Sonarqube support for CppCheck results

[Akash Hanumanthu Patil]

My project requires me to display cppcheck .xml results in SonarQube. I have installed Enterprise edition of Sonarqube with Version 8.7.1 (build 42226). I have followed the instructions as mentioned at https://github.com/SonarQubeCommunity/sonar-cppcheck , but the Sonarqube server crashes immediaetly. Is cppcheck still supported in Sonarqube latest version ?

Error in Sonarqube log:

We have not been involved in the SonarQube addon so I have no idea what the status of that is.

Their latest commit in that sonarcube-cppcheck repo was 5 years ago so I'd think there is likely some change in SonarQube so the addon would need some little tweak.

I don't know what's exactly included in SonarQube Enterprise but I am using the Community edition with this 3rd-party(!) plugin for C++ support: https://github.com/SonarOpenCommunity/sonar-cxx

Any problems should be reported to the developers of the according software.
