I am trying to add Java source code analyser plugins - PMD,Checkstyle & FindBug in Rational Application Developer 7.5.3 but I am getting some dependency issues and it's not allowing me to install.The same is getting successfully installed in eclipse.

Please suggest whether I need to check for any particular versions for RAD or any other compatibility.

Thanks

RAD 7.5 is based on Eclipse 3.4. Which is quite old. Are you using versions of those plugins that are compatible with such an old version of Eclipse? –  Jeanne Boyarsky Aug 23 '13 at 14:47
    
SonarQube is not compatible with Eclipse 3.4 (as far as I tried) and I am able to install PMD V3.0 now.Regarding checkstyle I couldn't get any other information. Will there be huge difference between PMD V3 and PMD V5.0 ? Will I be able to add the rules in V5.0 to V3.0 ? Please suggest. –  Ramesh Jothimani Aug 25 '13 at 4:42
    
PMD 3/4 is quite different from 5 under the hood. The rules should be compatible though. At least most of them. –  Jeanne Boyarsky Aug 25 '13 at 11:56
    
Thanks Jeanne Boyarsky. –  Ramesh Jothimani Aug 26 '13 at 11:14
    
If possible upgrade to the latest version of RAD. It has improved integration with third party tools, including Checkstyle and FindBugs (See here). –  Matt Nov 22 '13 at 19:29
