1. mvn pmd:check

Running PMD through: [CLI | Ant | Maven | Gradle | Designer | Other]

Maven (Idea-bundled Maven 3.8.1)
OSX
openjdk 11.0.16 2022-07-19

Please see the discussion here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPMD-353

In short, you have the following options:

• Upgrade to maven 3.8.6 or later
• Stay on maven-pmd-plugin 3.17.0
• Wait until a new version of maven-pmd-plugin is released with a fix for that problem, that makes it working again with old maven versions.

The same question was asked at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73549816/java-lang-nosuchmethoderror-thrown-by-maven-pmd-plugin-3-18-0

Are you sure, you are using maven 3.8.6? The problem appears only if you use maven 3.5.x or 3.6.x... Please double check your maven version.

Thanks @adangel.

I can confirm using 3.8.6 version of maven does not have that issue. I was using an IntelliJ bundled maven 3.8.1 which was causing the issue. I guess your speedy patch in apache/maven-pmd-plugin#91 will fix that, I will stick to 3.17.0 until latest maven-pmd-plugin release.

[haroon-sheikh]

Will be fixed in maven-pmd-release:3.19.0 https://github.com/apache/maven-pmd-plugin/blob/master/src/site/markdown/releasenotes.md#version-3190

[adangel]

FYI - maven-pmd-plugin 3.19.0 has just been released, which contains the fix for that problem.
