processRuleset() public method

Rules founds within the ruleset are processed immediately, but sniff classes are not registered by this method.
public processRuleset ( string $rulesetPath, integer $depth ) : array
$rulesetPath string The path to a ruleset XML file.
$depth integer How many nested processing steps we are in. This is only used for debug output.
return array
 /**
  * Returns a list of paths to XML standard files for all sniffs in a standard.
  *
  * Any sniffs that do not have an XML standard file are obviously not included
  * in the returned array. If documentation is only being generated for some
  * sniffs (ie. $this->_sniffs is not empty) then all others sniffs will
  * be filtered from the results as well.
