Description Markus Kuppe CLA 2010-06-05 03:41:17 EDT 
Much like Bucky runs Emma as part of the test launch, support for findbugs and/or other static code analyzers would be of great use.

Thanks

Agree, anyone wants to pick one and implement? 
As I understood it, it was not very difficult to add support for EcLemma, so it should be possible to look at that implementation for guidance.

AFAIK, Findbugs and PMD are simply builders that run as part of your regular build. If the bundles are split well between UI and non-UI parts, it should be as easy as installing the headless part into Buckminster. No need to write a Buckminster plug-in at all.

I did a very similar thing recently with Groovy support for Buckminster. See these threads for installation details:
