I’ve successfully generated gcov output and uploaded them to SonarCloud for my C++ project. However, the “Uncovered Conditions” shown in SonarCloud is not working (always shows `-` for every part of my source code).

I was wondering what I need to do in order to enable this functionality? Currently, I am passing these flags to gcov: `-a -b -c -f -u -p -l`. This should enable branch coverage in the gcov output, as far as I can tell from `gcov -help`

Thank you

Hi @torfinn,

could you manually check the `*.gcov` files to see if they contains condition coverage information?

Hi @mpaladin, I don’t know what happened, but the condition coverage suddenly and magically appeared in SonarCloud now! So we can close this I guess 🙂
