build.xml for pmd bridge

Tor,

1. I think, the build.xml file for pmd bridge contains the error,
this file has:

<property name="pmdmod" value="${netbeans.home}/modules/pmd.jar"/>
<property name="pmdlib" value="${netbeans.home}/modules/ext/pmd-1.01.jar"/>
<!-- Let user override it via the build.properties file -->
<property file="build.properties"/>

But it must have:

<!-- Let user override it via the build.properties file -->
<property file="build.properties"/>
<property name="pmdmod" value="${netbeans.home}/modules/pmd.jar"/>
<property name="pmdlib" value="${netbeans.home}/modules/ext/pmd-1.01.jar"/>

According to Ant 1.5.1 manual (and my experiments :-):

"Properties are immutable: whoever sets a property first freezes it for the
rest of the build; they are most definately not variable."

2. Have you achived any success in this? -

"....I'm working on a rewrite that the java module maintainers
will accept and integrate into their module.  They didn't like
the dependency on a org.netbeans.modules.java class, so I'm
creating a registry class in org.netbeans.api.java."

Thanks!
Andrew
