Do not raise java:S1149 if that is imposed by method signature of a library

[Nicolas_Baumann]

Hi,

The rule java:S1149 is “Synchronized classes Vector, Hashtable, Stack and StringBuffer should not be used”.
It is impossible to satisfy this rule if we call a library method which signature uses synchronized classes Vector, Hashtable, Stack and StringBuffer.
Is it possible for you to filter out these warnings in this case?

Thanks,
Nicolas Baumann.

Goes in the same direction as this request:

Sonarqube java should ignore method signature rules on overriden methods

Hi Using Sonarqube 9.3 with java we get findings on method signature that are overriden: e.g rule java:S3553 is violated for this code: @Override public ListPartitionReassignmentsResult listPartitionReassignments(Optional<Set<TopicPartition>> partitions, ListPartitionReassignmentsOptions options) { return client.listPartitionReassignments(partitions, options); } Sonar should only complain on the base declaration which is out of scope in this example as it is from the kafka library.

Yes but overriding is a particular case. I was referring to calling methods in general (non necessarily overriding) that are found in a library. If this library is not open source, there is not the slightest chance of anything possible.
