### New and noteworthy
#### Java Type Resolution
As part of Google Summer of Code 2017, [Bendegúz Nagy](https://github.com/WinterGrascph) has been working on completing type resolution for Java.
His progress so far has allowed to properly resolve, in addition to previously supported statements:
- References to `this` and `super`, even when qualified
- References to fields, even when chained (ie: `this.myObject.aField`), and properly handling inheritance / shadowing
Lambda parameter types where these are infered rather than explicit are still not supported. Expect future releases to do so.
#### Metrics Framework
As part of Google Summer of Code 2017, [Clément Fournier](https://github.com/oowekyala) has been working on
a new metrics framework for object-oriented metrics.
The basic groundwork has been done already and with this release, including a first rule based on the
metrics framework as a proof-of-concept: The rule *CyclomaticComplexity*, currently in the temporary
ruleset *java-metrics*, uses the Cyclomatic Complexity metric to find overly complex code.
This rule will eventually replace the existing three *CyclomaticComplexity* rules that are currently
defined in the *java-codesize* ruleset (see also [issue #445](https://github.com/pmd/pmd/issues/445)).
Since this work is still in progress, the metrics API (package `net.sourceforge.pmd.lang.java.oom`)
is not finalized yet and is expected to change.
#### Modified Rules
* The Java rule `UnnecessaryFinalModifier` (ruleset java-unnecessary) now also reports on private methods marked as `final`.
Being private, such methods can't be overriden, and therefore, the final keyword is redundant.
* The Java rule `PreserveStackTrace` (ruleset java-design) has been relaxed to support the builder pattern on thrown exception.
This change may introduce some false positives if using the exception in non-orthodox ways for things other than setting the
root cause of the exception. Contact us if you find any such scenarios.
* The ruleset java-junit now properly detects JUnit5, and rules are being adapted to the changes on it's API.
This support is, however, still incomplete. Let us know of any uses we are still missing on the [issue tracker](https://github.com/pmd/pmd/issues)
* The Java rule `EmptyTryBlock` (ruleset java-empty) now allows empty blocks when using try-with-resources.
* The Java rule `EmptyCatchBlock` (ruleset java-empty) now exposes a new property called `allowExceptionNameRegex`.
This allow to setup a regular expression for names of exceptions you wish to ignore for this rule. For instance,
setting it to `^(ignored|expected)$` would ignore all empty catch blocks where the catched exception is named
either `ignored` or `expected`. The default ignores no exceptions, being backwards compatible.
#### Deprecated Rules
* The three complexity rules `CyclomaticComplexity`, `StdCyclomaticComplexity`, `ModifiedCyclomaticComplexity` (ruleset java-codesize) have been deprecated. They will be eventually replaced
by a new CyclomaticComplexity rule based on the metrics framework. See also [issue #445](https://github.com/pmd/pmd/issues/445).
