Hmm, I think I discovered the right strategy to make a PMD ruleset for J2ME development. For this to work you need and IDe that has both a PMD plugin and an AST viwere plugin. If you are using Eclipse the AST viewer plugin is here.
Bascially, you will be coding two classes the correct one and the bad one. In the AST viewer you want to denote the differences in nodes as what is common in nodes between classes you do not have to write as a xpath PMD rule. What is missing from the bad class is what your xpath PMD rule is checking for in that particular rule.
The advantages of using both plugins in an IDE is that you do not have to step out of teh IDe and fumble with PMD stand-alone and then get back into the IDE as its all in one place.
