Redundant import false-positive (imported package suffixing package name of the importing class)

Clean Code Report False-positive / False-negative...
1

SonarQube reports false positive redundant import issue when the package name of the imported class also happens to be suffxing package name of the importing class.

Products Used:

  • SonarQube 9.3 (build 51899)
  • Sonar Gradle Plugin 3.3
  • Kotlin 1.6.10

Sample code. Mind .feign ending to the package name of the MyLogger class matching feign package name of class being imported (feign.Logger)

package my.company.feign

import feign.Logger

class MyLogger : Logger() {

    override fun log(configKey: String, format: String, vararg args: Any) = Unit
}
