Are new rules added automatically to default profiles?

SonarQube Server / Community Build

Hello,

we are using SonarQube 7.6.0.21501 Developer Edition and the SonarJava Plugin.
We created a custom Java profile for our projects and marked that one as the default Java profile.

Every time the Java plugin is updated, new rules are automatically added to our custom default Java profile.

Your documentation says:

Each time a language plugin update is released, new rules are added, but they won’t appear automatically in your profile unless you’re using a built-in profile such as Sonar way .

Could it be, that new rules are added to default profiles, no matter if they are built-in profiles or not? Is this intended? Or might we be doing anything wrong?

Thanks,
Tim

Tim,

Does your custom quality profile inherit from the built-in Quality Profile?

Best regards,

Hi Colin,

no, our custom profile has no parent.
