Project Description

StyleCop analyzes C# source code to enforce a set of style and consistency rules. It can be run from inside of Visual Studio or integrated into an MSBuild project. StyleCop has also been integrated into many third-party development tools.

4.7 - compatible with JetBrains R# 5.1( 5.1.3000.12), R# 6.0 (6.0.2202.688) and R# 6.1.1 (6.1.38.146). NOT COMPATIBLE WITH 6.1 RTM

This release includes the StyleCop ReSharper plugin (compatible with ReSharper 5.1, 6.0 and 6.1.1 NOT 6.1 RTM) and will automatically uninstall previous versions of StyleCop. It also includes syntax support for the Async CTP and the first few of StyleCop compliant Visual Studio default templates are now included too.

Core Principles

• StyleCop provides value by enforcing a common set of style rules for C# code. StyleCop will continue to ship with a single, consistent set of rules, with minimal rule configuration allowed. Developers can implement their own rules if they so choose.

• StyleCop ships with the ability to seamlessly integrate with Visual Studio, MSBuild, TFS, etc. Developers are free to implement custom code to integrate StyleCop into other development and tooling environments, as described in the SDK documentation.
