Example for excluding multiple rules

I tried the below in VSCode, but it doesn’t seem to be excluding anything…

{
  "output" : [ ],
  "rule" : [ ],
  "excludes" : [ 
    {
      "code" : "VAR_HAS_PREFIX_OR_POSTFIX"
    },
    {
      "code" : "MISSING_VAR"
    },
    {
      "code" : "VAR_INVALID_NAME"
    },
    {
      "code" : "MISSING_VAR"
    },
    {
      "code" : "FUNCTION_TOO_COMPLEX"
    }
  ],
  "includes" : [ ],
  "inheritParent" : false,
  "inheritPlugins" : true
}

If I restart VSCode when there is a .cflintrc file, it doesn't seem to do any linting.  If I remove it, it processes all rules, but I'm trying to find a way to exclude some.

I would be inclined to move some of the rather opinionated naming rules to be disabled by default in a future release - there are more important things to lint. IMO. Thoughts?

I’m not sure what’s going on specifically with VSCode and that might be a totally separate issue.

For a start: could you please test the .cflintrc file with plain command-line CFLint in your setup and let us know if that creates the results you expect?

@rsmolkin, when I run your example I get a “could not read config file” on the stderr.

IT does not like the duplicate MISSING_VAR, the following will work for you:

{
  "rule" : [ ],
  "excludes" : [
    {"code": "VAR_HAS_PREFIX_OR_POSTFIX"},
    {"code": "MISSING_VAR"},
    {"code": "VAR_INVALID_NAME"},
    {"code": "FUNCTION_TOO_COMPLEX"},
    {"code": "VAR_IS_TEMPORARY"},
    {"code": "SCOPE_ALLCAPS_NAME"}
  ], 
  "includes": [ ],
  "inheritParent" : true
}

I added a bit more info to the error message.
