Update Site URL: http://pmd.sourceforge.net/eclipse

PMD scans Java source code and looks for potential problems like: * Possible bugs - empty try/catch/finally/switch statements * Dead code - unused local variables, parameters and private methods * Suboptimal code - wasteful String/StringBuffer usage * Overcomplicated expressions - unnecessary if statements, for loops that could be while loops * Duplicate code - copied/pasted code means copied/pasted bugs * ... and many others This plugin provides the integration of PMD into an Eclipse based environment. Eclipse v2.1.x is no more supported, but a version of the plugin for this environment is still provided.
