Rule Set:
<rule ref="rulesets/java/design.xml"/>
Description:
The code below will be flagged by PMD with:
<violation beginline="6" endline="8" begincolumn="11" endcolumn="3" rule="UncommentedEmptyConstructor" ruleset="Design" package="com.ovyapp.android.feature.calendar" class="MyClass" method="MyClass" externalInfoUrl="https://pmd.github.io/pmd-5.5.5/pmd-java/rules/java/design.html#UncommentedEmptyConstructor" priority="3"> Document empty constructor </violation>
Maybe this rule could be relaxed when an annotation is applied on the constructor, especially if it's javax.inject.Inject since this annotation can be picked up by annotation processors such as Dagger 2 and let them know that they can build the MyClass class.
Code Sample demonstrating the issue:
import javax.inject.Inject;
public class MyClass {
@Inject MyClass() {
}
}
