Microsoft Announces Source Code Analysis for C#

Silverlight Logo

Interestingly, Microsoft has released a new tool that they've used for years internally to analyze code in their code base.  Its been informally called "StyleCop" and differs from FxCop in that it analyzes source code, not compiled binaries. 

If you are interested in consistency in your code base, you should take a look!

Comments:

Is there any similar tool or a check list for the SQL development?

Not that I know of but Red-Gate has some tools for refactoring of SQL code.

Team System Data Dude has MSBuild task as part of Power Tools that performs analysis of SQL scripts (similar to static code analysis).

Nice! Thanks Eugenez!

I guess they only released it for C# because VB programmers know how to write good code and have an IDE that makes it easier ;-)

It's only for validating MSFT's style. For example, if your guidelines mandate use of tabs over spaces, this tool will not accommodate.
