net.sourceforge.pmd.lang.rule.AbstractDelegateRule

net.sourceforge.pmd.lang.rule.RuleReference

All Implemented Interfaces:

PropertySource, Rule

public class RuleReference
extends AbstractDelegateRule

This class represents a Rule which is a reference to Rule defined in another RuleSet. All details of the Rule are delegated to the underlying referenced Rule, but those operations which modify overridden aspects of the rule are explicitly tracked. Modification operations which set a value to the current underlying value do not override.
