Known Issues

• not tested with Java 9, 10 and 12
• Ensure that a rule is enabled if you get no results. In new SQ versions the default profile is read-only. The cxx plugin does not enable rules for external tools per default.
• Starting with SQ 6.2 there are some new metrics and some are no more available. Please have a look to the SonarQube release notes.
• duplicated_lines_density values are different with SQ 7.5
• project's duplication density value will likely rise with SQ 7.8 (SONAR-12188)
• test execution metrics are not supported
• The Cppcheck plugin is deprecated and not working in parallel to this plugin. This plugin provides an own Cppcheck sensor.
• C plugin and JSON Compilation Database support are experimental only
