Comment Feed for Channel 9 - FxCop For VS Achievements http://files.channel9.msdn.com/thumbnail/45465b7d-a017-4281-b244-ea026dc235a7.jpg Channel 9 - FxCop For VS Achievements You may notice that earning some of the achievements requires FxCop.  If you have Visual Studio 2010 Premium or Ultimate, you are all set, as FxCop gets redistributed with these products. However, if you have Visual Studio 2010 Professional, you will need to install FxCop from here. Note that it must be FxCop 10.0. en Wed, 19 Jun 2013 00:48:50 GMT Wed, 19 Jun 2013 00:48:50 GMT Rev9 Re: FxCop For VS Achievements Really guys? The FxCop "download" still points to a readme that tells you to install the Windows SDK and find the FxCop installer in the program files folder? Sigh...

Our solution has 18 projects and there are thousands of classes in solution. After i had build my solution, FxCop starts at background and CPU hits %98.

If we can optionally close FxCop, it will be better.

You can tell which ones require FxCop by looking at the description text of the achievement.

Same thing here. I use FxCop, it is installed, but it doesn't appear to know it is there. Help! I need my achievements!

I'm using ultimate edition, I've also installed FxCop from windows 7 7.1SDK as well.

 

I'm on a 64 bit system not sure if that helps. Regular chieves are workin' fine.

I'm running vs 2010 pro on Win 7 N Enterprise x64. I've ran FXCop as stand alone. I'm not sure how it integrates into vs directly.

I can see the rules for a lot of the fxcop achievements. However, when I analyze my project, or even a specific file that should get an achievement, the analysis is successful, but no achievement is gained. I assume there is still something that needs to be imported into fxCop to trigger achievements.

It must be the FxCop that comes with Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 4 Version 7.1.

Additionally, if you install FxCop 10.0 somewhere other than the default location ("Program Files"), the extension won't find it. We've logged this as a bug which we will address in a future release of the extension.

Install FxCop

Copy all Files from "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Fxcop 10.0" to "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Team Tools\Static Analysis Tools\FxCop"

(Note: replace "C:\Program Files" where applicable, e.g. "C:\Program Files (x86)" on 64 bit Windows)

Another thing, i uninstalled FxCop integrator just to be sure and the FxCop achievements still seem to work. So the FxCop Integrator might not even be necessary (it's still a nice extension though).

First, as said above, I was able to get FxCop running by merging the files from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Fxcop 10.0" into "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Team Tools\Static Analysis Tools\FxCop". This made it so FxCopCmd.exe would run.

Second, I had a number of referenced external assemblies that are loaded from the GAC. FxCopCmd would only run for a very short time and wouldn't generate any achievements. I copied all relevant assemblies into the output directory and that did it. It appears it won't load from the GAC.

However, on a side note, with these referenced assemblies... I wonder if it was in any way inspecting those... because I know I code very well and there are some achievements we got that we shouldn't have. For example, 100 fields in one class. Honestly, there is no way our code ever has over 20 or 30. That had to come from something else.

Too bad I need to uninstall this plugin. The command line for FxCop is 20971 characters long.
