Hi PravinD - Cool, OK, let's see: > occurences of String objects and throws a > warning if the names of the objects do not > start with the letters 'str' Hm. The XPath rule below will catch field declarations of Strings that don't start with "str": //FieldDeclaration [ Type/Name[@Image='String'] and not(starts-with(VariableDeclarator/VariableDeclaratorId/@Image, 'str')) ] and you can write similar ones for parameters and local variable declarations. > checks for open connection objects and > throws a warning if these objects remain > unclosed. Check out the CloseConnection rule here: http://pmd.sourceforge.net/rules/design.html Yours, Tom

  Hi Pravin -
  
  Sounds good! But you may want to post questions on the PMD forums:
  
  http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=188192
  
  A bunch of people monitor those forums, and you may get a faster answer that way...
  
  Yours,
  
  Tom
