No bugs shown from cppcheck in Sonarqube

[SK]

Hi.  

   Sonarqube is not reporting any bugs eventhough they are there in the cpp check report. 

I am running this to get the cppcheck report

cppcheck --xml-version=2  xcipio/LIS/src/CLIENTLIB 2> xcipio/cpp_clientlib.xml

I have tried with xml version 1 as well

Sonar project properties is like this:

sonar.projectKey=my:full-xcipio-Xcipio_Feature_Dev_master-CLIENTLIB

sonar.projectVersion=1.0

sonar.projectName=full-xcipio-Xcipio_Feature_Dev_master-CLIENTLIB

sonar.sources=xcipio/LIS/src/CLIENTLIB

sonar.cxx.includeDirectories=ACEROOT/inc/ace,ACEROOT/inc/ace/os_include

sonar.sourceEncoding=UTF-8

sonar.profile=xcipio-sonar-way-rules

sonar.cxx.cppcheck.reportPath=/home/support/jenkins/jenkins20/workspace/xcipio-workspace/xcipio/cpp_clientlib.xml

sonar.exclusions=**/CtapMediationMsg.C,**/EIMSValidationTestSuite.H

Analysis is successful but sonar scanner reports that it cannot find the files.  When I do a 'ls' on the file, its very much there.  I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

The files are there:

[sup...@10.0.156.73 xcipio-workspace]$ ls /home/support/jenkins/jenkins20/workspace/xcipio-workspace/xcipio/LIS/src/CORE/GENMSG/lib/GenericMessageClass.C

/home/support/jenkins/jenkins20/workspace/xcipio-workspace/xcipio/LIS/src/CORE/GENMSG/lib/Generic_Payload.C

There are valid errors in the cpp report as well

<error id="arrayIndexOutOfBounds" severity="error" msg="Array &apos;printablePayloadStr[28]&apos; accessed at index 35, which is out of bounds." verbose="Array &apos;printablePayloadStr[28]&apos; accessed at index 35, which is out of bounds." cwe="119">

            <location file="xcipio/LIS/src/CLIENTLIB/GENVOIP/GenClientLib/src/Generic_Payload.C" line="493"/>

</error>

Please help!

Hi,

You should direct questions related to the Cxx plugin here: https://github.com/SonarOpenCommunity/sonar-cxx

Yes, sorry, I realized that late last night.  Anyways, let this thread be here for people with similar issues in the future.  :)

The first fix is to have ant based report path.  This is a case of my not RTFM

sonar.cxx.cppcheck.reportPath=./cpp_checkreport.xml should have been

sonar.cxx.cppcheck.reportPath=**/cpp_checkreport.xml

Secondly, cpp check does not follow soft links.  Turns our those files were skipped because they were valid softlinks.  

thanks
