SonarCloud - Java 11 deprecation support

SonarQube Cloud

Template for a good new topic, formatted with Markdown:

  • ALM used (GitHub, Bitbucket Cloud, Azure DevOps) - GitHub
  • CI system used (Bitbucket Cloud, Azure DevOps, Travis CI, Circle CI - GitHub actions, Azure DevOps
  • Scanner command used when applicable (private details masked)
  • Languages of the repository - Java
  • Only if the SonarCloud project is public, the URL
    • And if you need help with pull request decoration, then the URL to the PR too
  • Error observed (wrap logs/code around with triple quotes ``` for proper formatting)
  • Steps to reproduce - we tried to follow the link - Scanner environment & SonarCloud for this Java 11 deprecation, as we have lot of projects in 11 we will not be able to immediately migrate to 17 so we would require a workaround to just update the sonar scanner version alone to 17
  • Potential workaround

Do not share screenshots of logs – share the text itself (bonus points for being well-formatted)!

Hey there.

The workaround would be to compile with Java 11, and then run the analysis with Java 17.

As documented:

# Gradle
gradle build ...
export JAVA_HOME=/path/to/java17
gradle sonarqube ...
