New Post: Moidfy Rules with fxcop integrator &FXCop 1.36

sushiln7 — Tue, 26 Feb 2013 06:04:21 GMT

Hi,

I have installed FXCop Integrator & fxcop 1.36 on my machine with Visual Studio 2010.

I am able to run fxcop for the project by right clcking the project & click on code analysis.

But i am unable to edit the rules. Even if i am changing the the rulesset in the Cofigure Code Analysis still it shows same number of violations.

It creates a file CodeAnalysisConfiguration.xml in the project in the CodeAnalysis directory but i am not able to suppress some rules which i dont want to apply.

regards,
Sushil nembhani

New Post: FXCOP integrator with Visual Studio 10 Custom Rule

rsrinivasanhome — Sun, 07 Oct 2012 14:23:56 GMT

Looks like I found a solution:

The custom FXCOP dll must be placed into two "Rules" folder 1) FXCOP (Rules folder when you install fxcop) 2) Visual Studio - The Rules folder present in Visual Studio professonal.

The ruleset picks up rules from the Visual Studio folder. While FXCOP integrator picks the rules from the FXCOP folder . Unless you have the dll in both the rules folder you will not be able to use the custom rule.

rsrinivasanhome — Wed, 03 Oct 2012 13:52:34 GMT

I have tried creating a custom rule. When I try running the custom rule I am getting an entry in the CodeAnalysis.log.xml . I am not able to open the XML file in IE and can only open it in notepad. Here is a sample message from the xml file

<Messages>
<Message TypeName="AllTypeNamesShouldEndInFoo" Category="CustomRules.Naming" CheckId="CR1000" Status="Active" Created="2012-10-03

12:07:53Z" FixCategory="Breaking">
<Issue Certainty="100" Level="Warning">The name of type badlyCodedClass does not end with the suffix 'Foo'. Add the suffix to the

type name.</Issue>
</Message>

Am I missing any tags . For FXCOP integrator are they any madatory tags . Does anyone have a sample FXCOP custom rule working with FXCOP integrator ?

New Post: Suppression option in the Code Analysis Result window

sasaminn — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 02:16:53 GMT

Hi waynebeckley,

Thank you for using FxCop Integrator!!

I plan to slowly improve the message suppression feature. In FxCop Integrator 2.0.0, I added the "Suppress Message" section on the Rule Detail window. You can copy and paste SuppressMessage attribute manually.

From FxCop Integrator 2.0.0

I will improve this feature so that you can automatically add SuppressMessage attribute with context menu like the Code Analysis feature of VS 2010 Ultimate. Please wait next release!!

New Post: Disable rules for MSBuild task

sasaminn — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 01:40:48 GMT

Hi AndreasN,

Thank you for using FxCop Integrator.

The MSBuild task of FxCop Integrator uses FxCop Integrator configuration files ($(SolutionDir)\CodeAnalysisConfiguration.xml and $(ProjectDir)\CodeAnalysisConfiguration.xml), so you can disable rules with Ruleset if you edit the FxCop Integrator configuration your project to use Ruleset.

For information on how to use Ruleset, please refer to "How to customize FxCopCmd behavior", "How to use custom ruleset" and "How to use a single ruleset file for all projects in a solution".

Hi sasaminn,

First of all, excellent work on the integrator tool - it is a real life saver :)

According to the release notes for version 2.0.0, you added a feature "to let developers more easily add a "SuppressMessage" tag" - but I cannot figure out how to use this? Is there supposed to be a right-click option on the warning?

It will be a VERY useful feature.

Thanks!

Hi,

is it possible (and how) to disable a list of rules for the MSBuild task of FxCop Integrator? (I'm using Version 2.0.0 RTW).

Thanks

Andreas

New Post: Problem with VS2010 asks to repair or uninstall FxCop 10.0

sasaminn — Fri, 02 Dec 2011 02:30:04 GMT

Hi mkamran44,

Thank you for using FxCop Integrator!!

> When I go to analyze a project it passes the Code metric calculation but in step 2 analyzing it gives an error asking to repair or uninstall FxCop 10.0.

FxCop Integrator uses FxCopCmd.exe to analyze your code.
So, you have to specify not the FxCopSetup.exe path but the FxCopCmd.exe path.

If you install FxCop 10.0 to the default location, it will be C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Fxcop 10.0\FxCopCmd.exe.

> Also I do not know why my metrics path is
> C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Team Tools\Static Analysis Tools\FxCop
> This is where the download put the .exe. How come it is not under c:\Program Files

When you install a 32bit application to a 64bit machine, the 32bit app is located under C:\Program Files (x86), and it run under WoW64 when you execute it.
The Metrics.exe (Visual Studio Code Metrics Power Tools 10.0) is a 32bit app, so it is located under C:\Program Files (x86).

When I go to analyze a project it passes the Code metric calculation but in step 2 analyzing it gives an error asking to repair or uninstall FxCop 10.0. I am pretty sure that I gave the correct path to the .exe file

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1\Bin\FXCop.

I do see the FxCopSetup.exe file there .

this is 64 bit machine win7. What is interesting is that In my code Analysis progress window. I see

FxCopCmd.exe Version:?

Metrics.exe Version:10.0

I decided to hit the repair button but that did not fix the problem.

Also I do not know why my metrics path is

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Team Tools\Static Analysis Tools\FxCop

This is where the download put the .exe. How come it is not under c:\Program Files

New Post: Ignore Designer and Generated files

hfrmobile — Sat, 19 Nov 2011 11:21:44 GMT

Perfect! This would be an additional benefit for lot of developers and will save time too! :)

Of course there should be two settings (compared to StyleCop's setting to ignore such files)

ignore designer files (*.Designer.cs).
generated files (*.g.cs, *.generated.cs, etc.)

Keep up the good work and have a nice weekend!

Hi hfrmobile, thank you for your suggestion!!

That's for sure. It's good idea. I'll take it :)

New Post: Ignore *.Designer.cs

hfrmobile — Thu, 17 Nov 2011 09:03:51 GMT

Ok, I know that FxCop analyses the binary (.dll, .exe) file and not the source code.

But it maybe useful for the warnings output to ignore warnings from *.Designer.cs files? (or telling MS fixing their issues there ;-))

e.g. https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=9015C1E219CDFADA&id=9015C1E219CDFADA%21606#cid=9015C1E219CDFADA&id=9015C1E219CDFADA%213427

Hi colonelcolt.

No, for now. But, of course, I'll support VS11. After releasing FxCop Integrator 2.0.0, I'll work on.

sasaminn — Wed, 09 Nov 2011 13:44:31 GMT

Hi hfrmobile, thank you for your suggestion.

Certainly, it isn't so hard thing to implement a MSBuild target file and MSBuild tasks to integrate FxCop into build process.

I'll consider to add this MSBuild Integration feature in the future release.

colonelcolt — Wed, 09 Nov 2011 10:05:29 GMT

Is it possible to integrate FxCop to VS 2011?

New Post: MSBuild support

hfrmobile — Fri, 21 Oct 2011 11:28:33 GMT

The only missing thing is a MSBuild integration so that the rules are applied just when building the project. This would be useful for automated builds.

Other benefit: It would be easy to use FxCop with all VS versions supporting MSBuild (VS2005 and higher) and also Express editions of VS will benefit from it

Since this is already possible with StyleCop I assume that it is no big deal doing this for FxCop too?

e.g. StyleCop integration to MSBuild file:

<Import Project="$(ProgramFiles)\MSBuild\Microsoft\StyleCop\v4.3\Microsoft.StyleCop.targets" />
