Microsoft Source Analysis for C# 4.2 was published

Microsoft has published a great tool called Microsoft Source Analysis for C#, formerly known as StyleCop.

This tool allow us to review and improve our source code quality. It's is fully integrated with Visual Studio, so with a single right click in a solution, project or file, we can check our code against the best practices defined in a series of rules depicted below.

You will find a detailed explanation on the Announcing the release of Microsoft Source Analysis for C# post and download the latest bits from here.

 

Also you can customize which rules should be checked using the built-in configuration tool.

Finally, another good point is that we can integrate that tool on our build process with MSBuild. I recomend you the Jason Allor's blog post on the Source Analysis Blog page where he explains how to do that.

Here is another good post from MSBuild Team Blog also, announcing this release.

Enjoy it and say goodbye to the documents with code-standards :)
