Connected Mode on SonarLint v2.0 on IntelliJ not w

Question

SonarLint v2.0 for IntelliJ is out now, and has this "connect to sonar server" feature, but even so, it seems it isn't in sync with my server rules.

Is it working for someone? I'm I missing a step? Or could it be a bug?

Thanks!

Answer 1

SonarLint, as of now, won't work with third party analyzers like PMD or FindBug, if you are using those, they will simple be ignored.

You can update your rules in SonarQube Server to only use rules defined in the SonarQube repository, most of them have an equivalent version.

Answer 2

Please check SonarLint console for details and open a thread on SonarLint Google group so that we can investigate.
