Luigi Berrettini commented on MPMD-303:
---------------------------------------
{quote}Only when you run {{mvn pmd:pmd}} directly, your configuration is not
applied - that's because, in that case, the reporting configuration is not used
and you need to configure the m-pmd-p under {{<build>/<plugins>}} as a build
plugin in addition to the reporting plugin.

I did read the Maven guide and [it
says|[http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-configuring-plugins.html#using-the-reporting-tag-vs-build-tag]]:
{{mvn aplugin:areportgoal}}
It uses *firstly* the parameters defined in the <configuration> element of each
reporting Plugin specified in the <reporting> element; *if a parameter is not
found*, it will look up to a parameter defined in the <configuration> element
of each plugin specified in <build>
> Configuration is ignored

> When I run *_mvn site_* or *_mvn pmd:pmd_* no output is display on the
> console and the default ruleset is used since only
> *_target\pmd\rulesets\maven-pmd-plugin-default.xml_* is generated.
> Looking at the code on GitHub I see the repo contains only the default
> ruleset.
>
> Moreover the build plugin configuration does not support rulesets which would
> be a nice to have.
