Can PMD be customized to fully support a new language, in a reasonable amount of time. I mean I know that technically almost anything can be done, but im wondering if this can be done in a reasonable amount of time? E.g. < 2 weeks

This page mentions how to write a CPD parser http://pmd.sourceforge.net/cpd-parser-howto.html

But is this just for copy / paste detection? Does writing a CPD parser give me full support of PMD in terms of rile sets?
