Fixed bug 1215854 - Package/class/method names are now filled in whenever possible, and the XML report includes all three.
Fixed bug 1209719 - MethodArgumentCouldBeFinal no longer triggers on arguments which are modified using postfix or prefix expressions.  A bug in AvoidReassigningParameters was also fixed under the same bug id.

Implemented RFE 1188604 - AvoidThrowingCertainExceptionTypes has been split into AvoidThrowingRawExceptionTypes and AvoidThrowingNullPointerException.
Implemented RFE 1188369 - UnnecessaryBooleanAssertion now checks for things like 'assertTrue(!foo)'.  These should be changed to 'assertFalse(foo)' for clarity.
Implemented RFE 1199622 - UnusedFormalParameter now defaults to only checking private methods unless a 'checkall' property is set.

Fixed bug which caused MissingSerialVersionUID to trigger on all interfaces that implemented other interfaces.
Modified NullAssignmentRule to catch null assignments in ternary expressions.
Added two new node types - ASTCatchStatement and ASTFinallyStatement.
Modified rule XML definition; it no longer includes a symboltable attribute since the symbol table layer is now run for all files analyzed.
Harden equality of AbstractRule and RuleSet objects (needed for the Eclipse plugin features)
Change RuleSet.getRuleByName. Now return null instead of throwing a RuntimeException when the rule is not found
Add .project and .classpath to the module so that it can be checkout as an Eclipse project

Applied patch 1051956 - Rulesets that reference rules using "ref" can now override various properties.
Applied patch 1070733 - CPD's Java checker now has an option to ignore both literals and identifiers - this can help find large duplicate code blocks, but can also result in false positives.
YAHTMLRenderer no longer has dependence on Ant packages.
Modified the AST to correctly include PostfixExpression nodes.  Previously a statement like "x++;" was embedded in the parent StatementExpression node.
Moved BooleanInstantiation from the design ruleset to the basic ruleset.
Updated Xerces libraries to v2.6.2.
Many rule names had the word "Rule" tacked on to the end.  Various folks thought this was a bad idea, so here are the new names of those rules which were renamed:
- basic.xml: UnnecessaryConversionTemporary, OverrideBothEqualsAndHashcode, DoubleCheckedLocking

- clone.xml: ProperCloneImplementation
- codesize.xml: CyclomaticComplexity, ExcessivePublicCount
- controversial.xml: UnnecessaryConstructor, AssignmentInOperand, DontImportSun, SuspiciousOctalEscape
- coupling.xml: CouplingBetweenObjects, ExcessiveImports, LooseCoupling
- design.xml: UseSingleton, SimplifyBooleanReturns, AvoidReassigningParameters, ConstructorCallsOverridableMethod, AccessorClassGeneration, CloseConnection, OptimizableToArrayCall, IdempotentOperations. ImmutableField
- junit.xml: JUnitAssertionsShouldIncludeMessage, JUnitTestsShouldIncludeAssert

- strictexception.xml: ExceptionAsFlowControl, AvoidCatchingNPE, AvoidThrowingCertainExceptionTypes
Continued working on JDK 1.5 compatibility - added support for static import statements, varargs, and the new for loop syntax
- still TODO: generics and annotations (note that autoboxing shouldn't require a grammar change)
- Good article on features: http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/releases/j2se15/

October 19, 2004 - 2.0:
New rules: InstantiationToGetClass, IdempotentOperationsRule, SuspiciousEqualsMethodName, SimpleDateFormatNeedsLocale, JUnitTestsShouldContainAssertsRule, SuspiciousConstantFieldName, ImmutableFieldRule, MoreThanOneLoggerRule, LoggerIsNotStaticFinalRule, UseLocaleWithCaseConversions
Applied patch in RFE 992576 - Enhancements to VariableNamingConventionsRule
Implemented RFE 995910 - The HTML report can now include links to HTMLlized source code - for example, the HTML generated by JXR.
Implemented RFE 665824 - PMD now ignores rule violations in lines containing the string 'NOPMD'.
Fixed bug in SimplifyBooleanExpressions - now it catches more cases.
Fixed bugs in AvoidDuplicateLiterals - now it ignores small duplicate literals, its message is more helpful, and it catches more cases.
Fixed bug 997893 - UnusedPrivateField now detects assignments to members of private fields as a usage.
Fixed bug 1020199 - UnusedLocalVariable no longer flags arrays as unused if an assignment is made to an array slot.
Fixed bug 1027133 - Now ExceptionSignatureDeclaration skips certain JUnit framework methods.

Applied patch 1032927 - The XML report now includes the rule priority.
Added data flow analysis facade from Raik Schroeder.
Added two new optional attributes to rule definitions - symboltable and dfa.  These allow the symbol table and DFA facades to be configured on a rule-by-rule basis.  Note that if your rule needs the symbol table; you'll need to add symboltable="true" to your rule definition.  FWIW, this also results in about a 5% speedup for rules that don't need either layer.
Added a "logging" ruleset - thanks to Miguel Griffa for the code!
Enhanced the ASTViewer - and renamed it 'Designer' - to display data flows.
Moved development environment to Maven 1.0.
Moved development environment to Ant 1.6.2.  This is nice because using the new JUnit task attribute "forkmode='perBatch'" cuts test runtime from 90 seconds to 7 seconds.  Sweet.
MethodWithSameNameAsEnclosingClass now reports a more helpful line number.

Moved LooseCoupling from design.xml to coupling.xml.
Some minor performance optimizations - removed some unnecessary casts from the grammar, simplified some XPath rules.
Postfix expressions (i.e., x++) are now available in the grammar.  To access them, search for StatementExpressions with an image of "++" or "--" - i.e., in XPath, //StatementExpression[@Image="++"].  This is an odd hack and hopefully will get cleared up later.
Ant task and CLI now used BufferedInputStreams.
Converted AtLeastOneConstructor rule from Java code to XPath.
Implemented RFE 743460: The XML report now contains the ruleset name.
Implemented RFE 958714: Private field and local variables that are assigned but not used are now flagged as unused.
Fixed bug 962782 - BeanMembersShouldSerializeRule no longer reports set/is as being a violation.

Fixed bug 786611 - Expressions are no longer over-expanded in the AST

Implemented RFE 925839 - Added some more detail to the UseSingletonRule.
Added an optional 'failuresPropertyName' attribute to the Ant task.

Fixed bug 895661 - XML reports containing error elements no longer have malformed XML.
