Hey there. Can you provide a reproducer of your specific code that is triggering the issue?

Hello Colin, Here is one example of a class triggering the issue on SonarCloud: import java.util.UUID; import lombok.AllArgsConstructor; import lombok.Builder; import lombok.Getter; import lombok.NoArgsConstructor; import lombok.Setter; @NoArgsConstructor @AllArgsConstructor @Builder @Getter @Set…

Hello @taomoh , Thanks for your message, I tried to check your example and I can’t reproduce it. Issues are filtered out correctly because of Lombok annotations. Could you, please, give me a little bit more context on how you’re running analysis and answer these questions: Provide analysis log P…
