How can I upgrade pmd version?

I have

pmd {
    toolVersion = '5.0.5'
  }

but in generate xml report I see

<pmd version="5.0.0" timestamp="2013-10-28T11:07:24.823">

I just tried this out with Gradle 1.8 and it generated the correct version for me. Here’s my example code:

apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'pmd'
  repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}
  pmd {
    toolVersion = '5.0.5'
}

What’s the Gradle version you are using? Does your build potentially set the “toolVersion” property somewhere else to 5.0.0?

Ou… One cannot be so stupid :frowning: Sorry, that was exactly my problem. I had toolVersion set to 5.0.0 just 10 lines down :frowning:
