I recently added a new module to my monorepo to scan my lambda functions and it is incorrectly citing a duplicate block in one of my files, where there is no duplicate. It is a switch statement with different cases which isn’t used anywhere else in my repo. Is there a way to ‘fix’ this? The weird thing is it says it is duplicated by the same block that it is referring to?

Hey there.

Can you provide a screenshot or code sample?

This is the only code like this in the whole repo.

Hi, I’m running into this exact same issue. Is there anyway we can get around this without excluding the entire file? Can we exclude the switch case code block?

I saw some other post about about “code block exclusions”, but I could not get it to work. There was mention of a UI to set this information, but I dont see this UI at all on my side. (Note, I’m set as ADMIN too).

Hi, This is an old post … but how did you get around this? I couldnt get exclusions to work for a specific code block and file exclusions is not something I want either. I need the rest of the file to be scanned.

Anyway, I just rewrote our switch-case blocks to using the Map object. I’m not to happy that I had to rewrite a switch-case statement, seeing that it’s a pretty fundamental feature of most languages.
