FxCop 1.35 Released!

  • Article

We are pleased to announce the release of FxCop 1.35. Please visit https://www.gotdotnet.com/team/fxcop to download it.

Changes since FxCop 1.32:

  • FxCop now only runs on .NET Framework 2.0, however, it supports analyzing all versions of .NET Framework.
  • Support for in source suppression via the SuppressMessageAttribute* (.NET 2.0 only).
  • New WiX-based installer
  • Ability to search GAC for missing references
  • New rule – Design\ExceptionsShouldBePublic
  • New rule – Usage\AttributeStringLiteralsShouldParseCorrectly
  • New rule – Security\SecurityTransparentAssembliesShouldNotContainSecurityCriticalCode
  • New rule – Security\SecurityTransparentCodeShouldNotAssert
  • New rule – Security\SecurityTransparentCodeShouldNotReferenceNonPublicSecurityCriticalCode
  • Noise reduction against generated code and C++/CLI

*In source suppression allows the exclusion of FxCop messages to be expressed in source by applying the System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessageAttribute to the relevant source item. Alternatively the attribute can be applied at the assembly level, specifying the target and scope of the suppression.

 

To obtain a well-formed SuppressMessageAttribute in FxCop, simply right-click on the message and choose Copy As -> SuppressMessage or Copy As -> Module-level SuppressMessage.

 

For more information about in-source suppression, see In Source Suppression Overview.

    Can I update FxCop in Visual Studio 2005 with this version, ( is this version "better" than whats in Vs2005? ).

    If not, can I import the new rules into Vs2005 atleast?

    It's great that a newer version has come out and is running on 2.0.  However, I don't have 2.0 installed and was looking for the 1.32 version that will run under 1.1.

    Where can I get that?

    Stu,

    You only need to install the .NET Framework 2.0. FxCop 1.35 supports analyzing both .NET 1.x and 2.0 assemblies. We do not recommend using FxCop 1.32 as it gives incorrect advice for some security rules, plus 1.35 has a heap of bugs fixes.

    Regards

    David
