[BUG]: PublishCodeCoverageResults@2 Error during reading file about azure-pipelines-tasks

[groogiam]

I've compared the two files generated by the .NET 8 runtime and .NET 7 Runtime. For some reason the filename in the .NET 8 generated one is a url to devops not an actual file path.

.NET 7

<class name="MyProject.CopyRequest" filename="C:\agent\my-agent\_work\1\s\src\MyProject\CopyRequest.cs" line-rate="1" branch-rate="1" complexity="1">

.NET 8

<class name="MyProject.CopyRequest" filename="https://dev.azure.com/MyOrg/MyProject/_apis/git/repositories/my-repo/items?api-version=1.0&amp;versionType=commit&amp;version=CommitHash&amp;path=/src/MyProject/CopyRequest.cs" line-rate="1" branch-rate="1" complexity="1">

The link being output appears to be a result of using the SourceLink flag. However unsetting this flag does not seem to fix the issue it changes the filename to be a relative path MyProject\CopyRequest.cs in .NET 8 where as it is a fully qualified path in .NET 7. In either case it seems like this was changed in .NET 8 and this task does not account for the change. I'm not sure if this should be addressed by the publish task, the .NET sdk or coverlet?

It looks like setting DeterministicReport true will revert the functionality to use a fully qualified path in .NET 8. However this flag is only supported by cobertura and not open cover. My particular configuration requires both as Sonar Cloud does not support cobetura. It really seems like this task needs to be updated to handle the path format change introduced via .NET 8 SDK.

I was able to to resolve this by just using the opencover format which is supported by PublishCodeCoverageResults@2 but not documented. The documentation page for this task https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/tasks/reference/publish-code-coverage-results-v2?view=azure-pipelines does not appear to list what formats are supported.
