Another factor is that this method does it at the solution level, not the project level. My solution has 39 projects. You do the math. :) I’m both happy to see this version, AND to find that “Run Code Analysis” exists at the project level; I rarely do ANYTHING at the project level (from the perspective of right-clicking and property pages).

I haven’t heard but I’m really hoping the move it down to VS 2010 pro. This is one of those must have features for a “professional” developer. I’m still shocked myself that fxCop has such horrible VS Pro integration. StyleCop integrates fully. It’s easy to use and gives warnings and errors that can stop a build. The price point of going from Pro to TS is quite painful and I’ve yet to be able to convince my bosses to pony up.

I had the same problem,
but the solution ist very easy:

use the FxCopCmd.exe instead of the FxCop.exe

And you will see, the checkbox will be enabled.

Thanks for this tip

Really? I honestly thought Professional had it. It’s quite shocking that it doesn’t.

Sean,

You’re talking about Code Analysis that is part of VS Team System. However, I’m using Visual Studio Professional that missing this feature.
