Must-share information (formatted with Markdown):
- which versions are you using (SonarQube Server / Community Build, Scanner, Plugin, and any relevant extension)
- sq server 2025.1
- how is SonarQube deployed:

- what are you trying to achieve
- i want to allow an intentional fallthrough in a switch()
- what have you tried so far to achieve this
i wrote the switch the following way:
switch (myVariable) {
case 1:
foo();
break;
case 2: // Both 'doSomething()' and 'doSomethingElse()' will be executed. Is it on purpose ?
doSomething();
default:
doSomethingElse();
break;
}
which, obviously, fails rule c:S128. This falthrough is intentional though, and i would like to allow it. The sonarqube help recommends to add “[[fallthrough]];” to the case, to mark the intention. our compiler does not like this line. is there a way to change the format for marking the intentional fallthrough? for example, can we make “//fallthrough” the code for allowing a fallthrough?
