrayIsStoredDirectly: Violations are now reported on the assignment and not anymore on the formal parameter. The reported line numbers will probably move.
  • AvoidReassigningLoopVariables: This rule might not report anymore all reassignments of the control variable in for-loops when the property forReassign is set to skip. See issue #4500 for more details.
  • LooseCoupling: The rule has a new property to allow some types to be coupled to (allowedTypes).
  • UnusedLocalVariable: This rule has some important false-negatives fixed and finds many more cases now. For details see issues #2130, #4516, and #4517.

Java Codestyle

  • MethodNamingConventions: The property checkNativeMethods has been removed. The property was deprecated since PMD 6.3.0. Use the property nativePattern to control whether native methods should be considered or not.
  • ShortVariable: This rule now also reports short enum constant names.
  • UseDiamondOperator: The property java7Compatibility has been removed. The rule now handles Java 7 properly without a property.
  • UnnecessaryFullyQualifiedName: The rule has two new properties, to selectively disable reporting on static field and method qualifiers. The rule also has been improved to be more precise.
  • UselessParentheses: The rule has two new properties which control how strict the rule should be applied. With ignoreClarifying (default: true) parentheses that are strictly speaking not necessary are allowed, if they separate expressions of different precedence. The other property ignoreBalancing (default: true) is similar, in that it allows parentheses that help reading and understanding the expressions.
  • EmptyControlStatement: The rule has a new property to allow empty blocks when they contain a comment (allowCommentedBlocks).

Java Design

  • CyclomaticComplexity: The property reportLevel has been removed. The property was deprecated since PMD 6.0.0. The report level can now be configured separated for classes and methods using classReportLevel and methodReportLevel instead.
  • ImmutableField: The property ignoredAnnotations has been removed. The property was deprecated since PMD 6.52.0.
  • LawOfDemeter: The rule has a new property trustRadius. This defines the maximum degree of trusted data. The default of 1 is the most restrictive.
  • NPathComplexity: The property minimum has been removed. It was deprecated since PMD 6.0.0. Use the property reportLevel instead.
  • SingularField: The properties checkInnerClasses and disallowNotAssignment have been removed. The rule is now more precise and will check these cases properly.
  • UseUtilityClass: The property ignoredAnnotations has been removed.

Java Documentation

  • CommentContent: The properties caseSensitive and disallowedTerms are removed. The new property forbiddenRegex can be used now to define the disallowed terms with a single regular expression.
  • CommentRequired:
    • Overridden methods are now detected even without the @Override annotation. This is relevant for the property methodWithOverrideCommentRequirement. See also pull request #3757.
    • Elements in annotation types are now detected as well. This might lead to an increased number of violations for missing public method comments.
  • CommentSize: When determining the line-length of a comment, the leading comment prefix markers (e.g. * or //) are ignored and don’t add up to the line-length. See also pull request #4369.

Java Error Prone

  • AvoidDuplicateLiterals: The property exceptionfile has been removed. The property was deprecated since PMD 6.10.0. Use the property exceptionList instead.
  • DontImportSun: sun.misc.Signal is not special-cased anymore.
  • EmptyCatchBlock: CloneNotSupportedException and InterruptedException are not special-cased anymore. Rename the exception parameter to ignored to ignore them.
  • ImplicitSwitchFallThrough: Violations are now reported on the case statements rather than on the switch statements. This is more accurate but might result in more violations now.

Removed Rules

Many rules, that were previously deprecated have been finally removed. See Detailed Release Notes for PMD 7 for the complete list.

🚨 API

The API of PMD has been growing over the years and needed some cleanup. The goal is, to have a clear separation between a well-defined API and the implementation, which is internal. This should help us in future development.

Also, there are some improvement and changes in different areas. For the detailed description of the changes listed here, see Detailed Release Notes for PMD 7.

  • Miscellaneous smaller changes and cleanups
  • XPath 3.1 support for XPath-based rules
  • Node stream API for AST traversal
  • Metrics framework
  • Testing framework
  • Language Lifecycle and Language Properties
  • Rule Properties
