#1079 Exclude pattern does not work

[Val]

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a Java class that should produce a warning, for example "com.MyBadClass"
2. In the ruleset file specify:

  <exclude-pattern>.*/com/MyBadClass.*</exclude-pattern>
  <exclude-pattern>.*/com/.*</exclude-pattern>

1. The warning is shown for the MyBadClass.

Hi,
I tried to reproduce the bug, but I couldn't (with PMD 5.0.1/5.0.2).
Which version of PMD were you using?

Can you try out the attached project? Simply unzip it and adjust the path in run-pmd.sh (or run-pmd.bat) and run it. Does it detect the JumbledIncrementor violation for you?
Or can you adjust this project, so that you can reproduce the issue?

Thanks,
Andreas

I used pmd-5.1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar from net.sourceforge.pmd.eclipse.plugin_4.0.0.201211080927.jar.

Alright - I move this bug to the eclipse module. PMD itself seems to be fine.
