SonarLint not working with Eclipse STS

[H.Lo (Hrvoje Lončar)]

SonarLint is not working on my primary/desktop computer but it’s working on my notebook.
Installed components are similar - the only difference is in Java: desktop computer has Oracle Java 17 and notebook has OpenJDK 14.
In given example I would expect warning about returning “result” immediately inside foo() method which is shown on my notebook, but not showing on my desktop computer. All rules for Java are enabled in Eclipse preferences dialog.

Simple Java class

package com.thevegcat.app.data;
public class AppConfig {
	public static final String DEFAULT_NAME = "TheVegCat";
	public static final String OWNER = "H.Lo";
	String foo() {
		final String foo = "foo" + 12 + "bar";
		return foo;
	}
}

Output from Eclipse SonarLint console

Hi,

Can you enable verbose + analysis output in the SonarLint console, then reopen the file and provide the complete logs?

Thanks

Hi,

I have news! When I move this class to main package, the warning is displayed.
But when in test package, no warning is displayed.

BR,

But when in test package, no warning is displayed.

Many rules of our analyzers are not evaluated on test code. This is because we considered rules will be too noisy for tests.
