Details

SonarLint is an IDE extension that helps you detect and fix quality issues as you write code. Like a spell checker, SonarLint squiggles flaws so they can be fixed before committing code. You can get it directly from the Eclipse Marketplace, and it will then detect new bugs and quality issues as you code (Java, JavaScript, PHP, Python and HTML).

If your project is analyzed on SonarQube or on SonarCloud, SonarLint can connect to the server to retrieve the appropriate quality profiles and settings for that project, as well as some additional languages support.

Discover more at www.sonarlint.org

SonarLint requires Eclipse to use Java 8+ as runtime (but you can analyze Java projects targeting older Java versions). For any question or feedback please join the SonarSource Community Forum .

Lombok Issues

Submitted by Johan Goosen on Fri, 2020-05-15 09:54

Also having the same issue with regards to lombok.

Using Eclipse Neon Release (4.6.0), SonarLint 5.1, Lombok 1.18.12.

Error:
When opening a Java file in Eclipse that uses Lombok annotations an exception is shown in the IDE:
An internal error occurred during: “SonarLint processing file /…java”.
lombok/launch/PatchFixesHider$Transform

Other related posts/forums suggest updating Lombok to 1.18.12 which did not resolve the issue for me.

Re: Lombok Issues

Submitted by Johan Goosen on Mon, 2020-05-18 10:54

The issue is indeed resolved with Lombok 1.18.12.

Upgrading lombok in your project dependencies is not enough, you have to update lombok agent used by Eclipse (check your eclipse.ini).

Doesn't work with Lombok

Submitted by Felix L J Mayer on Wed, 2020-02-19 13:49

We use Lombok (https://projectlombok.org/) to reduce boilerplate in our Java code. Lombok also runs as an agent to show the generated boilerplate code in the IDE. That seems to be a problem for SonarLint as it produces these messages:

An internal error occurred during: "SonarLint processing file /platform-api/src/test/java/com/elavon/eliminator/platform/authentication/LdapAuthenticationServiceTest.java".
lombok/launch/PatchFixesHider$Transform

I had to uninstall the SonarLint plugin because of that.

Re: Doesn't work with Lombok

Submitted by Johann Böck on Wed, 2020-03-04 10:02

After installing lombok 1.18.12 in my Eclipse 2019-12 works the Sonarlint fine. And Thanks for the hint to install the newest versions.

Re: Doesn't work with Lombok

Submitted by Jean-Baptiste Lievremont on Thu, 2020-02-20 02:48

Hello, thank you for your feedback.

There were a few reports on our community forum about problems due to interaction with Lombok - see e.g https://community.sonarsource.com/t/sonarlint-eclipse-plugin-eclipse-wit...

Could you please update to the lastest versions of both SonarLint and Lombok? In case of any issue, please report them on the aforementioned forum so that we can track them.

Plugin Eclipse c++

Submitted by Luiz Oliveira on Fri, 2019-03-15 17:29

Hey there!

I was wondering if there is already a plugin for Eclipse C/C++ development.

Cheers!

Re: Plugin Eclipse c++

Submitted by Julien HENRY on Mon, 2019-03-18 09:55

It is possible to use SonarLint in connected mode with SonarSource commercial C++ analyzer (assuming you are using CDT). You need to have a commercial version of SonarQube, or use SonarCloud. If you need help, please open a thread on SonarLint community forum.

Unable to find source of error

Submitted by Louis Voisine on Mon, 2018-06-18 05:50

I've installed SonarLint and correctly linked my project to my remote server and remote project, I've marked as 'excluded' all the library files of my project (Symfony PHP web project), but when I want to run an analysis, I always get the following error no matter the configuration :

An internal error occurred during: "SonarLint analysis of project dashboard (1 992 files to analyze, 14 excluded)".
Could not initialize class org.sonar.channel.ChannelDispatcher

If someone has already had the same error and knows how to solve it, any help is welcome !

I have the Market Place client installed. Any suggestions?

Re: Cannot install in Mars or Oxygen

Submitted by Rubens Monteiro do Nascimento Junior on Tue, 2018-08-07 17:16

Hi,

I fixed this problem adding in my eclipse.ini the next lines:

-Djsse.enableSNIExtension=false
-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
-Dhttps.protocols=TLSv1.2

Observation: I'm behind a proxy and configurated my proxy in windows --> preference --> proxy!

Re: Cannot install in Mars or Oxygen

Submitted by Julien HENRY on Wed, 2018-02-21 09:07

This is a composite update site, so Eclipse should be looking first for https://eclipse-uc.sonarlint.org/compositeContent.xml (which exists). If for some reason Eclipse can't get the compositeContent.xml it will try as a fallback fallback to get content.xml (that doesn't exists). So the message is misleading.

If you are behind a corporate proxy, I would check with your infra team why you can't fetch https://eclipse-uc.sonarlint.org/compositeContent.xml.

Re: Re: Cannot install in Mars or Oxygen

Submitted by Frank Glück on Fri, 2018-04-13 06:19

I have the same Problem, after "Confirm selected..." I got:

Unknown Host: //eclipse-uc.sonarlint.org/content.xml
eclipse-uc.sonarlint.org

If I try to open this URL in a browser:

Not Found

The requested URL /content.xml was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I can click on both of those links you provided, while in the office which does have a corporate fire wall, and I can retrieve both of the XML files.

Mismatch between Sonar server and sonar lint reported issue

Submitted by Alpesh Shah on Thu, 2016-12-01 08:29

Hi,

Goal of installing this plugin is to see issues before actually shown on build machine. However, for me issues in Eclipse reported by sonar lint is different from reported on server. We are using server version 5.6 and sonarlint version 2.3.1.
