How do you add lint rule exceptions for java modules / relative paths in Android?

Question

I have an Android project that has the typical myproject/app/ directory along with another separate java module myproject/mymodule/.

How do I add exceptions for mymodule? Using relative paths in app/lint.xml doesn't seem to work.

Answer 1

Add a new lint.xml in the root of your module, and it'll be picked up (in this case create a new file myproject/mymodule/lint.xml)
