Hi,
I'm aware that I'm opening a can of worms, but can we discuss PHPMD
rules?
In particular, I find that to obey the maximum variable name (20
characters) rule, one has to sometimes abbreviate at the expanse of
clarity.

I agree. Many rules are useful to keep the code clear, but sometimes it
could be a constraint.
Marc is talking about the length of variable names, but it's the same
thing about the line length. Limit to 80 characters is out-of-dated. Our
screen are larger than "before" so let's use more. (And you choose to
use more because our standard is now 85 characters. In my job, we
decided to use 120.)
But this was only an example to support what Marc said.
Well, on my laptop, I don't have that much space and I'm happy with the
current line length limit.
But if I'm right, the problem of PMD is that you can activate a group of
rules but not a single rule. (Some one to contradict this please ?)
One possibility could be to try to implement the interesting rules in
PHPCS if they don't exist.
Hugues.

You're right. We are not at work, we don't have all the same devices. But
it was only to say that things need to evolve and to ask if there is a way
to activate only some PMD rules.
