API Changes

Deprecations

The following methods have been deprecated for removal:

• net.sourceforge.pmd.eclipse.runtime.properties.IProjectProperties#getAuxClasspath()
• net.sourceforge.pmd.eclipse.runtime.properties.impl.ProjectPropertiesImpl#getAuxClasspath()

Use the new method getClasspath() instead. It doesn't use a custom classloader anymore and just returns
the classpath as a single string (path elements separated by the os specific path separator).

The following class has been deprecated for removal:

• net.sourceforge.pmd.eclipse.runtime.cmd.JavaProjectClassLoader
