Running SonarQube analysis scan - SonarSource build-wrapper
I'm new to running SonarQube scans and I get this error message in the log in Jenkins:
16:17:39 16:17:36.926 ERROR - The only way to get an accurate analysis of your C/C++/Objective-C project is by using the SonarSource build-wrapper. If for any reason, the use of the build-wrapper is not possible on your project, you can bypass it with the help of the "sonar.cfamily.build-wrapper-output.bypass=true" property. By using that property, you'll switch to an "at best" mode that could result in false-positives and false-negatives.
Can someone please advise where I can find and run this SonarSource build-wrapper?
Thanks a lot for your help!
Answer
To solve this issue, download the Build Wrapper directly from your SonarQube Server, so that its version perfectly matches your version of the plugin:
Build Wrapper for Linux can be downloaded from URL
http://localhost:9000/static/cpp/build-wrapper-linux-x86.zip
Unzip the downloaded Build Wrapper, Configure it in your PATH because it's just more convenient
export PATH=$PATH:/path/where/you/unzip
Once done, Run below commands.
build-wrapper-linux-x86-64 --out-dir <dir-name> <build-command>
build-wrapper-linux-x86-64 --out-dir build_output make clean all
Once all this done, you have to modify your sonar-project.properties file with following line. Note the dir-name is same directory which we defined in previous command.
sonar.cfamily.build-wrapper-output=<dir-name>
and then you can run the sonar scanner command.
sonar-scanner
this will do the analysis against your code. For more details, you can check this link.
