I have the following installed:
- Visual Studio 2017 v 15.9.2
- SonarLint for Visual Studio 2017 v4.7.0.3891
- SonarQube v7.4(Build 18908)
I created a C# code analyzer using Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 (Due to code analyzer created via VS 2017 15.9.2 is not supported by SonarQube.Roslyn.SDK-2.0). After installing the generated jar file to my SonarQube server, I am able to activate the custom rule in my default quality profile. Then I bind a C# solution in VS2017 to a SonarQube project via the connected mode. I am able to see the custom rule in .sonarlint\xxx.ruleset file that was generated for my solution
However, when I run code analysis on the solution in VS2017, the custom rule was not applied. If I activate a standard SonarQube rule (example S126) in my quality profile and update the connection, then S126 is applied correctly.
I tried installing the Nuget package for the custom rule for my project, but the rule was applied even when I deactivated it in my SonarQube quality profile.
Are custom rules supported in this scenario? If yes, what can I do to make it work?
