This plugin generates the trend report for compiler warnings in the build log  

Description


 
The Warnings plug-in scans the build log for compiler warnings and reports the number of warnings found. This plug-in is part of the suite of static code analysis plug-ins that are documented on a separate WIKI page.

  • Support for javac (ant, maven, command line), Eclipse Java Compiler, JavaDoc Compiler, Hudson HPI, MSBuild, GCC, GNU Linker, SUN Studio C++, Gnat (Ada), Erlang compiler warnings and Oracle Invalids
  • Build summary showing the new and fixed warnings of a build
  • Trend reports showing the number of warnings in corresponding colors
    • Severity Trend: visualizes the number of warnings per severity
    • Threshold Trend: visualizes the number of warnings below and above the health thresholds
  • Overview of the found warnings per module, package, category, or type
    • Parsing of Maven pom.xml or Ant build.xml configuration files to obtain the module or project name
    • Parsing of Java or C# files to obtain the package or name space name
  • Detail reports of the found warnings optionally filtered by severity (or new and fixed)
  • Colored HTML display of the corresponding source file and warning lines:
    • Direct link to the warning line
    • Highlighting of single lines as well as line ranges
    • Highlighting of multiple line ranges per warning (different color for primary range)
    • Tool tip describing the warning message
  • Failure threshold to mark a build as unstable
  • Configurable project health support
  • Works with the freestyle and native m2 build option of Hudson (activated on goal compile)
  • Localization available for: DE (Please help to localize findbugs for your locale!)

The current release is available in the download section. This plug-in is developed and maintained by Ullrich Hafner. Please use the Hudson mailing lists or issue tracker to ask questions, create feature request or bug reports, since I don't read the comment section on this page regularly.
