Must-share information (formatted with Markdown):

  • dotnet-sonarscanner - v8.0.2
  • SonarQube v10.6.0.92116
  • I’m running analysis on my .Net project with excluded files.
  • Since version 8.0.2, the “sonar.exclusions” set inside SonarQube project settings are ignored and all files are scan. I saw that a temporary patch has been applied in this new version but apparently it has some side effects

Hey there.

What are you seeing in the logs that make you think all files, including files you don’t expect, are being scanned? Was a different version behaving differently? More details would really help!

Ah – turns out we have a regression! [SCAN4NET-48] - Jira

We’ll come back with a fix ASAP.

Hey Colin,
I noticed that because the code covered and files analysed are wider: New errors appeared in the reports and code coverage has reduced since the new version.

Here are the logs:

In SonarQube, sonar.exclusions is set with :
**/Offline/*Offline*.cs, **/Migrations/*
