Can anybody tell me how to install PMD in Eclipse. I have downloaded PMD 5.0.4 from the following link:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pmd/files/latest/download?source=files
When I add this archive file in Eclipse install option I am getting an error stating that "It could not find the file specified".
Just follow the directions on http://sourceforge.net/projects/pmd/files/pmd-eclipse/update-site/ I copied the direction here for you so you don't even have to click !!
In Eclipse, click on Help -> Install New Software...
Click on Add.. Enter the following:
Name: PMD for Eclipse Update Site
URL: https://sourceforge.net/projects/pmd/files/pmd-eclipse/update-site/
and click OK.
You should see PMD for Eclipse 4. Select the checkbox next to it and click Next >.
You'll need to accept the license and confirm you want to install a plugin that is not digitally signed. Go ahead and install it anyway.
Restart eclipse.
You should not download anything. Instead, simply add following URL as new update site in Eclipse -> Help -> Install new sofware:
http://pmd.sourceforge.net/eclipse
Then select appropriate Eclipse PMD plugin and you are done.
Please use eclipse update site http://www.acanda.ch/eclipse-pmd/release/latest
Are you behind a firewall?
Check the connection settings in your eclipse.
