Plugin Information
This plugin generates the trend report for duplicate code checkers like CPD or Simian.
Description
This plug-in is supported by the Static Analysis Collector plug-in that collects different analysis results and shows the results in aggregated trend graphs. Additionally, health reporting and build stability is also based on the aggregated results.
The DRY principle (don't repeat yourself) of the pragmatic programmers states that every piece of system knowledge should have one authoritative, unambiguous representation. The dry plug-in helps you to adhere to this principle by showing you the duplicate code blocks in your project.
This plug-in does not scan for duplicate code by itself; it only shows the results of duplicate code checker tools. Currently CPD and Simian are supported. This plug-in is part of the suite of static code analysis plug-ins that are documented on a separate WIKI page.
The following features are provided by this plug-in:
- Configuration of the files to scan after a build.
- Build summary showing the new and fixed warnings of a build
- Several trend reports showing the number of warnings per build
- Overview of the found warnings per module, package, category, or type
- Parsing of Maven pom.xml or Ant build.xml configuration files to obtain the module or project name
- Parsing of Java files to obtain the package name
- Detail reports of the found warnings optionally filtered by severity (or new and fixed)
- Colored HTML display of the corresponding source file and warning lines:
- Direct link to the warning line
- Highlighting of single lines as well as line ranges
- Highlighting of multiple line ranges per warning (different color for primary range)
- Tool tip describing the warning message
- Failure threshold to mark a build as unstable
- Configurable project health support
- Works with the freestyle and native m2 build options (activated on goal pmd:cpd or site)
- Remote API to export the build quality and found warnings
- Several tokens to simplify post processing of the results
- Localization available for: DE, JA (Please help to localize DRY for your locale!)
The current release is available in the download section. This plug-in is developed and maintained by Ullrich Hafner. Please use the mailing lists or issue tracker to ask questions, create feature request or bug reports, since I don't read the comment section on this page regularly.

I really love such reports plugins, however this plugin seems to cause a problem within displaying hudson job configuration view. Ff's firebug says there are too much recursion of following javascript line.
window.onload = function() { if(oldOnLoadFordryDefaultEncoding) oldOnLoadFordryDefaultEncoding();That problem refers also latest versions of checkstyle, pmd, findbugs and varnings plugins.

But with version 2.0 I can no more see, where the duplication comes from. Knowing that some code is duplicated is helpfull but for legacy applications with lots of duplicated code it helps to know which files to compare.

Under Windows Server 2003 / 7 x64 the DRY plugin prefers the XML-report in ISO-8859-1 format and not in CP-1252. So set the encoding of cpd to this format.
With Ant and C++ code as executor this is the command:

I noticed there's a new tab on the page, and I wanted to extract that information to put into an email notification. However, there is no such information in the XML file generated by phpcpd, so I'm wondering how you calculate new violations.
