<p>The PMD team is pleased to announce PMD 6.44.0-SNAPSHOT.</p>
<p>This is a minor release.</p>
<h3 id="new-and-noteworthy">New and noteworthy</h3>
<h4 id="new-programmatic-api">New programmatic API</h4>
<p>This release introduces a new programmatic API to replace the inflexible <a href="https://docs.pmd-code.org/apidocs/pmd-core/6.44.0-SNAPSHOT/net/sourceforge/pmd/PMD.html#"><code>PMD</code></a> class.
Programmatic execution of PMD should now be done with a <a href="https://docs.pmd-code.org/apidocs/pmd-core/6.44.0-SNAPSHOT/net/sourceforge/pmd/PMDConfiguration.html#"><code>PMDConfiguration</code></a>
and a <a href="https://docs.pmd-code.org/apidocs/pmd-core/6.44.0-SNAPSHOT/net/sourceforge/pmd/PmdAnalysis.html#"><code>PmdAnalysis</code></a>, for instance:</p>

<p>The <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">PMD</code> class still supports methods related to CLI execution: <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">runPmd</code> and <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">main</code>.
All other members are now deprecated for removal.
The CLI itself remains compatible, if you run PMD via command-line, no action is required on your part.</p>

<p>Together with the <a href="#new-programmatic-api">new programmatic API</a> the interface
<a href="https://docs.pmd-code.org/apidocs/pmd-core/6.44.0-SNAPSHOT/net/sourceforge/pmd/lang/document/TextFile.html#"><code>TextFile</code></a> has been added as <em>experimental</em>. It intends
to replace <a href="https://docs.pmd-code.org/apidocs/pmd-core/6.44.0-SNAPSHOT/net/sourceforge/pmd/util/datasource/DataSource.html#"><code>DataSource</code></a> and <a href="https://docs.pmd-code.org/apidocs/pmd-core/6.44.0-SNAPSHOT/net/sourceforge/pmd/cpd/SourceCode.html#"><code>SourceCode</code></a> in the long term.</p>
<p>This interface will change in PMD 7 to support read/write operations
and other things. You dont need to use it in PMD 6, as <a href="https://docs.pmd-code.org/apidocs/pmd-core/6.44.0-SNAPSHOT/net/sourceforge/pmd/lang/document/FileCollector.html#"><code>FileCollector</code></a>
decouples you from this. A file collector is available through <a href="https://docs.pmd-code.org/apidocs/pmd-core/6.44.0-SNAPSHOT/net/sourceforge/pmd/PmdAnalysis.html#files()"><code>PmdAnalysis#files</code></a>.</p>
