 Description   

I upgraded to 5.2.0, and now I get "java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unknown Language 'java' for Rule JumbledIncrementer, supported Languages are" [empty].

Here's my config:

apply plugin: 'pmd'
dependencies {
pmd(
'net.sourceforge.pmd:pmd-core:5.2.0',
'net.sourceforge.pmd:pmd-java:5.2.0'
)
}

Do you explicitly configure any PMD rulesets? Also, can you try `pmd.toolVersion = "5.2.0"` instead of explicitly declaring PMD dependencies?

With ..

apply plugin: 'pmd'
pmd.toolVersion = '5.2.0'

.. I get "java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: net.sourceforge.pmd.ant.PMDTask"

Here's our ruleset: [1]http://pastebin.com/8GbJXJ1i

This will probably be fixed in the next version of PMD, see https://sourceforge.net/p/pmd/bugs/1274/ and https://sourceforge.net/p/pmd/discussion/188193/thread/bdba2845/?limit=25#a044

This has been fixed in PMD 5.2.1. But pmd.toolVersion = '5.2.1' doesn't work, I still have to declare the dependency as described in this issue.

I guess that this commit fixes the issue:

https://github.com/gradle/gradle/commit/b07541e985b17d07f7141b19fd64a10e33c4a0bd

It's not part of Gradle 2.3, so I guess it will work with Gradle 2.4 once it's released.

There are two issues here. One is that gradle was not comparable with pmd 5.2.x which is fixed on master. So gradle 2.4 is pmd 5.2 compatible. The particular issue error reported here ("IllegalArgumentException after upgrading to PMD 5.2.0") is a bug in PMD. (see http://sourceforge.net/p/pmd/bugs/1274/ for details.) updating to 5.2.1 fixes the issue and works fine with the latest gradle nightly
