Excluding C/C++ analysis

SonarQube
1

SonarScanner: 4.0.0.1744, SonarQube: 8.3.1

I want to exclude analysis of C/C++ code in a Java project. I added the following settings to sonar-project.properties

sonar.c.file.suffixes=-
sonar.cpp.file.suffixes=- 
sonar.objc.file.suffixes=-

I still see this error

The only way to get an accurate analysis of C/C++/Objective-C files is by using the SonarSource build-wrapper
and setting the property "sonar.cfamily.build-wrapper-output", but it was not specified.

If you don't want to analyze C/C++/Objective-C files, then prevent them from being analyzed by setting the following properties:

    sonar.c.file.suffixes=-
    sonar.cpp.file.suffixes=-
    sonar.objc.file.suffixes=-

Am I missing something?

Thanks

Hi,

What you tried seems eminently reasonable & I’m not sure off-hand about the order of operations that caused it to not work. I think what you want to do instead is either set an exclusion (which ought to work) or perhaps define sonar.sources more narrowly (which would definitely work). The docs should help.
