-ignoreFiles is working for a non-xml file , but it is not working for an *.xml file. To exclude all XML files
--ignoreFiles ".*\.xml"
was used but CLI is still scanning XML files.
Details
Only source files can be excluded with the --ignoreFiles option.
Workaround is to manually remove the *.xml files which you don't want to include, prior to analysis by Highlight.
Definitive Solution
Will be extended to all other files in a future release
