PMD itself still remains compatible with Java 8, so that it still can be used in a pure Java 8 environment. This allows us to use the latest checkstyle version during the build.</p> <h3>🌟️ New and Changed Rules</h3> <h4>New Rules</h4> <ul> <li>The new Java rule <a href="https://docs.pmd-code.org/pmd-doc-7.18.0/pmd_rules_java_errorprone.html#identicalconditionalbranches"><code>IdenticalConditionalBranches</code></a> finds conditional statements that do the same thing when the condition is true and false. This is either incorrect or redundant.</li> <li>The new Java rule <a href="https://docs.pmd-code.org/pmd-doc-7.18.0/pmd_rules_java_bestpractices.html#labeledstatement"><code>LabeledStatement</code></a> finds labeled statements in code. Labels make control flow difficult to understand and should be avoided. By default, the rule allows labeled loops (do, while, for). But it has a property to flag also those labeled loops.</li> <li>The new Java rule <a href="https://docs.pmd-code.org/pmd-doc-7.18.0/pmd_rules_java_bestpractices.html#unusedlabel"><code>UnusedLabel</code></a> finds unused labels which are unnecessary and only make the code hard to read. This new rule will be part of the quickstart ruleset.</li> </ul> <h4>Changed Rules</h4> <ul> <li><a href="https://docs.pmd-code.org/pmd-doc-7.18.0/pmd_rules_java_codestyle.html#confusingternary"><code>ConfusingTernary</code></a> has a new property <code>nullCheckBranch</code> to control, whether null-checks should be allowed (the default case) or should lead to a violation.</li> <li><a href="https://docs.pmd-code.org/pmd-doc-7.18.0/pmd_rules_java_errorprone.html#avoidcatchinggenericexception"><code>AvoidCatchingGenericException</code></a> is now configurable with the new property <code>typesThatShouldNotBeCaught</code>.<br /> ⚠️ The rule has also been moved from category "Design" to category "Error Prone". If you are currently bulk-adding all the rules from the "Design" category into your custom ruleset, then you need to add the rule explicitly again (otherwise it won't be included anymore):</li> </ul> <!-- raw HTML omitted --> </blockquote> <p>...
