Dear Eclipse users,
I’m happy to announce the new version 10.10 of SonarQube for Eclipse!
Following our recent rebranding, you can now see the updated labels and logos inside the extension and in the Eclipse Marketplace.
Additionally, the release of SonarQube Server 10.8 brings new features including the introduction of two modes for issues and rules severities:
- The Standard Experience mode maintains the issue categorization (bug, vulnerability, and code smell) from SonarQube 9.9.
- The Multi-Quality Rule (MQR) mode uses the newer categorization and severities, enabling issues to have multiple qualities
Depending on the selected mode, you’ll see the changes reflected in SonarQube for IDE when in connected mode. See the screenshots below:
Standard mode
MQR mode
Please also note that this release deprecates username/password-based authentication for connected mode, which was deprecated in November 2023 in favor of tokens that could be easily generated from the Edit SonarQube connection window.
Finally, this release brings important analyzers updates:
- SonarQube open-source analyzers bundled by SonarQube for IDE are now using the new Sonar Source-Available License. If you are scanning your code using SonarQube for IDE, don’t worry—nothing will change! Learn more about the new Sonar License for SonarQube Analyzers
- More secret detection patterns are now available in commercial editions only. Functionality and licensing updates, along with the new SonarQube free experience updates, are explained here.
You can find the release notes here.
Enjoy,
Farah
