I'm in the process of trying FindBugs via the Eclipse plugin out. I've some questions about the usage of the plugin. (I'm currently not using my development PC so I may not use he correct terms.)
1) How do I use FindBugs filter files without putting the files in the Eclipse project directory? I've multiple Eclipse projects and I intend to use the same FindBugs filter files for each project. I don't want to duplicate the filter files which will make the files hard to maintain. When adding a filter file with the Eclipse plugin the file browser uses the project home as root directory. How do I add an external filter file?
2) How do I hide a FindBugs bug / warning? After reviewing a bug / warning and marking it (i.e. fix) I don't want the bug / warning get in my way. The bug / warning still is displayed in the FindBugs tree view and in the Eclipse Problems view. What is the correct way of using the FindBugs Eclipse plugin to don't have to review the same bugs / warnings over and over again?
Any help appreciated, thanks!
