I am not sure about this tbh. NetBeans is a large project with an old code base and doesn't have a shortage of warnings or issues even without code scanners active. We are slowly modernizing the codebase but this takes time (see [cleanup label](https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pulls?q=is%3Apr+label%3A%22Code+cleanup%22)). We can't really speed this up since it would make review impossible and bugs will slip though. This will likely produce thousands additional warnings, some of them will be valid but a lot of them will be false positives or less important. Without someone committing to triage/investigate/fix those warnings this will just cause more noise without helping anyone. I am ok with code scanners and have also used CodeQL before with good results (on smaller and younger code bases), but maybe its still too early for this code base for it to be useful. cc @neilcsmith-net @matthiasblaesing @MartinBalin @sdedic @ebarboni opinions? Is anyone willing to spend time to fix/trigage the warnings? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
