Defaults to true. > >Type: boolean >Since: 3.1 >Required: No >Default: true (from http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-pmd-plugin/pmd-mojo.html#skipEmptyReport) [~languitar] Would this parameter solve your issue? Would it be better to have the default for this parameter to create the report, rather than skip the empty report? > Create report even if no warnings have been found > -- > > Key: MPMD-225 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPMD-225 > Project: Maven PMD Plugin > Issue Type: Wish >Reporter: Johannes Wienke > > Right now, no report for the site plugin is generated if no violations have > been found.
