adding exclusions in sonar analysis properties

Question

I want to add sonar's analysis properties in jenkins in addition to exclusions available in sonar property file. So I have some exclusions in properties file and I added some in the analysis properties in jenkins, but when it scans it just excludes the ones given in analysis properties and not the property file. I want it to exclude both exclusions.

Answer 1

Properties are not cumulative. As described at the top of this page, there is a fallback structure and the first-found value is the one that's used from this order of checking:

Properties are not progressive. There's a proper structure and the first value found is the one that's used:

• command line
• properties file
• project-level properties defined in the UI
• global-level properties
