I glanced through these, but most of these rules are very subjective and 
don't indicate technical debt in my opinion. For example the biggest 
source of "violations" is using underscore in field names, or non-private 
fields for example in our Messages classes. There might be some real 
problems buried in this data but there is so much noise they are hard to 
find. Is there somewhere we can configure these warnings?

Subject:        [e4-dev] Keeping code analysis in mind
Sent by:        [email protected]



Hi e4 committers/contributors,

I was looking at https://dev.eclipse.org/sonar/dashboard/index/10079 and 
wanted to propose that every now and then we keep in mind the technical 
debt that we accumulate while making commits. I started by opening a bug 
tracking the work that we do in this direction. Sonar allows you to drill 
down to LOC level so it's pretty easy to find critical code patterns (like 
catching Throwables etc).

Whether you do it in your next commit (comply to good-code-rules) or 
decide to do a clean up of previous code we would save ourselves trouble 
for later. Now that we configured the code analysis infrastructure it is 
time to use it.
