Hello, In the newest version of Eclipse SonarQube for IDE, red rectangles related to a task “text to be deleted” have appeared. [image] import java.util.List; public class TestSonar { boolean isEmpty(List l) { return l == null || l.size() == 0; } } [image] I think this is unnecessary vi…

You’re probably right. But the rectangles are shaped around the sonar locations, which is misleading.

Thanks for reporting this, we will have a look! @EclipseWizard SonarQube QuickFixes have no marker annotations. I wonder if this could lead to a fallback on such markers?

The issue is not on SonarQube side but in copilot plugin for eclipse.

Yes, there’s a conflict with the Copilot plugin that we identified in the other thread, but we’re still looking at a workaround that would avoid such conflicts. The current next steps I see: Define a proper marker annotation in the SonarQube for Eclipse plugin, that would avoid such unwanted overr…

I guess it could. I can also not recall what the reason is for them not having some marker annotations. Maybe ask good ol’ JH why this wasn’t implemented, I think he may have an answer for that.

Hey! I reported the issue on Copilot for Eclipse side, and they have fixed it. The fix should be included in their next release.

Hey @lrozenblyum , Copilot for Eclipse has released version 0.17 that contains the fix. This should solve the problem. Unfortunately, we haven’t had the bandwidth to tackle this on our side due to current priorities. Since the issue has now been fixed on the Copilot side, we no longer consider it ur…

Thanks @nicolas.quinquenel - at the moment the combination of SonarQube in Eclipse and Copilot for Eclipse work fine.

New markers in Eclipse SonarQube for IDE

SonarQube for IDE Eclipse

Hey @Nicolas_Baumann,

There is no new marker with SonarQube for IDE. Can it be that you perhaps also have the GitHub Copilot plug-in installed?
There is a similar thread, and I guess this can be the same root cause:
