Configuring StyleCop

It is possible to incorporate StyleCop results in the TICS output for C# files. StyleCop is a static analyzer from Microsoft. It checks a set of rules on C# source files.

Prerequisites

For a successful StyleCop integration, the following prerequisites must be met.

• StyleCop 4.3.0.8 must be installed/accessible on the TICS file server in chk\StyleCop. A suitable version is available on the TICS download site.
• If the TICS file server is on a network share, StyleCop must be granted permissions to be run from the share (it is a .NET application).

Basic configuration

The StyleCop analyzer requires the BUILDTYPE to be properly set.

A standard StyleCop rule configuration is available in the form of a IMPL.txt, RULES.txt pair.
