Following this post, I have learnt that
the docs on cfamily seem outdated(?)
as the --batch command is deprecated and Bazel complains when I use --spawn_strategy=local --genrule_strategy=local --bazelrc=/dev/null
Following the solution on the very post, I have run
bazel clean
build-wrapper-linux-x86-64 --out-dir <build-wrapper-output-directory> bazel --batch build --spawn_strategy=standalone --genrule_strategy=standalone <targets> <important-flags>
sonar-scanner
and my scan execution is successful!
Thank you
