Hi,

I am using a PMD configuration similar to the one described in the multimodule maven project https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-pmd-plugin/examples/multi-module-config.html

It is working fine with the maven commandline but within the Eclipse integration it does not seem to find the whizbang/pmd-ruleset.xml and outputs no rule in the local eclipse .pmdruleset.xml project file (the exclude-pattern for target folder is still there).

No problem when using full path nor PMD default xml category files.
FWIW, my setup is working fine with checkstyle's configLocation and findbugs' includeFilterFile in a multimodule maven project fashion.

Regards

Nicolas
