If your question is about SonarLint in the IntelliJ Platform, VS Code, Visual Studio, or Eclipse, please post it in that sub-category.

Otherwise, please provide:

  • Operating system: Fedora 40
  • IDE name and flavor/env: Visual Studio Code
  • Sonar Lint VSCode Version: 4.11

And a thorough description of the problem / question:

SonarLint is showing a false positive on the following example:

let step;
try {
  step = 1;
  operation1();
  step = 2;
  operation2();
  ...
} catch (something) {
  LOG.message(`Failed in step ${step}`);
}

The error sonarlint(typescript:S1854) is shown on line step = 1; and it shouldn’t be as the value is possibly used in the catch block.
