!unknownSymbol! getting annotations names

[Bruna Guize Sponchiado]

Hey guys. I'm just getting into developing new rules for SonarJava and my first rule will be about class annotations when they meet some naming pattern.

I was trying to create some rules and it was not working at all. Then I created some code to report an issue for every annotation found and then I realized that i was getting "!unknownSymbol!" for 80% of my project annotations. Some of them are working just fine.

Here's my code:

public class EntityAnnotationRule extends IssuableSubscriptionVisitor {

@Override

public List<Kind> nodesToVisit() {

return ImmutableList.of(Kind.CLASS);

}

@Override

public void visitNode(Tree tree) {

ClassTree clazzTree = (ClassTree) tree;

if (checkClazzNamePattern(clazzTree.symbol().name())) {

for (AnnotationTree annotationTree : clazzTree.modifiers().annotations()) {

reportIssue(annotationTree, "Has Annotation: " + annotationTree.symbolType().name());

}

}

}

private boolean checkClazzNamePattern(String name) {

return name.contains("SomePattern");

}

}

Any thoughts on this?

Thank you.

Hi, 

What is the SonarJava version used ? How do you run your analysis (which scanner) and most importantly : is the .class file of your annotation provided to the analyzer (via sonar.java.binaries or sonar.java.libraries)? 

Cheers,

Hi Nicolas!

I'm using the following setup:

SonarQube 6.7.4

SonarJava 5.4

SonarScanner 3.2.0

Also sonar.java.binaries=target/classes is on my sonar-project.properties file

Weird thing is: some annotations like @Entity are being recognized in some classes and not in others that are in the same modules and packages.

Cheers!

OK Guys. Got it working with Maven analysis :)

Thank you for your time.
